In the new year

I have been doing some thinking over the past couple of days about the new year.  I can’t believe it is already upon us.  I thought I would compile a list of what I hope to accomplish this year.

• Figure out my major: Yeah, I am a college sophomore and need to declare my major this spring.  I have taken a fair number of Business courses, and am interested in running things and how businesses work. I might also be interested in Communication Studies.  I work at the college newspaper and have a blast with that.  I love talking with people, too.  Lastly, I have always been really interested in technology and considered Computer Science.  I think, however, it is probably a little too math-oriented for me.  I need to get this figured out.  I do not like not having a plan (for anything), so this is stressing me out.  I know it will work out, though.  The professors care about their students at the college I attend, and it makes a real difference.
• More frequent, focused blogging: I have had this blog (off and on) since 2006.  It has never gained a strong following, and for good reason.  It has been kind of like a diary.  I want to start another blog where I write on a focused topic that others will (hopefully) be interested in, and try to grow that site.
• Cleaning: I have some boxes of paper, as well as a closet at home that need cleaning.  Despite being at college a lot of the year, I hope to make progress on better organizing those this year.

I am thankful for all of the wonderful people in my life, and for the opportunities I have had.  Although life is full of positive and negative events, I really have a lot to be thankful for, and a lot to look forward to this next year.

Happy New Year!
