Goals Schmoals!

For the first time in a really long time, I didn't set any New Year's goals/resolutions. And I'm really glad I didn't because I'm sure one of my goals would have been to be better at maintaining my blog. I would have failed miserably already! 2008 has been fun so far. I welcomed in the New Year with some of my very best friends as they played American Idol Karaoke (I was a back up singer. I just can't bring myself to sing in front of anyone!). I started school at SLCC on the 7th. I'm taking Accounting 2010 and it's HARD! But I've made some friends and I think we'll make it through the semester together. I've been on 2 dates, and even went to Institute one night. I've survived the miserably cold weather we've had but I'm ready for Spring. I love sunshine and being warm (I endured Autumn but I'm done dealing with this cold weather). Oh yeah, I went to my first NBA game on the 10th (Jazz vs Suns) and I had a blast. I'm becoming more of a fan of basketball as I watch more Jazz games and get to know the team a little. If the rest of the year continues like the last few weeks, I think it will be a great year!

Adios 2007, Aloha 2008!

As I look back over the last year, I am amazed by everything that has happened! 2007 was a wonderful year for me in so many aspects of my life.



Physically

  • I lost over 60 pounds! (My greatest accomplishment of the year!)
  • I went down 4 pant sizes
  • I ran the "Race for the Cure" 5K in May
  • I accomplished my goal of being able to run a mile in 10 minutes
  • I've grown my hair out

Socially

  • Travelled, travelled, travelled! I went to Arizona (2), Anaheim, Denver, Jackson Hole Wyoming (2), St. George, France/England/Scotland (I got stamps in my passport!), & Chicago
  • I went on more dates in 2007 than I have in the last 8 years
  • I made more friends than I ever have (and kept them all!)

A few more random things:

  • I read more books in 2007 than I ever have in a year
  • Saw two Broadway Musicals (Les Miserables in SLC & London and Wicked in Chicago)
  • Went to my first Major League Soccer game (and loved it)
  • Saw Josh Groban in concert (AMAZING!!)
