This semester is quickly coming to an end!
This summer I will have a lot of free time, so I figured instead of being a bum I would make some goals I would like to work on.
1. Get in better shape. Eating/cooking healthier, getting more exercise (new gym classes), more use of my bike, buy new rollerblades, go for walks daily.
2. Paint again. I miss this old hobby of mine. I'm aiming to get some new decorative pieces for my room, and possibly start/finish that painting I promised Jeremy two years ago...
3. Read more. I want to continue learning more about effective counseling techniques, but would also like to get back into reading for fun.
4. Beach trips. I feel so relaxed when I'm at the beach, that I think I would really benefit from increased beach trips.
5. Weekend getaway. As much as I love traveling with friends and family, I've never been away on my own. I think a couple days to just spoil myself with spa treatments, and have some alone time to reflect would be great for clearing my mind and de-stressing.
6. Bake sale. I'm planning on using my culinary talent for good. Invites will be sent later on, but I'm planning on holding two different get-togethers/bake sales to raise money for two great causes.
7. Spend more time with Jeremy. Our busy semesters don't let us spend enough time together...
8. Improve my cooking skills. I think they're getting better, but I would really love to spend more time cooking meals completely from scratch and experiencing the pride and satisfaction from reaching a final (and successful) meal.
9. Catch up with old friends. I've been feeling disconnected from a lot of people lately, and I know it's no one's fault, life happens, but I do miss a lot of friendships that used to be much stronger.
10. Clean my room. My room is not necessarily a "mess", but I want to get rid of all the old things I don't use that are just taking up space.
