Outline for the New Year

Hi all! I hope you've had a wonderful, relaxing break like I have. It's time to get back to work though!

I always get pretty excited for a new year. It just seems full of endless possibilities! So much can happen in a year, even though (depending on the context) a year can seem like a very short amount of time!

This year I have made a bucket list of things that I want to accomplish before the year is over, so I thought I would share and encourage you to do the same!

1. Get back in shape!
2. Limit eating out to no more than once a month.
3. Finish the school year with no less than $200 in the bank.
4. Pass each class with at least a B-.
5. Workout at least 4 days every week.
6. Make 3 new great friends!
7. Buy the Harry Potter books 1-5 (I already own 6 & 7).
8. Be able to run 2 consecutive miles by March.
9. Be more positive about myself.
10. Be more outgoing.
11. Only take the bus when the weather is bad.
