New Year!

Happy New Years! I hope you and your families had a great time and have a wonderful 2012! Instead of making resolutions this year I am just going to roll them into my "25 things to do before I turn 26" that I posted around my birthday. So here is a recap of how I am doing on those goals.


1. Train for and run a 5K. I am signing up for a race on Super Bowl Sunday! (Doing good on the training program. Having mono threw me off but I am back and loving running. I have a race scheduled for almost every month this year! Hopefully a half marathon in October. I even have a pinterest board dedicated to it!)
2. Maintain this blog on a consistent basis. (haha. I am going to try really hard to get better at this!)
3. Learn how to make sushi. (I looked into supplies and when I get some 'fun' money I am going to buy them and  try out sushi making.)
4. Advance myself to the next carrer level in Mary Kay. (In progress)
5. Pay off my credit card debt (oops. I just joined Mint so hopefully that will help me out.)
6. Make a plan for each week and stick to it (Failing at this one. It is so hard to cook for one person.)
7. Make a cleaning schedule and stick to it (Made it and put it in the side bar. We just deep cleaned the apartment so maybe I'll actually stick to it.)
8. Cook more often (uhhh yeah..got to work on that one)
9. Be healthier (I'm getting there. Coke is my vice right now. I need to kick that habit.)
10. Do my hair and make up more often then not (Check!)
11. Take a cooking class in something that I am uncomfortable with (pastry?) (Hopefully in the summer)
12. Volunteer more with my sorority (Check!)
13. Work on being more "green" (I am doing real good with using my reusable bags.)
14. Get my breaks fixed on my bike and ride it more in the summer (Hurry up summer!!!)
15. Plan a fun vacation (Florida to run the Disney Princess Half Marathon in 2013!!)
16. Go to as many Tiger's games as possible (Opening Day will be here before you know it.)
17. Keep my car clean (I am doing pretty good on this one.)
18. Take more pictures (Yep! Thanks to iCloud and the Photo Stream.)
19. Spoil my friends and family as often as I can (I did for Christmas but funding is going to be low for a while.)
20. Grow my hair out. Only trims until at least July. (It is getting so long!!!)
21. Get a puppy! (This most likely won't happen. :( )
22. Keep playing soccer (Check!)
23. Dress more "professionally" less time in sweatpants (Check!)
24. Try cooking something new at least three times a month (Fail.)
25. Keep POSITIVE!! ( So far so good!)


So far so good on the goals in my opinion. In the spirt of blogging more I made a header and updated the look of my blog. I even added some buttons in the sidebar. I used this tutorial from Oikology 101 to make my button. Enjoy!
