My year in review 2011

Here we go, again! 


Last year, I made a 2011 resolutions. I want to look back if I followed what I had preached from last year. 

1.It was noted that I read about 25 books from last year. I don't even remember having a moment of reading frenzy but the average of 2 books a month sounds reasonable. I will try to top that with 3 books a month this year.


How did I do? I started reading 3 book in the first 3 months but it winter time so I spend most of my days indoors. I read even less this year, a mere total of 21 books. Let's top it off again next year.


2. Last year, I made a resolution to take on more exercising particularly outdoors. I did some hiking, swimming and running but most of them depending on weather. I cancelled my gym membership last year since I didn't really had time to go in between work and mommy duties. This year, the little one had a bike for Christmas maybe I can use that as our bonding time.


How did I do? Meh. The running thing didn't last long. I will try again next year.


3. And about eating...This is a tricky one but I made a resolution to include more fish, fruits and veggies in my diet. Anything else should take in moderation. Easier said than done but I am making an effort.


How did I do? I think I did better this year. Eating veggies are not as painful now as it was before. Putting Kimchi into my diet was the best thing I did so far.


4. Lately, I haven't been travelling as much as I wanted to. We hadn't been away for long except for the long drive to Myrtle Beach and the Boston rendezvous with my friends. I have plans to further explore the tri-state area and if time permits, another week or so in Florida and Las Vegas.


How did I do? There wasn't much local exploring happened. I went to Las Vegas (more of that soon) and Seoul, South Korea. I wish to travel more internationally but between work and Madison going to school full time, there wasn't any time to do it. Other than my yearly pilgrimage with my friends, we may end up south again in Myrtle Beach in the summer.


Here's to another great year. I wish great health and happiness for everyone. 
Thank you for reading Corner Turn.


Sincerely,
Mich

I believe in small steps in resolutions. My sister did one a few years ago that was brilliant, she committed to trying two new recipes each month.

She wanted to cook more but rather than be vague she set a manageable goal and then after the year she had 24 new dinner ideas in her recipe box.
