Who knew?

I had no idea growing up would be like this. I remember being 15 and thinking, in 10 years I will be 25 and I can’t wait. Someone should have told me it’d be here before I knew it. Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t have an issue with being 25…but where did 22, 23, and 24 go? And for that matter, where the hell did 2011 go? Just yesterday I was moving to Cleveland and starting a new job. Well I’ve been here over a year, moved apartments, made some new friends, lost some old ones, and learned more about myself then I ever imagined possible. I just wish time would chill so I can catch my breath and “stop to smell the roses.”

I’ve decided that 2012 is going to be the year of ME. =) Now if you know me, and I mean really know me….then I’m sure you’re asking how it’s going to be different from any other day of my life. I’ll be the first to tell you that I’m a high maintenance, spoiled, and sometimes selfish person. But you also know that I have a habit of putting other people, their feelings, and what people will think of me in front of what I really want. My goal for 2012 is to be able to stop and enjoy the things I want, still keep busy, and not miss out on any opportunities to create memories. Which leads me to my 2012 bucket list. As of Jan 1 we all have 355 days until the end of the world (haha). Better get moving on those New Year’s resolutions. Below you will see my bucket list. Normally I’d tell you not to judge, but the new Mindy wants you to. Judge away. Because this year, the only person I answer to is me.
