Late-Starters...

Alright-y. I've officially decided that I am never going to fail another class again. I realize now that even though using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of "x" in an isosceles right triangle will NEVER help me in life, I still have to pay attention and do my work in class so I can graduate, so I can move out, so I can go to college, so I can get a job, so I can make lots and lots of money... And So I Don't Get Grounded For Four Months!
I also realized that talking back gets you no where. But also ignoring doesn't either. Or talking too much, or talking too less... I guess the only real way to get somewhere is to do what your asked the right way, the first time, and the most efficiently. Wow. I just had an epiphany. My mother would be proud.

Which leads me to my point, it's time to start my new years resolutions--now that we are a little over half way through 2010.
Resolution 1: Enjoy life.
Resolution 2: Find the happy-medium of pleasing others and myself.
Resolution 3: Get perfect abs/Stretch More/Work out.
Resolution 4: Accomplish Bucket-List Items.

I'd say that is a pretty hefty list.

In order to enjoy life, I must first figure everything out. I must decide what is good for me and also what is bad. I have to throw out the things I don't need--mentally and physically. I must do what's right for me AND for others! I have to do what is right, even if I don't always think it is... I must listen to adults, not talk to them like they are the child (the half the time I find they are...) I must be a good person, not bad or mean or cruel or stupid or bitchy or horrible or immature or vicious or negligent or any of the other names I've been called by those so close as family members.

Then, in order to find that happy medium of thinking of others and still caring for myself, I must just do that. There isn't complications here. I must be a little less self-centered, and a little more helpful. (I've been called vain a lot too... Personally I don't think I am better than anyone, but apparently that's the way I present myself... Or so I have been told.)

Next--yes, speaking of vain, it is about myself--I need flat abs. I have been feeling pretty bleck like lately. I can poke at my stomach and squoosh on the bottom half. (The top is a TWO PACK!!!) I'm on a mission to have perfect abs, and really they don't have to be flat, just toned... I also need to stretch and exercise more, because I, like I said before, am feeling out of shape.

And finally, I must accomplish Bucket-List items. (I have over 150...) Maybe call Sean Connery up and beg him to "please say PISTACHIO!!!!" Maybe even kiss on top of the ferris wheel at the fair, or under water, or in the pouring rain. Maybe eat some more exotic food. Maybe travel more... Who knows? The list is endless. (Literally, I think of something new at least every day...)

Ashley Greene (Ha, yes I am using a quote from a Twilight star...) said in a Seventeen interview, that "If I decide I want to do something, there's no stopping me."

Let's see if I can take up the challenge!

[Ooh, another thing to add: I'm going to try and blog more... (:]
