New Year Mostly Same Me
I’m tired of basics. This year we’re adding something funky to every outfit!
January 12th, 2025
Hellooooo 2025. New year, fresh start. The way time and calendars work in my head is linear rather than circular. This means that instead of thinking that December and January are right next to each in the continuum of time, December is at the end and in order to go to January you must go all the way back to the beginning. Hence why the new year feels like a fresh starting line.
There’s so much I want to accomplish this year. Honestly, just making it alive in one piece will be sufficient. I have 3 weddings, bachelorette parties, 2 moves, studying, running, and A NEW JOB. Extremely sad to be leaving Austin in a couple of months to move back to Seattle but couldn’t be more excited about this new chapter. 5th grade me would be over the moon happy with where I’m working now. That being said, it’s time to get serious about these CPA exams. They have been looming over my head for far too long.
There’s so much I want to cover and share. My notes app is full of title ideas for essays. I’m trying new things this time around. We’re getting funky (gradually). We’re picking up new hobbies that we’ll suck at during the beginning. We’re saving money. We’re challenging the system. We’re only wearing our hair straight now. I’ve tried to do many of my goals for this year in the past and it hasn’t worked out. So why not switch it up? It clearly hasn’t been working so what’s the point of trying the same path when I already know how it’s going to pan out.
For the love of vintage Manolo Blahnik’s can we shut down social media for at least 2 days a week? The one kink I can’t quite smooth out is how to get exposure without having social media. I cannot stand spending time on Instagram and I simply refuse to make a TikTok account. Any marketing strategists please email me.
Anyway, that’s it for today. Stay vigilant and classy, and remember to tell yourself you’re beautiful tonight.
Besitos!
