In 2013 I intend to...
work out more, commit 100% to mostly raw, gluten free Veganism, spend more quality time with family, eradicate negative thinking, surf this summer, de-clutter, finish my MRP, graduate with my masters in teaching, travel more (california), spend more time in nature, work on my photography and drawing, practice random acts of kindness, practice Reiki with my kids at school, drink more water, get at least 30 minutes of unprotected sun every day, do something every day that scares me (lame but i wish...), be better about answering emails, do more yoga, pray more, do more things that bring me joy, take lots of risks, go see more musicals, say "no" more, cut down on screen time, use my reusable bags all the time, have at least one green juice daily, buy a used prius, volunteer, teach my kids to follow their hearts, hang out with people who make me laugh, do whatever I can possibly do to end animal abuse in factory farming, start blogging more, run a marathon, be completely honest with my feelings, go see a medium, give away more, live with less, get a job I love and that pays the bills,organize and print my pictures, make sure all my files are backed up properly, meditate regularly and love more...
What do you plan on doing?

Pictures of the Bahama's will be up soon!
Back from the land of sun and sea and sand! wonderful way to bring in 2012! Happy Junkanoo to those of you who know what that is! (pictures will follow)
On another topic entirely, I've recently been getting very serious about signing up to become a certified yoga instructor... I've been looking at Evolve, my studio in Southern maryland but I am really open to suggestions. Does anyone have any programs they would like to promote or recommend?

2011 was a fantastic year!
Alright, I am officially the worst blogger on the planet, but I thought I would write up some thoughts to accompany the end of the year!
This year has been wonderful for me, and I am really truly grateful to the people who made it that way. I kicked the year off by flying to England and spending a semester in Oxford, where I traveled, learned a lot about poetry and gardening, and ate lots of scones with clotted cream. I spent St. Patty's day in Ireland with close friends, and ran my first half marathon in Scotland. Eventually my academic year abroad came to a close and I came home to work briefly at a local greenhouse, and then spent the summer working on an organic farm, which was quite an experience! Craig and I celebrated our two year anniversary at the seaside with shopping, tanning, pizza, and sangria. Then back to the grind with this past fall semester, and I joined a varsity cross country team. Running and studying took up most of my time and I also held a job as an RA, so I was very occupied, but managed to still keep my grades up- thank god! I ran my second half marathon in the fall, and also became very involved with yoga at a local studio. I had the most glorious 21st birthday which involved a couples massage, sushi, christmas lights, and a wine tasting with my lovely boyfriend. And then the holiday season brought along lots of guests and activities as well as a much needed break from school! I celebrated with both sides of the family, and managed to smuggle the boy up to NJ to hang out with me for a bit. Now I am all set to cruise off to the Bahama's tomorrow, traveling again to bring in the new year! Really I couldn't have asked for a more blessed year. Time seems to have passed very quickly, and I'm hoping this coming semester flies by as well, as I am feeling more ready than ever to be finished with my undergraduate degree- I just want to cross it off my list so I can move on (i'm so nervous something will go terribly wrong at the last minute and I won't be able to graduate for some reason)!! Anyway for now Im just going to concentrate on laying on the beach and attempting to knit some socks with the organic wool I got for Christmas!
Hopes for 2012:
- Finish my Undergraduate Degree!!
- Successfully begin my masters program
- Become a certified Yoga instructor (ahh this is such a big hope of mine, but it's so intimidating!)
- Run a full marathon
- Go sailing at least once
- Eat healthfully
What are your 2012 resolutions? How did you get through your last semester of your senior year of college?
HAPPY NEW YEAR LOVES!!
