Since today is my very first completely free day in New York City (wow.) I think it’s a good idea to check in on my progress with resolutions for 2008.
1. Posture: Judging by this post I made at Fashionista on Friday, yes, I’m paying more attention to it, but it hasn’t gotten much better.
2. Investing in more quality wardrobe pieces: A big ‘nope’ on this one… apparently I forgot that a New York City budget barely allows for the H&M trend section. Hmph.
3. Take better care of wardrobe: Doing okay on this one. Need to get a new steamer though.
4. No more nail biting (or get fake ones): Mission accomplished!! I just removed my silk wrapped fake nails (mostly because they cost too much to maintain), and to my surprise I now have medium length, healthy looking real nails!! That i will not bite! Habit broken?
5. Make Money. Save Money.: Still trying.
6. For every Coke, drink 1 water: I have both a coke and a water in front of me now. In general, I’ve been drinking less of both though… and replaced coke with apple juice.
7. Cook: I’ve made successful breakfasts, but I want to start picking one slightly complicated recipe per week. I also need more cooking utensils… but I still don’t have a microwave or can opener, so that kind of forces me to cook at least a little bit!!
How are you doing on yours?

PS- I’ve also added updating my blog more, if you couldn’t tell ;)

Hi! I just wanted to say THANKYOU for doing all these blog updates! Every time I see a new post I haven’t seen before, I get a little excited. =] As a fashion design student in Texas, I love hearing about what life’s like in the big apple since it’s my dream to make it there. Thanks so much!
Love, Laura
i need to follow your amazing new “new year” footsteps.
Your list is very similar to the one I have in my head (except the nail bitting and coke drinking). I just started bikram yoga, and if you can find time(I do it twice a week at 6 in the morning :\), it’ll really help your posture and you won’t even have to pay attention to it!
you’re doing so well!
most people keep none of their resolutions…
love you jai
You’re doing great! Stick with it, knowing you, you’ll have most of your resolutions accompished without even knowing it! I’ll be able to help you with some (can opener, steamer, microwave, cooling utensils, cooking) when I get there :) Love ya!
thanks guys :)
