An excerpt from my new year 2004 entry:
“I’m not making the traditional new years resolutions. No one ever lives up to them. These are my for 2004:

- stop letting myself be held back
- follow my dreams
- love myself
- get help if necessary
- volunteer for Call Rape
- get involved with life
- learn to make the right decisions
- get healthy
- get out of here
- stop procrastinating
- sever ties where necessary
- forgive those who have wronged me
- lighten up
- allow myself to be happy
- give blood more often
- start writing again

They have nothing to do with losing weight, stopping smoking etc…”

I met most of those goals except:
- volunteer for Call Rape (I didn’t have time that had to be devoted to this cause.)
- get healthy (Still a work in progress)
- get out of here (Also still a work in progress, however, I am happy here now.)

2005 is going to be even better. It’s exciting to have a brand new year full of wonderful possibilities and opportunities.

Some of my goals for the new year (NOT resolutions.)
Get my own apartment.
Continue losing weight.
Sell my old car.
Meet the OGs.
Become even more comfortable in my own skin.
Start moving up the ladder at Cingular.
Find a new love (I need to stay away from the exes lol)
Have lots of .
And continue being happy.

On this day..
