I have a confession to make. For as long as I can remember I have had a girl crush on...........



I have no idea why. It's not like i ever really watched the show. I think i like what she represents. A strong, sexy, fearless woman. Maybe my New Year's resolution will be to be more like Wonder Woman.
Speaking of NY resolutions - i haven't really made any yet. I wasn't in the frame of mind to do it on 1.1.11 so i decided i'll spend a couple of weeks thinking about my goals for 2011 and make them on 11.1.11.
So far i have:
1) Travel overseas (UK or Spain) - this is totally going to happen, no matter what!
2) Invest my time and energy in people who care as much about me as i do about them - Some friendships die a natural death as people grow and change and move forward. While I'm sad about it i'm not bitter, because i've been lucky to have those people in my life. I will also make the effort to spend time with all the amazing people who i am lucky to call my friends.
3) Speak my mind - I've spent the best part of 30 years swallowing my opinions (believe it or not) but not this year. This year i will clearly state how i feel about things and let other people deal with how that affects them. That's not to say i'm going to go out of my way to upset people but i really believe all the anger, hurt and frustration that i keep inside will eventually make me physically ill so it's time to look after myself.
4) Exercise, eat better, blah blah blah - I'm not going to exercise to get skinny because frankly being skinny means bugger all to me BUT I have found walking regularly has a really positive impact on my frame of mind (I know, what a shock! The experts have only been saying that for like A HUNDRED YEARS). So more physical activity it is!
5) Blog more regularly - it's self indulgent and possibly no one will read it but i don't care! (please, please, please read my blog and tell me how great i am)
6) Learn something new - it might be painting, drawing, surfing, karate, Spanish or all of the above but i need to get my brain working!
Well....that's my list so far. What's on yours?
