New Year’s Resolutions 2010

1. Study hard. Get decent GMAT scores. Get into a decent MBA program.

2. Volunteer at various nonprofits like it’s a full-time job.  Define which causes are most important to me. Decide if non-profit development is what I want to do with my MBA.

3. Learn more about Filipino history, culture, and current events. Learn to speak Tagalog.

4. Travel more. Long weekend trips:  Williamsburg/Richmond/VaBeach/ Washington, DC/New Orleans/Toronto/KeyWest/Miami

5. If I’m going to see all 7 continents before I’m 30, I need to hit at least one this year:  Africa, South America, Australia, or Antarctica. YES, Antarctica!

6. Wellness:  Get fit, eat better, look great in a bathing suit by summertime. The usual drill:  yoga, cardio kickboxing, maybe try swimming this year.

7.  Read more. In 2009, my boyfriend read 57 books.  I read one.

8. Pay attention to the news/current events. Not just domestically, but globally.

9. Blog more…. I need the practice if I really want to write articles about travel/lifestyles.

10.  Interview people with interesting careers/lifestyles/goals.  Treat them to lunch and talk about what makes them tick.  Once a month.  Maintain existing network.
