20 Things I'm Looking Forward to in 2020

I've never been one for New Years' Resolutions, but I do love a good bucket list. I guess this is a mix of the two. Anyway, the new year is certainly going to bring countless new things into my life. I'm just excited to face them all.

1. Traveling to new places.

If all goes as planned, I'll go to four new countries this summer.

2. Discovering new music.

The last two years have brought me to country music. Who knows what's next?

3. Making new friends.

There's always room for more people to love.

4. Getting an internship.

Hopefully...

5. Starting classes for my major.

Sociology and Women's Studies here I come!

6. Making new memories with old friends.

Always need more stories to tell when looking back at the good ol' days.

7. Moving out of the dorms.

I love being on campus, but I'm excited to be in a house with all my friends next year.

8. Moving forward from the past.

Time heals all wounds.

9. Volunteering more.

I'm excited to get more involved on campus and in my community.

10. Applying for a grad school program.

The future is coming fast, but I'm excited to see where it starts to take me.

11. Applying for journalism school.

I'm so ready to stop having to say I'm an intended major and just being able to say I am a PR major.

12. Reading books that'll change my life.

Next on my list? Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston.

13. Practicing photography.

Haven't picked up my camera since June, and it's time to change that.

14. Learning how to cook.

Not being on meal plan is making this a necessity, but maybe I'll be good at it?

15. Getting another tattoo.

Sorry, Mom. I think I'm addicted.

16. Developing a new sense of style.

I started dressing different towards the end of 2019, and I'm ready to keep going with it.

17. Starting to exercise.

I've discovered exercising is actually pretty fun and relaxing. I should probably do it more often.

18. Cleaning my room.

My room is an absolute disaster, and I'm ready to be able to see the floor again.

19. Learning more about myself.

I keep discovering new things I like and hate and want and am afraid of. I'm looking forward to getting to know myself this year.

20. Getting closer to being the person I want to be.

It's a never-ending process, but 2020 will surely bring me a thousand steps closer.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.
