Last year was possibly the first year I made a New Year's Resolution and kept it. The resolution was simple - cut down on junk food.
For the first seven months of the year I didn't eat a single McDonalds, Burger King or KFC. For the last five months of the year, I changed my diet - swapping my eat out at lunch schedule for a more healthy bring in lunch option, which by the end of the year consisted of carrot batons, celery sticks, grapes, raisins, a banana and a cup a soup.
While sticking to that same diet, this year I'm doing something different. Something for me. Something to say "I've lived" before life gets too complicated. I've hinted at this before, and now I'm actually getting on to doing it.
As I said in that previous journal back in October, "I'm going to try and aim to do something I've never done before each and every month. I'm not sure if I'll succeed for the entire year, but if I do just 5 new things then perhaps a few of my life's wants will be answered."
And that begins now, with learning Salsa on a Thursday evening. I'm quite excited by the prospect of not having two left feet any more. Stay tuned to find out how it goes!
