Start of my Blog

Well, here it is 2012. I have high hopes for the year. From school to work to relationships, I feel that this could be my year.
I am not where I planned on being in life at this age. I always planned on being married with children, owning a house, and having a career that I am successful in. Alas, that is not the case. I am soon to be 33 years old, single, broke as a joke, and back in college. I am finally figuring out that I need to just be content with who I am and where I am going in life. Let things work out rather than trying to force fate to happen. Many of you have seen this already, but I chose three New Years resolutions that I hope to work on throughout the year to make me better:

1) Stop stressing and thinking into things so much! I always worry about stupid shit and take it out on people I care about. It's a bad habit that I have had as long as I can remember. I have ruined relationships and friendships because of it. I have a tendency to try to fix problems that don't exist and by doing so, I create problems. I just need to sit back and go with the flow.
2) Take care of myself by diet and exercise. I am visiting a nutritionist and have started running again. I am supposed to start lifting with a buddy soon. It is amazing how great I feel when I work out, but damn it is hard to get motivated at times.
3) Cut back on my partying. I am not sure if I party too much or not. Most of the friends I am around are in college (we all know that college is known for partying and drinking and waking up in a stranger's bed). I've decided that it is in my best interest to stop going out so much. It's not worth spending the money to feel shitty.

It takes time to change, and it will be a process. I just know I need to do something to feel successful in this life. I wish you all the best in 2012!!
