Things to do this year...

1. Read the classics. 

I'm sick of finding myself reading horribly written books because that's what the public suggested. Most recently 50 Shades of Gray and The Edge of Never. We get it, he's perfect. And not real. And stop biting your damn lip and blushing every five seconds.

2. Go running or do pilates/yoga when you start to feel upset 

Stop! Don't send that text message! (And that does not mean to wait until you are upset to get a little exercise.)

3. Look at  job postings every day

If you feel like your job is just okay, it's time to move on, sister. You never know what will pop up. And hey, maybe you'll even apply.

4. Reach out to a long distance family member at least once a week. 

They're not going to be here forever. And they're family, they have to let you annoy them- chances are, they'll kinda like it.

5. Take More Pictures

We don't even have to make photo albums anymore, just take the picture! So why do I keep forgetting to take more when the moments present themselves?

6. Stop thinking about the future and live in the present

Blame it on video games, the media, shitty parenting. Whatever option makes the most sense to you, one thing has become truer and truer; adults are finding themselves much later in life than they were 50 years ago. Maybe because everyone thought that getting married and having babies was finding yourself.  So if you're nearing 30 and upset by all the baby pictures on facebook when you're not even dating, just stop and live. Just live.
