Hit the Refesh Button

My new year's resolution was to "Quit Complaining & DO Something About It." I would religiously vent out my frustrations to either my friends, family, (really anyone who wanted to hear about it lol) but most frequently to... my boyfriend. It felt good hearing his perspective about the situations that I would thoroughly describe for him. Most of the time I would cringe at his theories (because he likes to play devil's advocate... he really loves that role even though it drives me crazy) but I knew that I had to hear his perspective to rightfully play my move. Sometimes his suggestions would just take me overboard and I would say things like "why won't you just be on my side?!" Looking back, that's why I've chosen my new year's resolution. My boyfriend would say things like "it's easier to change yourself than (place name here)", and it's true.

Since new year's day, I've complained less, and lost weight in the process. I'm happier. I evaluate what I am negative about, & i do something about it instead of sulking around about it. Not happy about the excess fat around my belly? Eat healthier and try to get some workouts in during the day. Now that I have my boyfriend's dog with me, I wake up earlier, sleep later, and I'm more active than I used to be. Hah i've even rearranged my room due to these changes. I've been meaning to rearrange the room now for a while. Not to worry, I'll upload pictures soon :)

Feb. 1st was my 23rd birthday. I don't feel any different, but it's a way of looking at a new start. I'm well on my way & I have a good feeling about this year. May you all have a wonderful year and remember... If you're ever upset about something, don't complain.... do something about it!
