LinkedInDay 30 : Hopes, dreams and plans for the next 365 days
Previously: Day 29 : This year, in great detail
The year has gone by so quickly – I could never have imagined even half of the things that happened this year. Drawing from experience, I can only infer that I will have absolutely no idea what events may transpire over the next 365 days.
However, that is not to say that I don’t have any hopes for the upcoming year. I’m going to be moving down to my new apartment in June, on the first day of Senior Week. I’m fairly nervous because I have never lived in my own place before, and I feel like I will be lonely and unable to take care of myself. However, I’m hoping that I’ll be able to have fun even when I’m by myself and be able to better myself while I’m doing it. Maybe this means cooking a fancy dinner once a week for practice, or making myself follow a work out regimen so I don’t get fat.
Another hope of mine is that I can find a good hobby to do in the evenings or weekends. I still do miss singing, perhaps an opportunity will come up where I can begin singing again. A choir? Another A Cappella group? Or who knows, maybe I could even be in a band! Dream big, they say, right? Maybe I’ll pick up an interesting sport, like rock climbing, or biking.
I’ve been thinking about getting better speakers. I love the Creatives that I own now, but they’re about 7 years old and the remote is starting to die on them. I want to get a home audio receiver and probably stereo speakers. It’s going to take a lot of research (and money), but hopefully I will have the ability to gather both of those in the near future. Luckily, I received a $100 GC to an electronics store, so I’ll be able to take advantage of that. Even with that, I’m guessing I’ll spend about 400 total.
Of course, work is going to be a big aspect of my life. I think my biggest goal for the next year is to absorb and to learn as much as I can about the working world. After 16 years in the school environment, I will be finally putting whatever skills I’ve learned to the test, and I certainly hope that they are up to par. I’m also aiming to be more up front when I have a question, rather than spending excessive amounts of time to complete confusing tasks.
Finally, I want to be truer to myself (cliché, of course. This should be true for everyone) but also to my friends. There have been a ton of new people in my life this past year, and I want to make sure that I can keep being friends with them, and continue to make even more friends.
Well we’ve finally come to the last day of this long journey. Thirty posts in Thirty days – I wasn’t sure that I could do it. Even though I was unable to totally follow all the rules, I at least made sure that I had a post for each “sleep cycle” that I had. Thanks everyone so much for reading my blog – I hope you’ve learned something interesting about me, or that I caused you to think of something in your own life.
Thanks for reading Byronasaurus!
