stop wasting my time on people that aren't worth it
One of the hardest things 2 months ago

I’ve ever had to do. I’ve had a number of relationships fail for one reason or another. Some were my fault, some were in the fault of others. The thing I’ve learned most of all is that most of the time the fault doesn’t matter, what matters is are you comfortable spending your time with the people you choose to have around you?

If no, then move on. No matter how painful it may be. That’s the biggest lesson I’ve taken from this goal. It may not be the same for you, but it is what it is in my life.

I can’t keep on the way I’ve always done things. We live we learn, and I’ve changed quite a bit. I want to be everything I’ve dreamt of being despite what anyone thinks I can do. I know what I’m capable of and I’ll achieve it!

So here’s to starting anew and slowly letting the pain subside with hurts of the past.



sing jazz
Small attempts 4 months ago

I tried a couple of standards at karaoke just to see how I’d feel doing it. It was fun, but I don’t just want to sing… I want to SING! So now I’d really like to find somewhere beautiful to sing and sing like I mean it to feel accomplished! I really want to find the perfect song so I can feel like a real singer, even if it’s only for a night.



learn a foreign language
and actually speak it 4 months ago

Fluently! I’ve taken ASL (not technically foreign…), Spanish, Italian, Latin, a little bit of German and French and I don’t really speak any of them. I have a good generalized understanding of things that are going on in the language and conversations, but I certainly can’t speak any of them.
