New Year's Resolution

New Year's Resolutions seem to be really popular. Growing up my friends were giving up chocolate, soda, procrastinating on homework. I never made resolutions. I knew that I would not keep them and that there wasn't really anything that I wanted to give up or do better or more on.

Now I am graduating college with no clue what I am going to do for the rest of my life and not liking most of my options so far. What I do know is that I am going to make a resolution this year. I am going to make a resolution and I am going to keep it. My resolution is to do what I want.

Doing what I want it a very broad resolution and there is a reason for that. The reason is that I want to do a lot of things. I want to do more crafts and learn how to sew. I want to learn more about design and the design software. I want to cook more. I want to paint more. I want to travel more. I want to meet more people. I want to get a job I like. I want to start my own business. I want to follow through with all of my crazy fun ideas. I want to live my life in reality and not just in my head.

For years I have planned to do all of those things and not done them because I had multiple part time jobs and a full time school schedule. Well this year I am graduating and I am using these next few months to do all the things that I possible can that I want. Hopefully I will keep up with all of this on here to improve my writing skills that I also want to work on.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.- Mark Twain
