New Year's Resolutions anyone?

So, I know it's a little late for this, but I believe New Year's Revelations or any goals/dreams are never too late to accomplish. So I'm attempting to write out AND accomplish these things either this year or before I die. So, here I go: =]

- Pray more.
- Read the Bible more.
- Spend more time with Dakota. Even though him and I are inseparable, I want to do more fun things with him while I can.
- Read more.
- Live in a bookstore for a day. Well not LIVE in one per se, but spend a day in one and buy as many books as I can and actually READ all of them.
- Listen to different kinds of music; music that I've never heard of before.
- Paint a really pretty, artsy, professional looking painting.
- Write more poetry; it makes me feel better about any day I am having whether it be good or bad.
- Talk to family/friends that I haven't been talking to or have lost touch with and talk to them on a regular basis.
- Bungee jump, sky dive, get on an airplane, do outrageous things; I've always wanted to do all of that; I'm a risk-taker ;D
- Go to Carowinds and get on the Vortex. I always chicken out on that one, but either this summer or a weekend I'm not doing anything while at Winthrop, I'm totally going to get my girls and GET ON that roller coaster whether someone has to drag me on it or not.
- Not to be afraid to show my true self. I've worked on that a lot through high school with a lot of help from a very important lady, and I have reached a point where I'm not afraid to do things I used to anymore, but I feel like I could be better at it.
- Trust the people I'm REALLY close with more. I have some trust issues when it comes to certain things and I believe it all started when my dad left. I have broken down that wall, but it's still standing up to my knees, and I'm ready to break down the wall completely this year.
- Take more photographs. My camera goes EVERYWHERE with me, but I want to take outrageous looking pictures.
- Have a paint fight.
- Have a water balloon fight.
- Come up with a nickname for Miss Katie K.
- Earn enough money and buy a professional camera
- Have a place I can paint. Like a room or something that I can call my own. Maybe when I move out and get my own house.
- Own 50+ necklaces/beads
- Hold a snake. I really don't like snakes, but I want to actually hold one.
- Follow my heart first, then my head.
- Change someone's life.
- Buy one of those professional looking cameras.
