So I realize this New Years post is a little late, but better late then never, right!?  Every year my cousin, Mary, and I get together to plan our New Years Resolutions.  It's our little tradition.  Last year, I had 25 resolutions.  We felt ambitious that night.  Here are the 10 out of 25 that I kept!

1.  Work my networks.  Email, visit, or have coffee with each professor 1-2x per month.
2.  Don't buy things at the grocery store that I would later regret eating.
3. Get a job offer and move to a new place.
4. Major on the majors and minor on the minors-- don't get so worked up over the little things.
5. Read 1 bible verse each morning to inspire me that day.
6. Say "hi" to everyone I walk by that I know.
7. Clean the house before it feels like I need to clean the house.
8. Have set lunch dates 3x per week.
9. Sing in front of people.
10. Don't commit to a boyfriend that I have a bad gut feeling about or before I have a job.

I haven't made my New Year's Resolutions for 2013 yet, but they're in the works-- maybe tomorrow!  I'm thinking about 10 resolutions instead of 25.  I'll end this post with some of my favorite memories captured on camera in 2012.

Having my best friend, Britnie, visit for my birthday weekend!  Lots of fun! August, 2012.
