It's kind of hard to believe that we are sitting exactly 13 days away from 2010. Work has continued to put the stress on me, especially seeing that there isn't a whole lot of time left until Christmas, so of course, you have those idiots that are waiting until the last fucking minute to shop. We open at 6am tomorrow, so I think I'm just gonna take a nap behind the cash wrap for a few hours. The way things have been going with us opening early, that honestly feels like the most productive thing to do at this point. Why did I agree to open? Oh yeah, because I get out at 3:30 tomorrow, that's why. I still have so many things I feel like I need to get done, and I'm getting nowhere with them. I just need some time to myself to be able to get my own stuff done. I think if and when that happens, it would be great. Ohayocon can't come soon enough. A weekend to relax and splurge. I've been thinking long and hard about some of the things I should probably attempt to get done in 2010. I feel that some of my time management just hasn't been the best, and maybe by making this list and striving to get it done will help me. Resolutions for 2010! -Finish paying off my car! I have a full time job, and I'm making very good money. I owe 2100 on this thing, and I know with most of my tax refund, I can do this. I'm also expecting some sort of settlement from the car accident I was in back in July, so a chunk of that will help get a lot of that sorted out. -Pay off my credit card. Because I was not able to find a job for 6 months after getting out of school, I ended up having to resort to using that damn card to keep myself afloat. Of course I managed to smack close to a 5000 dollar balance on that one. Fortunately I've been able to keep up with all of my payments so far, and as long as I do that, I should be able to get a lot of that paid off in 2010 as well. -Continue paying off my college loans. I know I'm going to be in this boat for a few years at the very least, but as long as I throw any extra that I can afford onto it every month, I shouldn't have to worry too much about it. -Stop buying video games! Wait, what? I've learned that I have one of the worst habits in the world. I buy games, never find the time to play them, and then they sit. People ask me about a game I have. "Oh, I have it, but I've never played it." I need to finish the ones I have here first, and then I can buy new ones. But Bayonetta, Darksiders, and Final Fantasy XIII don't count. -Revamp my Ebay business. Things went downhill this year with the economy being in the shitter. My sales failed pretty badly, and I just kind of stopped updating the store, even though my bag of cards is near to bursting. Why not pull in some money on some cards I don't use? -Learn to let go. I'm seeing myself gaining some of the habits of my mother, that I really don't want to get. I tend to hang onto a lot of things without throwing them away. I need to start to minimize, which will allow me to maximize the tiny living space I am currently confined to, which actually brings me to my next potential goal. -If money goes well enough for me and enough of my things get paid off here in the next few months, I'd like to move out of my house. I want to get my own place, and be able to have my own space. I'm getting so stressed out by living at home, that I think moving out will be the thing to calm me down. -Become a store manager. I know that this is possible. I feel that I've been working very hard so far to slowly step in this direction. I replaced an assistant manager at a store, and I've been commented on how much of a hard worker I am. Even though I am feeling overwhelmed by the sheer amount of work I sometimes do, I'm thinking that eventually it will pay off for me. -I would insert another goal about how I need to lose weight, and then realize that I won't do it. Stephen and I have talked about going biking together when the weather gets nice, so I'm hoping that we'll be able to do it. If he can't always go with me, I might start doing it on my days off work. Go early in the morning or something along those lines. So there you have it. My list for 2010.I think most of this is doable. I really just need to manage my time well, and I can pull this off. Gotta be up at 4:30 am. That's gonna be fun.
