Woo Hoo! Friday!
I am so glad that I’m in a good mood most of the time because life would really suck to be bitter about everything.
There are several factors that make me extra happy today.
- It’s Friday!
- Work was hard and tiring all week this week and I got finished up and left work early instead of late.
- I’m listening to The Strokes.
- My 2nd Kyudo class is just days away.
- 8 days into my ‘diet’ and all is well. No off-roading. Woohoo! for new found will power.
- The cutest puppy was hanging out at my work all day today. (Yes! in one of the project managers’ cube. )
- It’s Friday…
I want a new theme for my blog. I want to redo a lot of things with my website. Maybe some reorganization this weekend. And some drawring as well. I’m hoping to reawaken Oni-bot. Poor forgotten sketch blog.
I’m going to start learning Tai Chi this weekend. I want to feel more relaxed and centered. It would help with my Kyudo. I’m real excited to start that. Wish me luck!
Little happies #001
When I’m feeling stressed out and not in control it often makes me feel better when I make lists. Lists of things that make me happy, lists of things I need to do, lists of random things. (You get me.)
Here is a list of five things that made me happy today (in no particular order):
- My sort of tidy cubicle. I forgot I tidied up last week. Yay for me.
- Talking upcoming Left 4 Dead 2 release in the kitchen at work and being called a nerd by coworkers. It makes me happy I don’t know why.
- Downloaded Weezer’s Buddy Holly on Rock Band 2.
- Lyndon made dinner for me. Hiyas’ recipe of Balsamic Braised Pork – Yum!
- Kitties waiting for me at the top of the stairs when I got home from a tiring day at work.
This begins the Little Happies list of things that make me happy today.
Goals for 2008
So it’s more than a week into the new year and I’m only now thinking of my goals and aspirations. Here are a few in no particular order:
-cook at least 2 meals per week
-write a letter to a friend
-paint the inside of my house
-consume less caffeine
-hang artwork on the walls of my house
-create artwork to hang on the walls of my house
-have a party
-read more books (not just comics)
-take more pictures
-adopt another cat
-think about having a baby (yikes!)
-learn php
-be more css savvy
-purchase a new mac
-take better care of myself
-be more organized
-take a class
-learn to sew
There’s so much more. I didn’t think the list would get that long. I’m not good at motivating myself to do anything. I think I might be able to accomplish some of these things. I’ll come back to this when I can remember.
Oh, one more which should probably be at the top of the list.
-learn to be happy with myself
It sounds more depressing than it is. I just think that sometimes I’m too hard or critical of my life and my self. Mostly physically. And even though I’ve dealt with getting older (not necessarily wiser) I somehow feel sad that I’m not the young care-free girl I used to be. I don’t know. It’s not meant to sound depressing but more positive and reassuring.
Happy New Year!
