New Projects

I have decided as seeing so many others posting blogs about their lives, that I will also embark on this fun little project. My life has recently been a roller coaster of events and emotions that have lead me to work on myself, inside and out. This blog, I hope, will help me become the person I want to be.

I hope to accomplish the following goals this year:

  1. Graduate with my B.S. in Biology, Chemistry minor, Natural Science Concentration (I know, it seems like a LOT, but I love science and cannot wait to be a teacher!)
  2. Continue with my new found love of Yoga! Anyone who is a natural worrywart or just stressed out all the time, go out and join a class, or buy a video! It will help you feel much more at peace
  3. Join a young woman's Bible study, either at The Grove or Crossroads in Corona. I think through my ordeals the last year and a half, God has really been showing me that I need to lean on Him and Him alone. I am so excited to see what is in store for my life :)
  4. Hike Mt. Rubidoux with my mom and Kelley every weekend. Kelley and I went last weekend and we had a great time! It was so green and the weather was perfect! And it really wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be!
  5. Making as much time for my friends and school and work will allow. Keeping those friendships strong is a major component in having a "Happier" life.
  6. The final goal is what I have been continually working on and that is having a happier, more fulfilling life. I just finished the audio book, "Happier: Learn the Secrets to Daily Joy and Lasting Fulfillment" by Tal Ben-Shahar. This book can help anyone become happier and experience more happiness within their life.
I am not feeling very well today and woke up with a cold and need to go read for my Microbiology lab tonight. This is a quote I found today and hope you all enjoy it too!

"Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.”
