Other people are probably well underway with theirs but I was still cultivating mine. I've come up with quite a few things that I need to fix in order to grow and be a better me and they are as follows:
BLOG MORE: I often find myself at loss for words verbally,but when it comes to typing or writing I can't be stopped. A lot of things often go unexpressed because my mind moves faster then my mouth and with typing I am able to erase and constantly revise things to more appropriately express what I am trying to express. I see things around me,that I feel an urgency to address and with blogging,I am able to reach so many people and perhaps spark a dialogue.
My field is Journalism and writing has always been a passion. I have a blog,and shall Utilize it.
Get/Stay in shape: I know I'm not really out of shape visually but my body creeks and cracks a lot and I'm only 21. I've decided that I will work out more to limber up and perhaps sculpt a slimmer waist and some shapely calves. I've been looking in to a yoga class at Charm City Yoga in towson.It starts on the Jan 26th, I'll keep u posted on how that goes. I am also gonna make it a point to hit the treadmill twice a week/4 miles a week.This will help with my calf situation(hopefully).
Find something that works for my skin and hair: Since I was 12 I've been plagued with acne( BLAH)I feel like I've tried everything under the sun, proactive,oral prescriptions, neutrogena. .ect and nothing has ever worked all the way. Some would stop the break outs but do nothing for scarring,others would just make my face dry and peely.Nothing worked for everything. I'm so tired of strangers suggesting home remedies like I don't know what my face look like. It hurts sometimes. But yeah I'm gonna find out what works for me! I think I might have found it. After extensive searching and asking around I've discovered African Black Soap. The first week(which was last week) was pretty brutal but I'm pleased with the results. I'm gonna keep on using it . Although I have been natural for a year,maintaining my hair is still very new to me. This year, I am going to take more time in figuring out what my hair needs. I may even make my own hair goodies. My hair is healthy but I am a hair style fiend.I love getting my hair done and maybe that's not a good thing. I need to learn to do it myself and leave it alone.*I'll touch more on this in another blog*
Read More:Simply put.
Be more sympathetic and patient with my mother: My mother is a recovering alcholic and at times I find myself become very short and fustrated with her actions and behavior. Much of her behaviors can be contributed to years of abuse,that are going to take alittle time to spring back from. My getting angry and "coping an attitude" with her does not help the situation. As of today she has been sober for over a month and I am soo proud of her but the way we interact at times could say otherwise. I need to show my support more,take more time explaining things,and acknowledge the strides that she made to get to this point.
Be less Cynical: Although the world has some bad people,everyone should not be treated as such. .
Those are my major resolutions I'm working on.There are some minor ones as well but I'll tell you about those when we come up on those later one. l'll also keep you posted on how I am coming along on my major resolutions. How you growing in 2010?
