RING IN THE NEW YEAR!

Let us all ring in the new year. Okay, I think my New Year’s Resolution will include:

1. Lose the weight

2. Gain the weight

3. Lose the weight

4. Gain the weight

Wait, I think I see a pattern here that most Americans repeat every year! But, seriously I think I will keep the weight off this year. In addition to those New Year’s Resolutions, I will add correct my wrongs and break some bad habits. I want to make this year as a preparatory for the years that lie ahead of me. I have been blessed to know that there will be a lot that will happen in my favor if everything goes well.

I recently just had a New Year’s Eve dance with the Single Adults. I thought it was awesome, but felt weird at the same time because that was the first time I had done something with the church since I was a youth. It was nice being home for a change where I have realized many important aspects of my life that I didn’t pay heed towards. I am blessed to have the gifts that I was given this year.

Many of the Christmas gifts that were given were going away gifts chosen by me. They include:

Brand new pants

An AC adapter for my Ipod

And, a Timex watch – Ironman Triathlon – the same brand which was same model that had been damaged previously.

A Toaster Oven by Toastmaster

A George Foreman Grill

My own tool set by iWork – this is by far my favorite present

And a 3 in one printer by HP which cost only 19 dollars

It was nice of my parents to think of these gifts. Personally, I thought of just receiving the money but my mom insisted that she wanted to buy me something. So, without further hesitation I allowed her to buy me gifts.

As for the job situation, I have started to apply for some temporary jobs. Why temporary jobs? Well, I just need the funds needed for the next endeavor which is enlisting. That’s right I did say enlist! I am thinking of enlisting in the Air Force, because of the rigorous training and they have many of the amenities that I am looking for. Furthermore, they also have the places that I want to travel or stay. However, if I don’t get into the Air Force I am deciding to keep the Navy as a backup. I just hope that everything works out so that I can leave for BMT, basic military training, by this June.

There are so many questions that I need answering in my life, and so much yet to discover that I feel that this will be the route that I need to take in order to discover more of who I am. I feel this will be the right thing to do!

I hope everyone has a great new year as well! What are your resolutions or plans this new year? I hope that it is a good one!
