2010 Non-resolutions

2009 December 28

I’m hesitating writing down resolutions because I feel like I always break them — that never feels good. Setting up obtainable resolutions like I did last year does not seem right either. But I still need some type of goal to reach for. It’s nice to just think and re-evaluate what I want… well, here they are:

  1. Career-life decisions: Get it together and study for the GRE’s and look at grad school possibilities. Or else I think it may never happen. Could I get it together and be in school by 2012? I need to make a decision. Choose a path. I’ve already thought about what I might possibly study/research.
  2. Emotional-personal-life: This is a tough one. Oh my god, what do I want? All I know for sure is that I will work hard on all relationships (including friends & family) — the ones that matter. What may follow may be dating, relationship and even emotional connections with the past.
  3. Living situation: This comes third, but I do still need to plan for where I want to be eventually. New York City is the present, and I’m not in a hurry to change this, but mentally I need to prepare for what may come. Truthfully, if I face an amazing opportunity — school or job-wise, I’m ready to pack up. But this is serious because I’m considering international. Canada still comes to mind as a viable option… so does the Europe. Need to research.

2009 had been a serious year in terms of working/career: it was working all year besides the two trips back to California. Though 2010 may be a little less structured, I’d say it would be more serious since it’ll guide me for at least a while! School… job… it’s time for a change of direction for the better!
