A look into my journal...
Graduate College
- This should be easy (but also not easy because classes and writing. I get it. I cri)
- You BETTER maintain that GPA and graduate with some sort of honors!
- Also, take those graduation pictures (you've been waiting for this and literally planning your hair around this — so you better)
Go on that trip
- Listen, sometimes life involves doing things you're not completely sure about.
- There will, undoubtedly, be positives through any negative
- Plus, no matter what, you'll find that moment of stillness
- You love it there. That's all the reason you need.
Use Recyclable Bags
- You know you're going to the store.
Do More Art
- Invest your time in artistic pursuits.
- There's so much to learn and so many uncharted territories.
- Art is Art. There is no right or wrong.
Write More (for fun)
- You're taking creative writing and after you graduate you'll have a writing minor...
- I know (and now the metaphorical world knows) you have a full notes section of ideas
- They don't even have to be published. Just write & express yourself
- This also includes being better at journaling... like... do better at that pls
Keep Learning Spanish
- Second languages are important
- There's so many ways to learn and practice!
Spend More Time Reading
- Reading is a beautiful passion
- You have a list of books you want to read
- Even if they're audiobooks. Spend more time doing this.
Drink More Water
- No brainer
- It's good for you!
No Buy/Low Buy
- You just cleaned out your closet and makeup. You don't need to buy more.
- Buy clothes from thrift stores/2nd hand if you want "new" clothes (because Reuse is best)
- Buying 2nd hand often means supporting a smaller business instead of a corporation :)
- Fashion is one of the biggest contributors to pollution, not to mention many clothes are unethically made. Fast fashion is bad.
Apply for a New Job (or Internship)
- Even though you love your current job so much :(
- We have to spread our wings
Apply for a Job/Internship that seems Out of Reach
- Even if you don't get it
- Even if you have to say no
- We have to spread our wings
Spend One Hour Daily Phone-less (or more)
- Endless scrolling and games are not enriching.
- Trust me, this WILL add to your life
- Maybe use that hour to complete other goals
Stop Eating Candy/Junk
- Just because work provides it, does not mean you should take it.
- Let's face it, you never take just one piece.
Shave Your Head
- You've always wanted to try it
- Who are you without hair?
- Think of all the fun wig options!
Travel
- Preferably somewhere new and preferably alone.
- But there's nothing wrong with discovering something new in a place you've already been
- A new experience is a new experience.
Go See Art
- There are so many interpretations to this, but just go enjoy Art in the world.
- Be it dance, theatre, music, or museum (or literally anything else)
Take More Pictures and Videos
- They're one of the best ways to remember a moment
- You can never have to many (or can you? Try to prove it).
Save Money
- Just because you have money doesn't mean you should spend it.
Donate Money
- You thought about it in 2019. It's time to do it in 2020.
- Causes you care about need your support.
- Is there any better time than now?
Learn Something New Outside and After School
- Never stop learning!
- There's always more to learn.
- Take some sort of class after you've graduated, in-person or online.
These are my biggest goals for 2020, with all my raw commentary transferred nearly word-for-word from my journal (meaning many of the "mistakes" I've typed here are intentional). I hope this has inspired you to incorporate some of these goals into your life. What are your intentions for the new year?
