 Starting this blog off by posting my New Year's Resolutions:

• Try out new creative hobbies (like blogging, writing, creating dioramas for my Calico Critters)
• Exercise regularly (CrossFit, Yoga, running, etc.)
• Read 20 books
• Keep applying to full-time positions
• Save up enough to either pay off half of student loans or to buy a hearse
• Take a vacation (Cape Cod, Providence and New Orleans are my top choices)
• Learn to roller skate
