As I get ready to ring in another year, I can’t help but look back and think about all of the incredible blessings that have come my way throughout 2016.
I can finally say that I feel completely settled in NYC.
~I have an incredible support system through my group of friends. (Who honestly feel more like family.)
~I finally re-did my apartment, and have it just how I’ve wanted it!
~I’m completely confident in navigating the NYC subway system, and have been able to give thorough directions to new comers, and tourists when they’re trying to find there way.
~I’ve found a home in a church that I love.
Aside from New York, I have also felt incredibly happy to have reconnected with friends from years ago. Finding love again. Finding new ways to stay creative. Being able to constantly reinvent myself. And keeping an open heart for new possibilities, and new opportunities to make new friends, try new things, and continue to find myself.
A few New Year’s Resolutions for 2017:
1. Stick to my workout routine: {yoga classes, cycling, start running again}
2. Read one to two books every month in the following categories – (Literature, Biographies, History, NY Times Bestsellers, Psychology, Current Events)
3. Meditate daily – practice positive thinking and mindfulness
4. Travel more… High on my list – {Seattle, Nashville, Charleston, anywhere in Europe}
5. Attend a music festival – on my list: ACL, Coachella, Lollapalooza, Governors Ball
6. Do something I haven’t done before that I’ve always wanted to do: go camping with friends upstate, attend a trapeze class!, take a trip by myself to a city I’ve never seen)
7. Volunteer at a local shelter
8. Eat healthier – cook at home, have more fruits and veggies, drink more water
9. Spend more time outdoors in one of the many beautiful parks NYC has to offer
10. Practice Self-love: get enough sleep, seek therapy when needed, listen to soothing music, take longer baths, speak daily affirmations to myself
