Monthly Goals - October


Wowza, hello October! The months just keep flying by and it's pretty crazy that the year is almost over! So with a new month, comes new goals!
  1. Manage my time better: I've been doing pretty good with managing my time but this week I got a little behind and am paying for it. I guess I'll just have to pull through and learn from this! Plus, mid-terms do make things a little harder in the time management field. 
  2. Save more money: I'm doing better with saving money now since I don't really have any. But now that I have a job, I'll be able to manage it better and put some in the bank for later. 
  3. Keep posting: I'm going to add posting on this blog to my "To Do" list that I make every week for school. That way I'll remember and be able to have something ready!

-------
Last months goals:
  1. Keep up with this blog: Bleh, yes and no. I was on a roll there for a while but fell off after a couple of weeks. I guess it's all part of the "getting adjusted period".
  2. Keep up with homework/reading: I have been doing this and that's why this blog has been lacking! I never knew I could read 4 textbooks, plus 3 other books for school at once. It's a lot of information being thrown at me but I'm somehow keeping it all together.
  3. Going to the gym: Something else that has kinda fell off the charts. But I did take an 8 mile walk Sunday in the Florida heat so I think I'm making up for it.
  4. Actually join a club: I've done this too! Kind of. Like I said, adjusting to college and managing my time is going to take a while but I've decided to dedicate myself to Adventure Club and see where it goes! I have a lot of clubs I'm interested in, I just need to actually go to the meetings. 
  5. Get a job: I DID IT! I got a job! This has probably been the most exciting thing to happen to me since I've moved because I'll actually have money now. So, I'm proud to announce that I am now a hostess at a local Greek restaurant! Let the gyros roll in!
  6. Go adventuring: As I said, I joined Adventure Club and our first outing was pretty fun! I got sun burnt and covered in mud so it wasn't a total bust! More adventures to come and you'll be the first to know. :)
Very quick post, but regular content will be coming soon! I am going to make it my mission of the month! So keep in touch and help me keep this going!

    I'm definitely with you on managing time better. I have so much stuff to do, but I realized that I'm very unorganized with planning time frames. That's something I should work on this month too!

2015 Goals

Image
So, I am very late to the party when it comes to posting my goals for 2015. Better late than never!  Blog more . Last year I kind of fell off the blogosphere when I started school and I am going to try my hardest to not let that happen this semester. I've put too much hard work into this thing to just let it go.    Make more videos.  Video production is something I really love and want to continue doing for a long time. Right now, my only way to practicing my editing skills is through my YouTube Channel  and it's definitely something I am going to keep up with this year. Join a club at school. Even though my schedule is super packed, joining a club at school is very important to me and is something I need to do for myself. All throughout high school I was in clubs and they meant a lot to me. So, this is part of my old self that I want to bring into the new year. Do charity work. This may seem a little basic but charity work is something I strive to include in the rest

currently #4

The last time I did a "currently" post was three days I moved to college. And here I am now, in my second semester of college. It's crazy how fast time moves.  listening: "Kanye" by The Chainsmokers. This is actually my first time listening to this song and I don't know how to feel about it.  eating: nothing. Too stuffed from the "delicious" dining hall food. drinking: water, water, coffee.... wearing: warm clothes because even inside this library it's cold. feeling: tired. It's been a crazy few days. weather: Cold, windy, and not fun. wanting: to have some fun. The endless homework has begun.  needing: to sleep.  thinking: that thank goodness every day is a new one and I can make it better than the one before. enjoying: getting things done. It's nice to feel productive.  reading: about Cleopatra. I have to write as her so might as well get to know as much about her as possible.  writing: this post but also want to be wr

Monthly Goals - March

Image
A new month is here! I know I didn't update last month on my goals, but the truth is that I really didn't have any goals that I was focused on. I mainly just wanted to get through the month without adding anything else onto my plate!  So, with that said, here are my goals for the month of March! Stay organized: I've been pretty good at staying organized this semester and want to keep this going! Focus on me:  I tend to focus more on fixing other people and not myself. This is more of a long term goal for better myself and not just limited to this month. Putting yourself first is so important and is something that I really need to focus on. Decide where I am moving?!: This year I lived in the dorms because it was required and frankly just more convenient for my freshman self but Sophomore year is upon us and it is no longer required to live in the dorms. I'm thinking about becoming an RA but the thought of living off campus is highly appealing as well. I gue
