So many bloggers have put together great lists and I think the main theme of mine will reflect trying to stay young while entering a new chapter of life that requires you to step up my A-game and become more of an adult. Mine will be more 'lifestyle changes' and things I hope to remember to do. Let this list resemble the carrot dangling in front of a horse and let it be my own personal chocolate truffle guiding me into adulthood and looking at feet for a living.
- Continue to enjoy being single until Prince Adam sweeps you off your feet. [For those who are not Disney enthusiasts, Prince Adam is the Beast from and the Beast]. Wait for the Beast to be tamed before you make any haste decisions to say yes to a date or changing that FB status to in a relationship. {shudder}.
- Every time you judge someone, slap yourself. It's rude and people are probably now judging you for slapping yourself in public. Quit your own public humiliation and quit being judgmental - it is rude and this will make you a better person.
- Drink half your weight in water. [your weight/2 = #oz of water to drink a day]. Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor.
- If you don't have time or money to finance your own personal journey to another country, go buy a book and read about someones great adventure or go on Pinterest and make a board of places you wish to see and things to do for when you can afford to go.
- Make time to get schwastypantsed before you forget what alcohol tastes like. School is important, but so is your sanity.
- Also make time for Netflix or a great read. When life makes you want to hide under a rock in the fetal position, allow it to happen. Lock yourself in your room, cuddle in your bed with a bottle of vino, and let the story suck you in and forget life for a bit. Then, wake up from your vino-coma with inspiration to keep on keeping on.
- Even though you're already in Grad School, try to remember that life exists outside of the walls of education, including the sun-light. You still need your Vit. D.
- Respect your mom more. They may be slightly overbearing, but they love you to pieces and shoved you out of their whooha ages ago. #respect.
- Always strive for success. Stand up tall, look your tests in the eye, and aim for total domination.
- Remember that Today is a NEW DAY! You have 24 hours to either sit and do nothing or do something worth sharing with others. Your choice. I'll pick doing something blog-worthy.
