5 Goals For 2020

It's that time again! As we wrap up another semester and wrap up another year this is when people get burnt out or motivated to change! I want to change for the better through what I've gone through this semester, both good and bad. But I am going to go into the next year being optimistic and ready for change and improvement.

1. Write my book.

If you have known me for a long time, you have known I love to write. Writing stories is more of my style than writing blogs and news-like articles, so I want to write a book. I've talked about it but I have never gotten around to doing it. But after some long self-reflection, I need to write my book. Overall, I want to accomplish something and/or create something.

2. Get strong.

I have never been much of a fitness and sports-oriented person until recently. Although I do not go as often as I should, I really do enjoy working out. But what I want to see is results. I know there is a lot of work in having a body transformation but I think it is attainable. I know it will take a lot of work but I really want to know how people work out to get toned and muscle definition.

3. Make a YouTube channel.

This is my most personal goal, you always hear about people making YouTube channels to get money or become famous. But that doesn't mean anything to me. I want to have it to look back on all the memories and see my growth.

4. Lose weight.

There's not really a set number and this is all for health reasons. You are beautiful at any size. My weight has fluctuated a lot the past two years and I have noticed when I am thinner, I sleep better, I'm happier, and most importantly, I have more energy.

5. Be positive.

This I think everyone can work on. Too often we focus on what is going wrong in our lives but not what is going great. We do not give ourselves enough credit. You are doing great!

Those are five goals I have for myself going into 2020!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
