My News Years Resolution is to make more mellow time for myself. I came into work today after taking over a week off (my longest non-work break since college) and even though I was bombarded with the usual BS, I couldn't even get worked up because I felt so relaxed. I want to keep this feeling going through the whole year!

My new year's resolution is to take more pictures! Looking back on the year, after I came back from my semester abroad, I stopped taking pictures. It's time to get back to recording my memories. Happy New Year!

Kirsten Dahlhauser said...

I don't usually do "resolutions" due mainly to the fact that, well, simply stated i always set myself up for failure. THIS year however...is different. My resolution is not to eat better, work out more often, watch less TV, or get a handful of projects done. It is, instead, to take a step back and look at the relationships in my life and decided whether or not they are positive, peaceful and encouraging. I want to surround myself and fill my space with positive energy and things as i grow into adulthood (hello 1.5 months away from 25 y/o) and grow in my marriage. This may mean firing some from my life, and addint others more in full...my resolution is to figure this all out and act upon it. To fill myspace with positivity, peace and encouragement.

Lindsay said...

I'm not calling it a "resolution", but one of my goals for 2011 is to document my life more. I want to take more pictures and journal more often.

See the rest of my 2011 goals here:
