Sigh

I'm in desperate need of a change. Maybe because it's almost 2009 or maybe now that I'm settled in my life - I have an apartment, I have a full time job, I have awesome friends . . .i don't know, I feel the need to shake things up. Last time I felt this way, I went into a downward spiral of drunken parties and random nights out where I really didn't know where I was going, but I was just tagging along with the wrong crowd. I OBVIOUSLY do not want to do that, so what are my options:

1) Change my wardrobe - Well, I'm sort of doing this already. I'm trying to update my look in order to look more "grown up." While I know that I will appreciate this when I'm 40 or 50, but for right now, it's not cool that people still think that I'm in college or that I'm a grad student. It also doesn't help that the juniors and seniors in the program that I'm working for are dressed more adult than me.

I've also started running and going back to yoga, so I've been losing inches and my current clothes are either too baggy or falling off of me. However, due to budget restraints, this is a slow process.


2) Shake up my make-up - I've been playing with my make up routine . . but that only adds more time, and yes more $$$ that i don't have.

3) "Nest" at my apartment - it appears that I will be in the same apartment for the next 2 or 3 years, so I've started to nest a bit. I've added pictures, rearranged my closet. Now I just to organize a bit more, buy a couple more pieces of furniture, maybe get a couple accent pieces . .again, this requires money that I do not have!

4) MOVE - But I like my apartment since it has a Washer/Dryer in unit. I do my laundry at the most random times, plus it gets me into cleaning mode, so it's nice to have the washer and dryer in unit so that I can do my laundry and go about my cleaning, and then add another load. Plus, the rent at other places are more expensive. I would love a walk in closet, more storage space . . . sigh


I don't know what to do . . .
