What do I want?

I've been thinking lately...I considered going back on Christian Mingle, but then decided not to. Most of what is next is jut one big confession.  I think that I'm not ready for it. I told my friend K that I don't know what I want. I know that I have a lot to give, but no one special to give it to. For now it is given to my friends and family, and I guess for now that is enough. I just feel lonely a lot lately. I was thinking today that I have all of the love, but I don't know if I am fully ready to give it to one guy. My mom and I have talked and I'm finding I am a lot more independent than I thought. I'm not ready to share my life with someone. It's just hard at this time of year with Valentine's Day right around the corner. I have plans with my friend H, but this is yet another year that I will be single on this "romantic" day. I even feel like I'm becoming a bitter woman on the inside, even though I have no reason to be bitter.

I am looking forward to the future. It is so bright and full and promising. I'm hoping that I'll be able to move to Tennessee like I feel drawn to. My hope is that this is where God is sending me and is part of his plan. I've considered leaving Michigan for somewhere new, but now I'm feeling the pull to Tennessee and a specific region of Tennessee. Luckily I still have over a year to figure that out, right now I'm just trying to figure out where I want to do my off campus placements for fall and spring semester.

Another thing I was thinking about today is every once in a while showcasing some of my favorite recipes that I have found and been making. There are so many and I'm not starting tonight, but I will start on my next post.

Another note to my readers, I really don't know if it is worth writing. So if you enjoy them and want me to write about something special leave me a comment.

New Years Resolutions

New year, New chances, New plans, New resolutions.

I survived Christmas and New Years with the family. We had fun with movies and drinking and  games. It was a good break. We also watched a lot of movies and I bought a lot of movies....busy busy busy. 

So school starts tomorrow at 9am....way tooo early for class. Luckily my classes are done by a little after 3 and I can get home to work on school stuff and working out. Confession 1: I gained all of my weight back over break.  I am starting a new diet and workout regime tomorrow, starting with yoga to wake up. 

New Years Resolutions:
  1. Be happy
  2. Enjoy life
  3. Have more fun
  4. Work out more
  5. Lose weight
  6. Continue to survive grad school.
  7. Run at least one 5k this summer. 
This year I have several 5K runs I want to do. The color run, the dirty girl mud run, and the warrior dash. So we will see how many I do run. 

I don't really have too much to write about so I'm just going to end for today with a question for my readers. 

What is one of your new years resolution?
