HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Obviously January is the month when most people set their resolutions for the year. I’ve decided to instead, just continue with my Happiness Project, and then in September, when it’s over, decide how to proceed from there. I guess my overall resolution is to complete this project, and carry it on into the future!
I’m super excited about my January Happiness Project. It’s time to create (and rekindle) some friendships, and I have lots of stuff planned!
Here are my goals:
- Reach out. I don’t initiate plans with friends often, and unfortunately, I allow twitter, facebook, and texting to consistute communicating far too often. It’s time to have some real conversations!
- Listen/Stop Talking. I’m a talker, everyone knows that. I need to shut my mouth and listen to what is going on in everyone else’s life!
- Bring people together. We have quite a few different sets of friends, that we normally wouldn’t hang out with together. I’m excited to introduce some of them to each other!
- Make new friends. I need to find ways to meet new people in Pittsburgh! I still don’t know many people here, and it’s sad.
- Show up. A lot of times, when I get invited to do things, I choose to stay home with myself. It’s time to say yes and show up at events where my friends will be!
Here are just a few things I hope to have going on this month:
- Housewarming party! What better way to bring people together?
- Book Club. I’ve been trying to start a book club with some of the” significant others” of Justin’s friends. Everytime we’re together we talk about all loving the same books, so it’s time to make it official. We’re going to start with Divergent, since we all loved the Hunger Games!
- TPA Dinner. My sorority sisters get together once a month for dinner and I’ve never been able to go. This time, I’ll be there!
- Girls Night with Maggie and Jess. It’s a monthly event that hasn’t happened in a couple months. I miss them!
Did you set any new year’s resolutions for 2012? What goals are you setting for yourself this month?
