New Year's Resolutions (Update)

Going into month five of 2006, I thought it might be time to gauge how my new year's resolutions are working out:

1. CLEAN MYSELF UP: I've taken up yoga and been trying to go three to four time a week. I've gotten myself myself down to 160-165lbs (I was 165-170lbs in January). The ultimate goal is 150lbs. I tried going vegetarian for a few weeks in April, but ended up getting really sick. I'm an omnivore, plain and simple. As for the acne, i'm cleaning it up pretty well. I still have hormonal breakouts (it's part of being a girl), but otherwise my face is doing much better. I've also hired a fashion consultant to help me with my wardrobe (mainly for work), so i'm looking forward to be all over pretty!

2. GET A REAL JOB: Twelve hour days serving coffee and taking part in an internship are long gone. I've been working for a non-profit art gallery since January. It's nice working 9 to 5, but i'm not really happy with the job. I end up sitting around most days and i'm not making enough to move out yet. So I'm actively searching for something better. I have a few leads, but nothing has panned out yet. I'll keep everyone updated.

3. TRAVEL: I spent a week cruising around mexico. It was fun, but it was way too touristy for my tastes. I'm going to vegas next weekend to play poker and hopefully i'll be visiting the BMC in september. I don't know if i'll leave the country again this year, but i'm going to continue to try.

4. GOING SOLO: I've had a few lack-luster flings. I guess you would call them that. It was mainly flirting with boys who were either defective in some way or I got bored with or both. Mr. Right is nowhere in sight ... and strangley I haven't worried about it a lot.

5. ART ON A NEW LEVEL: My printing press and studio are now fully set up. I'm ready to make art. I'm hoping to get a nice portfolio together and start applying for art school in the fall. Wish me luck!
