Hi there! Its been a minute since I have done a blog homework but I want to get back into doing them more. (maybe that is a resolution in itself haha)
I don't really love the idea of "resolutions" because I feel like it implies I have something about myself that I need to resolve. I don't like thinking about myself as something that needs to be fixed. That sounds like failure and disappointment waiting to happen.
Instead, I would rather set goals of things that I would like to accomplish in the new year. Here are 5 things I hope to accomplish in 2020:
1. MOVE
I have been trying to get out of Upstate New York for far too long, and I think this is the year I really need to try to make it happen. I would love to move to LA, but through touring with the Blackheart Burlesque this year, I have found a bunch of other warm and cheaper places I could try to move to! I have to make it happen. I have to.
2. TRAVEL MORE INTERNATIONALLY
I have been to a lot of the United States at this point, but as far as the rest of the world, I would love to see more. I have only been to 4 countries (US, Canada, France, Spain) and I have so many more places I would love to travel. My goal is to see at least 4 more countries in 2020. I have a few international shootfests that I am hoping to attend this year, and I am crossing my fingers for other travel opportunities as well.
3. See the rest of the US
While I am making travel goals, I would love to finish up my domestic travel as well. I am only 6 states away from visiting every state in the country. All I need is Utah, Arkansas, Mississippi, North Dakota, Alaska, and Hawaii. Some of these I can't imagine a reason for going to, but I am so close, I have to find a way.
4. Shoot more
I dont have a way to quantify this, I just felt like this year was very busy and I wasn't very much in control of my mental health. I want to find a way to allow myself to be busy and not always feel the best, while still making shooting a priority for me. Its one of my favorite things to do in the world and always makes me feel like I am doing something positive, so I need to make sure I get it done.
5. Always have something in the SuicideGirls queue
This seems redundant, but its really important to me to make SuicideGirls a priority as well. For everything that SG has done for me in my life, nothing makes me happier than giving back. I have been pretty good with shooting SG sets, just because its so fun, but there were a few times this year when I didn't have anything to submit. I want to make sure this year that I have qualllitttyyy sets going up regularly. Never shall I have an empty queue. <3 I would love to shoot more multi sets because they are my favorite! (Like this one of @circa and I like come onnnn) I also really do want to give you more blogs and be more active and really be a huge part of the SuicideGirls experience for you online in addition to on the road. <3 (speaking of SG sets by the way, I have one in the queue right now that's the cutest thing in the world. Youre going to love it. 2 months! ahh.)
Love you all. Thanks for reading! Let me know what your 2020 goals are! Thanks for the homework assignment @rambo @missy <3
