happy musical monday!

moulin rouge style:

today i am bundled up inside, eating oatmeal cookies,

and planning the new semester i start tomorrow.

i'm feeling nervous-but excited about the second half of the year

the last 5 months have been a whirlwind & some of the hardest months i've ever had

and now i'm contemplating if teaching is what i want to do for the long term.

my new's years resolution is to take better care of myself

and that is my priority for 2012:

-eat breakfast

-do yoga

-do more of the things that make me happy

*like watching 30 rock in bed with popcorn and hot coco*

-think about the future (note to self: get GRE books)

-enjoy friends more

-stop picking at my flaws so much

-cook more

*real simple chicken pot pie recipe in the crock-pot as i type*

-show more gratitude

so, even if i decide that teaching is not for me

i'll know i gave it a shot as the best possible version of myself

here's to a fresh start!
