Up to Speed

Why hello, blog. I'm glad to see you've survived this new period of neglect.

During the second half of the semester, I studied a lot. Also it got cold. I'm not going to try and describe all that happened, I'll just bring you up to speed on everything you need to know to keep up with updates from now on. Time for the seven aspects of life.

Mental: I loved my Accounting class and got an A in it. Hooray! Still planning on majoring in Accounting.

Social: I did do some social things in addition to studying. Just not many.

Financial: We'll see about that when final grades are posted.

Familial: Missed my family a ton while I was at school. Now that I'm back home for Christmas break, I'm super glad to be with them. They're the best.

Spiritual: Pretty great; just wish I had time to write all the things I want to.

Physical: Started working out, then stopped when finals came around and need to get back into the swing of that.

Romantical: Ah, the category I know we've all been waiting for.  Let's just summarize the boys in my life. Aladdin is still dating Padme, and I still think it's a bad idea but don't really care. Mr. Bingley is generally nice but keeps driving up the walls crazy. Rudolph got back from his mission and gave me a call, but no romance there to worry about - thank goodness! Haven't seen or heard from Edward Cullen in months and really don't mind at all. Saw Macbeth a couple times, but I think there are no more worries there, either. Beat Faramir on our math final, which I am thrilled about, and am not interested in anything with him. Everyone and their mom has a crush on Cedric Diggory. And Sirius Black is pretty amazing. I've dated Sirius Black quite a bit and I really like him. He seems to like me too, and I'm just thrilled. I won't gush too much about him on here, but he's just really wonderful.

Besides all that, I had a sucessful NaNoWriMo and finished the first book in the Edelweiss Pirates series. It needs tons of revision and stuff, but I got the word requirement down. I think it's actually not too bad of a book.

I've watched New Girl and some more Doctor Who; Ariel and I are planning on much more Doctor Who now that she's on break.

Season two of Sherlock is coming out in the UK soon and I'm dying with excitement and hoping I'll find a way to see it. Also the first trailer for the Hobbit came out. Basically all the Martin Freeman fangirls are dying.

I'm going to post more in the coming year. Goals for next year are:

Run 10 miles a week or more.
Blog twice a week or more.
Make a video once a month or more.
Read scriptures every day.
Have personal prayer three times a day.
Write a story, no matter how short or unoriginal, every month.

I'll keep track of the miles run and stories written on this blog, and it should be pretty obvious on this blog how often I'm blogging. Videos will be available here.

Let's hope I can do it!
