New Year's Resolutions:
*Get ready for a mission. Study Preach my Gospel Daily, and really dig through the Book of Mormon, because that's what sets us apart from everyone else.
*Get in shape. Also has to do with the mission, but kind of for personal reasons. Kayaking and swimming should help, but work on flexibility too. Stop being the wimpy kid in the corner.
*Work on something musical. Practice piano, go out and sing in a choir, do something musical, and love it.
*READ! Finish a book of your choice every week...unless they're long books and then you get two weeks.
*Write part II. You're psyched about it, so go out and write it, and make it as awesome as you think it will be.
*Become more caring. Ask about things people are into, and ACTUALLY CARE about what they have to say.
*Baptisms for the dead monthly before the mission. This means talking to bishop and getting a recommend, and then planning ahead. But it'll be so worth it.
*Study. Foreign concept, I know, but really, you're grades can use all the help they can get. So, you know, shoot for A's, don't just aim for B's. Be above average.
*Get to know the Quorum. Actually help President Tate in your calling, instead of being a hindrance.
*Go to class. Don't skip unless you have a really legit reason.
*GO TO INSTITUTE!
*Eat somewhat healthier. I mean you are in college, so you can't ax out packaged food, but seriously, eat something healthy every once in a while. When you use your meal plan eat produce. Eat lots of produce.
*Pray more deeply and seriously. Know who you are talking to and really make that a meaningful conversation. You are not talking at your Heavenly Father, He wants to talk to you too. LISTEN!
*Slow down, enjoy life, and be happy where you are.
Always remember Richard G. Scott: "You become what you want to be, by consistently being what you want to become."
Also Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
I will make these priorities in my life, and I will love my second semester at school. And make it worth while.
