Mid December was the typical end of the semester rush. Apart from work it was filled with holiday parties for work. It is nice being downtown now because I am by my co-worker friends Tiffany and Carrie now. A few weeks ago we went to Heartland Brewery with our other co-workers Paul, Jen, and Brian. After dinner we went to Dragonfly Karaoke. It was one of the most non-threatening karaoke lounges I have ever been too. We had a ton of fun.
Esther and I celebrated the end of 2009 by going to see Nine with our friend Linda. We went to the Ziegfeld Theater which was a first for me. It is an old live performance theater that was converted into a one screen movie theater. After the film we went to Fiorello's for dinner.
Before leaving for the break I briefly met up with my college friend Matt who was visiting from Boston.
The past week and a half I have been in Cleveland. A head and chest cold unfortunately has made up most of this holiday season for me but I still have had time to get together with old friends. My high school friend LeeAnn and I took a mini road trip to Detroit so that she could hang out with her college friend Erin and so I could hang out with my college friend Julie.
Sarah and I had dinner with our friend Chris and had a breakfast with our friends Kevin, Ashley, and LeeAnn. I have not seen Ashley in years and she was one of my best friends in high school so it was great to get together with her. Kevin is someone else I have not seen in a million years and it was fun to reconnect with him too.
It is a New Year and I am preparing to head back to NYC and get back to the grind of things. I have made my resolutions below and am sure I will update my progresses on this blog through 2010. Have a happy, healthy, and joyous New Year.

Resolutions
-Go to the gym more often (actually switching gyms and will post more about that this month)
-Post more frequently on my blog
-Take better care of my self both physically and taking time to de-stress
-Only putting energy into friendships where the other person is putting energy in it too. I would rather have a small tight knit group of friends who are steadfast then worry about sustaining friendships where I am the only one initiating contact
-Making to do lists and sticking to them
-Try to live more simply
-Put more effort into into walking out the door confident and with a smile on my face
-Worry less about trying to please others and concentrate more on being pleased with myself
