Reflections & Resolutions

I've got such an exciting year ahead of me. In a little more than a week, I'll be boarding a plane to Europe to spend the spring semester as an exchange student. Then, in the fall, I will return to the University of Oklahoma where I'll be reunited with my campus and friends after a nine month absence.

2012 was good to me. I met many wonderful people who helped me grow into a better person. I was fortunate enough to spend my summer working at my childhood summer camp with some of my oldest and truest friends as coworkers. I achieved great things both inside and outside the classroom, learning fascinating things on a daily basis.

It's only fitting that I list my resolutions for the new year on this blog. My resolutions are simple and personal. They might not be super serious, but hey, I'm only nineteen! However, they are all things that require constant vigilance to achieve success. In a year where I'm presented with so many life-changing opportunities, I feel it is only fitting to maximize my personal growth. Without further adieu, here are my resolutions for 2013.

I will....

• be more assertive 
• try harder to get what I want.
• be a better flirt.
• not be bothered by the little things.
• travel a lot.

2013, please be nice to me.
