I am very proud of all of the things my 28 years have accomplished so far. I have seen such beauty, experienced the truest love, laughed till I cried, experienced heart ache, survived medical school (which is a feat in and of itself) and have a lot to be proud of. (I just realized that this is quite a lil love fest I'm having for myself...that's kinda fun).
I have a lot of things I'd like to accomplish as a 28 year old. My 28 year old resolutions:
1. get the slammin' 28 year old body I want! wahoo!!
2. embrace a lovely and harmonious marriage with the one I love most
3. begin my surgical training to be a top notch physician (officially graduate in June!!)
4. take advantage of weekends for more local exploration
5. finish my first quilt (I've taken close to 7 months off from working on it...it's about time I begin again)
6. quit buying sh*t clothes :-) I really need to quit buying stuff on sale just because it's onsale...and instead buy great pieces of clothing that I can cherish in multiple ways.
7. mix up the classics I haven't read yet with the chick-lit I've been pouring over (hehehe...Twilight...it's more of an addiction)
8. cook at least one real meal per week...using new recipes each time (oooooo fun!)
9. become more politically aware/tolerant
10. work on my mad photog skills
10 is a good list to start with I think. Happy birthday self. This is going to be a GREAT year!
Happy, Happy Day. I love the idea of a birthday resolution list. It's a natural time for reflection and planning for the future...and your list looks achieveable. You're already moving forward on all 10 of those resolutions.
ReplyDeleteTwenty-eight will be an amazing year for you.
Happy Birthday, freckles! I stumbled upon your blog while looking for pics of barren trees to paint...I've never even read a blog before, but started reading yours and was captivated. you are simply adorable! I am turning 58 in a few weeks and believe it or not,Our styles are sooo similar that it makes me laugh! I've just started painting for the first time and I'm sooo enjoying it.(With 2 teenagers, it's finally time for me to have alittle "me" time) I wish you well with your uncoming career and marriage! I'll be checking in to see more of your very cool inspirational blogs! Esther
