Ring in the new


It's a new year. I should be better, I'm blogging during church. :S don't judge me. So. I'm moved into my new place and love my roommates. Well the one that I met. She's a friend of Socorro's and we click really well. I went out to dinner last night with Danny, Chris, Sally, Jenna, Sadie and a couple other people I don't know. And it was fun. I didn't think about anything else, no other friends, no ex boyfriends, no nothing. I was comfortable with these people. In fact. Danny and Chris came over earlier in the day and helped me carry stuff up and take the closet doors off. Then after we went to eat, Chris was continually trying to convince me to come over to watch a movie at their place I. Wow. I felt wanted. I felt like I belonged for the first time in a long long time.

The memories of the past year. I remember how I decide that 2008 was the best year of my life. 2009 sucked. It started badly. It ended badly and in the middle was painful. I want to cut that entire year out of my life.

I have a new apartment that is amazing. I'm getting a new car next week. And I have a new group of friends. I didn't instantly click with them like I did with Chris and Ben and Kristen. And several other members of the squad. However these people don't judge. I used to think that of the squad. But everyone has some kind of grudge or takes stuff out on people or blames others for their problems. And it's fallen apart. Once upon a time Chris Xander and I planned and plotted activities. Most of the nightly activities were becase Chris called me up and said " I'm bored. Let's do something tonight". And my place was usually open. So we went there. I spent so much money and time picking people up and paying for food and gas money and thinks like that. And at the Time I didn't care. I had friendship. And that's all that mattered. But. Things change I guess.

New car
New place
New friends
New ideas
New year

Resolutions:
keep my room clean.
My sister helped me pit all my clothes away, and I have a washer and dryer in my apartment.

read my scriptures before going to work at least 30 minutes.
Yes. This means waking up an extra half hour early. But I think it will be worth it

Get to all my meetings.
I'm in a ward with friends this one shouldn't be too hard.

Do all my visiting teaching

Be actively social in my ward

Be happy

Go to the temple twice a month at least

Set up a game and destress night.

Fullfill my calling.

Do more service. And volunteer work
Either sign up for a senor center or do stuff at the hospital.

Worry about other people.
I meant this in the way that I will worry more about people than myself.

Bear my testimony every fast Sunday.
If I don't. Then I have to bear it to a random person that month and visiting teaching doesn't count.

Anyways. That's my list that I can remember. :D

Laugh smile and always be happy
