New Years Resolutions For 2010

As 2009 draws to a close, I've been thinking back over this year and forward to the year ahead. There have been some massive highs and deep lows this year for me but there are several things I'm proud of and several things that are still left to accomplish...

Things I'm proud of from this year:

1. Finishing my Masters degree.
2. Moving into a place of my own and being strong enough to live by myself.
3. Being with my Drummer Boy for another year <3
4. Loosing a little over a stone in four months. I did it healthily through a controlled diet and exercise and feel amazing!
5. Finishing my first novel.
6. Adopting my little cat and turning her from a skinny, jumpy little thing into a relaxed and happy creature :)
7. Being strong enough to walk away from people who are negative or constantly full of drama.
8. Not letting all the drama that did happen bring me down.
9. Finding a new job and not giving up when the job hunt was tough.
10. Reading lots of new books and constantly updating my knowledge of the industry.

Things that I want to accomplish next year:

1. Get an agent.
2. Get my first novel published.
3. Save up enough money to go on holiday for at least ten days with my Drummer Boy.
4. Finish my new novel.
5. Loose the last half a stone and get back into my size eight jeans.
6. Learn to speak Spanish fluently.
7. Make more time for my family.
8. Work on strengthening friendships that have slipped away in recent years.
9. Learn to play the guitar, at last!
10. Find a way to be less stressed and to enjoy life more.
