Alrighty, so I need to write something for December so this is my post for it. I'm coming up with New Years Resolutions again and hope to follow through with them way better than last time. Let's talk about those actually.
The link to that blog is HERE so go read it if you want. I definitely did not write in my blog enough, I stayed focus in school and managed to finished second semester with pretty decent grades, I made my portfolio for the semester but it still needs more meat to it, I like to think my attitude towards my parents have gotten better (sometimes, I still get angry and what not but I forgive a lot quicker ... haha), saving up money lasted for awhile but I've definitely spent a lot more, I uploaded 49 photos onto deviantART for 2010, I definitely made my life more eventful with the summer of constantly going out to Victoria Park and hanging out with my friends then this winter going ice skating for the first time in almost 6 years, and of course, being myself has been good.
I made a lot of new friends throughout the year and learned a lot more and have been improving in school. It's just been a good year.
Alright, now for the NEW resolutions!
Number 1: Write in my blog more often. Yeah, this one is a repeat because it really does need to happen more often. I don't write in here much because I don't have anything personal that needs to be said. I want this to be a "Inside Allison's Thought" kind of deal, not just everyday. (If you want more everyday stuff, find me on tumblr HERE)
Number 2: Graduate. Yes, this is a short term thing but I am in my second year now and I graduate in April. I hope to graduate with my glass because I am still missing 60 hours of co-op (with or related to photography). This is the only thing that is stopping me from finishing/graduating.
Number 3: Buy less, save more. This has to do with money in general. Since the holidays, I've spent way too much money. I spend way too much money in general (especially online). I need to watch what I spend and how I'm spending. Buy only things that are essential and important, no more luxury items (maybe once in a while...like once every couple months).
Number 4: Work on portfolio. Yeah, I have stuff for my portfolio but I want to work on more personal work and really get my "style" going in my portfolio. I want something that is more me and something that I actually like and not just assignments.
Number 5: Photograph more often. I don't go out enough to just photograph things for fun. I always feel like I have to have a reason to go out. Even though I'll look weird walking around with a camera and tripod, at least I'll be getting photos I like and build my portfolio.
Number 6: Read more. I have a giant stack of unread books on my shelf and they need to be read. I really do enjoy a good book but I just get lazy to be honest. I have a book sitting next to my bed now and I haven't picked it up in a long time. I should finish it.
Number 7: Know more about the world. This really means watching the news more, reading the paper, stuff like that. As a 20 year old, I don't know a lot about the world and I wish to know more.
Number 8: Finish 'Got A Stache?'. This is a project I am doing for myself. Taking pictures of 100 different men and their facial hair. I'm at 37 men so...this should be good!
Number 9: Have an eventful year. Yes, another repeat because I think stuff like this is important. I want to travel/roadtrip with my friends, go out more to different places, try new things, have fun!
Number 10: Be myself. This is also important in my book (and self explanatory).
Well I hope everyone else has an amazing New Year in 2011. I hope it brings everyone laughter, joy, and love.
Thanks.
-Allison
