So after sharing my highlights from 2008, I want to share some resolutions and goals for 2009. I'm hoping by publicly sharing them I will feel more accountable to make sure they happen. We'll see about that.
They're kinda all mish-moshed together, but here goes...
1.) I know it's super cliche' but living healthier is definitely on the list. I found a new gym that I LOVE, is very close to home and I'm actually excited to go. I have never been excited about going to the gym...and loathe the beautiful fit people that live there. Ok well, I secretly always wanted to be one of them. Soooo I'm giving it a enthusiastic go.
2.) Another characteristic that makes me want to snap people's heads off and shove it under my pillow... Morning people. I detest them and the self-righteous attitude they carry about it. Yet, again, I would give anything to be one of them. I am just naturally a night-owl. I have the most energy starting around 3pm and it carries me through until well past midnight. Why, it is 12:13am now. So after tons of research (and the discovery that it is 50% genetic so who knows?) I'm striving to change it using a variety of suggested techniques...and keeping my fingers crossed...
3.) Getting more involved in my community.
4.) Getting out more. My social life is a bore!
5.) Acquiring a new studio space in Dallas. This is a big one and will take even more effort than going to the gym on a regular basis. But I AM FOCUSED!
6.) Attending at least one photography workshop/seminar/conference to keep me inspired.
7.) Shoot things/people regularly that I want to, not because I'm getting paid to. Gotta keep the creativity alive!
8.) Birthing Urban Talent Photography. I will need the help of my friends in the labor room of this one...
9.) Enter at least 3 photography competitions this year. I've slacked off in this area for awhile and need to get back in the groove.
10.) Finish unpacking/organizing/painting/decorating my house.
So there. 2009 - here I come. I think I'm ready.
The only other thing I can think to add...I want to discover a new cheese to love. :)
I want to add "blogging more often about photography and random things" to my list! There was something else but i cant remember now...
