I'm feeling like I should write the story of my old love...
And sell it.
HAHAHA!

Stay Right?
Inasmuch as I dislike New Year's Resolutions because why should we wait til a new year arrives to make changes and decisions to make our lives better... (As taught to me by a person I used to know)
Despite all that...
I have made some decisions coming from the holidays of just being lazy and careless.
Here they are:
1. Go back to being vegan.
- I've reached by 1 whole year of veganism sometime June 2015, however decided to become vegetarian after that because its easier and I dislike imposing my diet on people who feed me since I've been traveling a lot. However, despite knowing that vegetarianism is the easier choice, my body was happier when I was vegan. So, I know it will be a struggle saying goodbye to cheese, I need to do it to say goodbye to bloating and to horrible pimply skin.
2. Say no to refined crap.
- I actually need to get my mom's buy in on this just so I could also impose it on my sister. I will only buy brown/red/purple rice, whole wheat bread, brown sugar (if necessary), and basically just focusing on wholesome foods.
3. Minimize eating out.
- I'm thinking that eating out is where all the temptation's at. I need to really just prepare my meals. Minimizing eating out means also saying no to fastfood and deep fried crap.
4. Exercise at least 3x a week.
- I'm not getting any younger and in this society, we're not exactly taught that cardio and working out is essential in daily life. I need to make an effort in being more active since my work is so sedentary.
5. Control my temper.
- This includes being less judgmental when my friends come to be for advice about being on a downward spiral. Controlling my temper also means praying right before facing a person who need has made some terrible decisions in life.
6. Consult God more.
- I need to constantly pray for other peoples' problems instead of harboring the emotional baggage on my own.
7. Focus on myself less.
- Minimizing my self-centeredness just thinking about other peoples' needs more.
8. Be a good daughter.
- The people who you love the most are usually the ones you hurt the most as well. I would like to focus on being a good daughter to both my parents despite our growing differences as I become my own person. I need to live up what God tells us as honoring our parents.
9. Be a good sister.
- I've been the youngest for so long which leaves me having no idea about being an older sister to someone. I know I'm oftentimes harsh on my little sister. I need to be more compassionate, caring and guiding towards her.
10. Aim to please no one.
- Aim to please no one else but God. I need to stop overthinking about how other people will see me but just act in a way that's pleasing to God. I need to focus less on being conscious about my appearance and just be more a woman of grace.
