My 2012 vision board: Say bye-bye to boring!
Too often, we downplay our accomplishments because we think they’re too small. Or, we’ve had a set-back that makes our gains seem tiny, or that even seems to void them out. When I really think about all of the things I did this year, it sounds pretty cool. Let me continue to get my quantum leap on. So, here is my 2012 Give Me My Coin Highlights and Accomplishments post.
- Drove 1500 miles alone on a one-way road trip.
- Moved from Oklahoma City to D.C. Metro, bringing nothing but what fit in my car.
- Landed a nice lil’ gig with some nice perks.
- Found out I was getting published in a mainstream consumer magazine!
- Got an apartment in an awesome location for super cheap when I didn’t think I’d be able to find anything. (Seriously, after looking at an English Basement apartment in Capitol Hill that was more suited for Polly Pocket, I bawled my eyes out on the phone to my mom.)
- Met my homegirl-in-my-head Shira from SugarFreeTV.
- Celebrated my birthday in NYC. (Thanks, Ms.SNIT Chronicles! ACE Uptown!)
- Visited several states I hadn’t visited before.
- Made new friends and reconnected with old ones.
- Having my mom and sister come visit me. First time my mom had been to D.C.
- Took my mom to NYC! Freaking highlight of the YEAR. She was a beast by the end of the day. Don’t be fooled: that woman knows what she’s doing.
- Learned the bus system. I was so nervous to take the bus. Sounds silly, but it’s true.
- Improved my parallel parking skills.
- Most importantly, I fed my spirit.
