@rambo and @missy picked a great one for last week!

I actually have a few things I'd like to accomplish in the next year.

Related to SG, I'd like to shoot more (I've had one lined up for a while for June with a few more possibilities later) and hopefully do a better set than my first one. I don't determine this in the amount of likes or comments it gets, but rather with how satisfied I am with the set after it's edited and submitted, and what is actually said in the comments. I'd like to grow as a hopeful and further my chances of going pink.

I would also like to attend more SG/hopeful events; the only event I've attended thus far was the Indiana SG party last October. I didn't stay long because I had to get up early the next day to prepare for my shoot, and I also didn't really socialize with anyone but Bindi because I was so shy and intimidated. I'd like to change that as well.

In my personal life, I'd like to work my way up at my job (or leave and move up somewhere else.) I have a promotion lined up that will most likely be happening in the next few weeks, but ideally I'll keep climbing quickly and furthering my skills and experience. I'd also like to narrow down my long term career goals. I would also like to pay off some of my debts, and (fingers crossed here!) start a family (since I'm getting married in 9 days.) This one will probably be the hardest since I have various health issues and hereditary issues against me.

In May of 2016, the homework will be to look back on this blog and reflect on things we did or did not accomplish, and how we feel about that. I don't have any doubt that I can accomplish all (or most) of these if I put my mind to it.

To my future self: I hope you're happy. I hope you're worrying less, even if your stress load is more. I hope you're continuing to better yourself in every aspect of your life, or at least trying to. I hope you've had a wonderful year of marriage, and that you can't wait to have decades more. I hope you're just as in love now as you were when you first realized it. I hope you haven't lost any more good friends, but instead gained some. I hope you're doing well. I hope you don't hurt, and that the future looks just as bright then as it does now.
