The Resurrection of Hessed. Haha!
Hello, hello! Upon writing the title of this blog post, I find myself giggling.
I didn’t really die, but I am breathing in new life to myself and to this little corner of the internet. I said I would post more but failed miserably in 2018 and 2019. However, I want to cut myself some slack because I want to be kind to myself. I found myself in a rut and had to give widdle-ol-meee some much needed break.
Sometimes, when there’s too much stressor in one’s life, one must be able to remove the cause of stress in order to bounce back into productivity. That’s what I had to do last year.
This year is my year and I can feel it. I am gonna get my shit together and actually follow through on my goals. And in order to do this, I must hold myself accountable to these goals:
Shed some weight - Since gaining 30 sumthin’ pounds, I haven’t been able to fit in my old clothes. I refuse to buy new clothing because I don’t want to spend any money on fast fashion. It’s not good for the environment and it’s not good for my bank account! Also, losing the extra weight will be good for my health in the long run.
Get out of debt - I know I’m not in some crazy debt but a debt is still a debt. I want to pay it all off before the year ends. Sounds feasible now that I’m working two jobs!
Get my driver’s license - This is pretty embarrassing but I let my license expire in 2016 and haven’t renewed it ever since. Haha. I’m getting it done this month and I will drive myself to and from work like a big girl. I know public transit is better for the environment but I work two jobs! I need to get to places pronto…everyday!
Enroll into nursing school - Some of my personal friends and coworkers know this fact: I was a registered nurse back in the Philippines! I would love to jump back into this profession but if I want to challenge the nursing exam, I will need to do a bridging nursing program. I want to do it this year. I will do it this year!
The last goal is a bit more private in nature. I will keep this in my personal journal to ensure that my beautiful star gets all the prioritization she deserves in my life. <3
On that note, I am summing this new year’s blog post in order to get some shut eye, which is actually my forever unreachable goal- sleep hygiene!
Anyway…
Good night world!
