What My New Years Resolutions Actually Are

1) Write more letters. I don't think this actually benefits anything, but it's something I like to do, and since people will be moving after they graduate, I want to stay in touch. I don't expect anyone will respond, but it's a nice way to sit and reflect on life.

2) Write more. I wrote more in 2010 than ever before, which is good. But the summer of 2010 is on the low list of favorite summers, and did not include much writing at all. I hope I find balanced routine when I graduate. (The one aspect that pulls summer 2010 up are all of the visitors we had. Yay visitors! Everyone come visit Wilmington this summer! What brought it down was working a job that I liked but had a stressful deadline, along with working a job that I didn't like for various reasons, yet took up all my time. Oh well, lesson learned!)

3) Go to the beach more. Because that's my favorite place in the world, and sharing a car and having a husband who doesn't quite buy into the idea that a perfect day is just sitting for six to eight hours are not good excuses to get my booty down there as much as possible.

4) Read the Bible more. If only I didn't have to put this on my list most years.
