It's the weekend!

So many people make a resolution, but few keep it to the rest of the year other than January. I've been following a motivational speaker's videos, Chalene Johnson, has anyone heard of her? She's from Socal and has her own line of exercise videos, and also does motivational speaking. For January, her videos are about creating to-do lists and actually keeping to them, to follow your goals. I was actually able to do the first thing on my list, "get organized." Now I want to start another task for February. It takes at least 30 days or so to create a habit. I've gotten a bit more organized since starting the challenge, as she calls it, and I'm proud of that. Now I want to tackle something else in my life that needs help with. Two important goals I have are meditate once a day, and exercise once a day. I want to lose 25 pounds this year, and ten by June, since I'm going to be a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding! So if anyone wants me to help them keep to their New Year's Resolution all year round, don't hesitate to leave a comment! I'll share with you some of the tricks I learned about keeping a to-do list.

I realized I didn't give a full introduction of myself when I started this blog! Okay, here goes. I'm a 25yo, and I've been struggling with independence. I was sheltered as a child, and I live on an island off the coast of California, which doesn't help my situation, lol. I've shared apartments with roommates since college, but by situation, had to move back home. I mean, it does have its perks, but I hate the whole checking in with the 'rents whenever I leave for 24 hours at a time. I've been Wiccan since I was in high school, so just about ten years. Omg! Has it been that long?? My dream is to have my own apartment, so I can put my altar in plain view and put a pentagram on the door, and a broom right next to it. I will be able to have full rituals in the living room, instead of keeping small ones inside my bedroom. I have a younger sister, and a small dog, whom I love to death!! She definitely makes the living at home situation bearable. One of my goals this year is to have two writing internships, to create a writing portfolio, since I was an English major in college. Right now I'm blogging part-time, which is a good learning experience. Finding the right internship is definitely tricky. It's difficult to find a paying one that doesn't have you doing more work than you should be doing in an internship, since many companies try to overwork their interns for less than $8 an hour. Anywho, I wish everyone a great weekend,

Blessed Be!
