So its January 21st...

Thinking back to January first, I was sitting at my grandmas house and thought to myself, "You should really post your New Years Resolutions like right now or else its not going to happen." I know myself too well. I ended up falling asleep, and here we are today, January 21st, FINALLY writing about my year. So lets recap in photos first (they're completely out of order):

I'd say I had a pretty eventful year. This year I finally decided what I want to study and that is HUGE! I never thought I would be one of those people that would change their major five times, just because I thought that I could pick one and stick with it. When I first came to BYU a year and a half ago, I wanted to study Graphic Design. In fact, that played a big part in me transferring because I knew BYU had a good program. So I came, took all the classes, loved every second of them, then applied and didn't get in. It caught me off guard. I felt so strongly that I was going to get in because I thought that I was supposed to transfer to Provo and study Graphic Design. It made me step back and look at the whole situation. I realized that I loved the idea of graphic design and understanding how it works but I didn't really see myself having a career in it. Then I started thinking about what I wanted to do instead. Photography? Psychology? Human Development? Family Studies? Accounting? Marketing? and then it hit me. Recreation Management. So here I am now, in the Marriott School of Business studying Recreation Management (Event & Venue Management track) and I couldn't be happier. Its unbelievable how much weight was lifted off my shoulders when I realized what I wanted to do and it felt right. 

This year I want to:

1. Lose 10 pounds by March 23rd (my aunts wedding).
2. Prove to myself that I can get A's in hard classes.
3. Get a promotion at my current job or get a job at the Marriott.
4. Run at least a half marathon.
5. Become fluent in Spanish.
6. Work on starting my own small photography business.
7. Take a spontaneous trip to Hawaii.
8. Find a new passion.
9. Read a book and enjoy it.
10. Reach my savings goal.
