2012 in Review: goals and accomplishments

In the year 2012, I accomplished the following:

• Read in the Book of Mormon every day
• Read 25 (plus!) varying types of books
• Played three dream, very well-produced and well-received shows: The Importance of Being Earnest, The Marvelous Wonderettes, and Little Women the Musical
• Grew my existing relationships and relationship skills, and added to my circle of friends
• Attended the temple about 10 of the 12 months, including Salt Lake, Oquirrh Mountain, Jordan River, and Bountiful temples, and visited the grounds at the St. George temple :)
• Lost 25 pounds and am maintaining so far within 5 pounds :-D
• Visited St. George, Philadelphia, Bear Lake, Idaho Falls, and Disneyland
• Caught up on these friend-recommended television shows: Community, Sports Night, The West Wing, Dr. Who, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Gilmore Girls. Gave up on Portlandia and My So-Called Life -- not my taste right now. Started Battleship Galactica and Enterprise, but putting them on hold for now. Next up: Lie to Me
• Bought a smart phone -- getting closer to catching up to the twenty-first century!
• Was relatively successful in my Photo-a-day endeavor
• Wanted to blog 3 times a week (Monday/Tuesday, Wednesday/Thursday, Friday): didn't quite work out. Maybe next year?
• Continued working full-time and earned a well-deserved raise :)
• Experimented with new dating skills
• Prepared and taught 8 Relief Society lessons 
• Used the words "woot", "insane", "ridiculous", and "brilliant" a lot (and a lot of exclamation points)

I'm pretty satisfied with this year, and hope for good things this next. I also hope that I'll have few regrets, and that I'll see positive results to my hard work in dating, theater, and work.

Thanks 2012. You were swell! Looking forward to whatever surprises are in store in 2013!
