Day 28 & 08

Day 28- A picture of you last year and now, how have you changed since then?

Day 08- Short term goals for this month and why.

Combining two days because I feel what I talk about in this post.... covers both :)

This is pretty much exactly a year ago... the get together with some of my best friends for my 20th birthday last year :) and I saw them again this year for my 21st birthday. LOVES!!

Last year I...

- Turned 20 years old

- Was looking forward to a trip up to San Francisco (my first time!)

- Was starting my last year of school

- Had a fairly short a-line bob haircut that was medium-brown

- Was just starting to collect nail polish

- Was still very much into photography

This year I...

- Turned 21 years old

- Am looking forward to either a roadtrip up to Portland or a flight down to Mexico

- Recently graduated and am looking for more work

- Am moving back to my parents' house to save money and to spend some more time with my family as well.

- Am growing my hair out, and it's pretty much back to being natural (color)... BUT I am thinking of dying it back to a lighter brown

- Have a fairly large collection of nail polish... as well as other cosmetics.

- Am very much into cinematography (possibly moreso than photography, but we'll see).

- Have my own company (partnership with the boyfriend): Black Swan Imagery

- Am back on my road to being more of an independent person (5-6 years ago, one of the first thing people thought of when trying to describe me was "independent"), though I don't think this will affect my current relationship (for you naysayers).

- Am trying to reconnect with some old friends.. and feel that my relationship with my brother has gotten better.

- Am going to start working out and getting back into good physical condition and living a healthy lifestyle.

I guess what I'm trying to say is... this year, I feel like it's time to focus on myself a little more, especially since I don't have books and school to drown myself under. Find out what I like to do and do it, figure out what I want and how to get it or get there, find the people that I love and spend time with them, focus inside and stay centered. I've turned a notebook (gift from Cuzzo, thank youuu!) into a personal diary -- writing down everything I do during the day. At the end of the week, I'll look back at it and reflect and see if I'm doing everything I can do, how to utilize my time better, etc. FOCUS!
