Happy New Year!

The year 2009 was an interesting year for me, full of ups and downs. Graduating Cal State Fullerton was probably one of the proudest moments of my life so far, but after graduating, the realities of this downturn economy has hit me, and I’m still jobless. Part of that is my fault; I know I can probably get a retail job, but I’m a little too prideful to get a retail job because I have a bachelor’s degree…but pride is suppose to be the fall of man, so I think I’m going to learn to swallow my pride for this year. (The notion that bachelor’s is the new high school diploma kinda makes me want to cry too)

But despite that, 2009 was a year of new friends and new experiences, always good things for me. And even though I’ve encountered some tough times this year, I know that I have been much more fortunate than a lot of people

I would list my New Year’s resolution, but I wonder if I’d even keep them? Regardless here they are:
- Score well on GMATs
- Get a decent job (at least for the first half of 2010)
- Get into JET (hence the “first half” part in my last resolution)
- Read more…I haven’t read much in 2009 at all!
- Save more money
- Be more positive
- Meet more people
- Reconnect with old friends
- Lose weight
- Cook better
- Write more in this blog (and the other blogs I’m suppose to be working on)

Should be simple enough…2010, lets go!
