It's the New Year

As 2012 has finally arrived, the usual activities continued.  Lots of parties, lots of friends, lots of resolutions.  For 2012 I have created a list of 4 resolutions that I plan to work on and plan to accomplish in full.

1. Work out at least 3 days a week, possibly increasing as the year goes on and personal time allows.
2. Become more organized in planning, in my apartment, and being on top of homework.
3. Fish more frequently this year and make it a point to fish on a regular basis.
4. Be the best boyfriend I possibly can.

I believe this list will be something that is achievable but also easily expandable as time moves on.  While the things I have listed here are not necessarily as detailed as I plan to make them in the future, they are a great starting point.  Today I was also able to accomplish all four of these things (well somewhat). 

First I started the day with a nice workout session that also included a run.  Next I was able to spend the day with my wonderful girlfriend working on some homework and cleaning up the apartment a bit more which meets goals 2 and 4.  I was not able to get out and fish today, however I was able to make some flies for fly fishing in the coming months.  I decided I was going to make it a point to fly fish more often this year and in order to do so I need more flies.

Today was a great day to start the year and this trend should continue.  I do feel I should add a fifth goal to the year to include more blogging of these efforts, but I think this will come as I make it a point to track my daily and weekly efforts of the new resolutions.
