reflect & resolve.

I've never been big on making resolutions for the New Year. Somehow I just feel like I am setting myself up for failure...how am I ever supposed to keep something for a whole year!? My life changes so much in a year that I don't feel like anything will be the same and relevant 12 months after I decide on it. It's just the way it is. #collegeprobs

This fact that my life experiences so much change right now was even more true after I started reflecting on my past year. I made a TOP 10 MOMENTS of 2012 list, which was just as wonderful. Reflecting is good. More than anything this list made me realize that I am more blessed than I usually remember. The kind of opportunities and fun and new places I experienced last year and the amazing people that filled my life kind of make me speechless.

Anywho...(which is my new favorite word)...after my reflecting, I decided to make a list of my TOP 10 DREAMS of 2013 instead. Much better choice. Also, because I don't have to just pick one resolution, but can have 10 instead.
