I hope that everyone had a wonderful new year! I know I sure did, but more about that later.
My blog has only been around for a short time, and I continue to learn from fellow book bloggers. This year, one of my resolutions is to improve my blog, and of course I need your help. I plan to host some contests and interview a few authors, but what else do you guys think I should do to improve my blog?
So now for my other resolutions:
1. Work out. I joined a gym in April because I wanted to tone up and because I am just plain LAZY! I have always been naturally thin, but that does not mean I'm healthy. So this year, I am going to get my heart rate moving and my blood pumping!
2. Read more. When I was younger, I could read a book a day. Now, it takes me much longer (probably because I have a job and other adult things to take care of). I hope to read 2 books a week in 2009, beginning with The Hunger Games and GoldenGirl this week!
3. Learn to cook. I am a lousy cook! Enough said.
4. Plan the perfect wedding! That's right, my exciting news is that my boyfriend of 4 years proposed to me on New Years Eve! We haven't set a date yet, but I am sure I will be spending most, if not all, of 2009 perfecting our wedding plans.
Again, I hope everyone had a happy new year!!!

Oh my gosh!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!! How exciting!!!
When I was younger I would read like that too and now I need to spend more time away from the tv to read!
Congrats on the engagement! :D
Alea: Thanks! I've been so excited that I haven't even returned to Borders since Wednesday afternoon.
And you're right, the TV and computer are totally interfering with my reading time!
Khy: Thanks a bunch!
LOL! That's when you know something is the most exciting thing ever! it can keep you away from books!
Congratulations! That's wonderful!!!
I just started reading your blog; I'm new on the blogging scene too! Hopefully we'll both get better!

Congratulations on the engagement!! That's so exciting. :)
BTW, just saw your picture under your About Me. You're gorgeous!
Omg CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement, no wonder you want to learn to cook. ;) (j/k)
And same here about reading a book a day, I used to be able to do that but now a days freakin school takes up all my time. Arghh. Oh and not to mention the computer. As a matter of fact gotta start my essay!
Hope you had a great New Years!

AHHH Congrats!! that's so exciting.
I think your blog is great. I'm never good at giving out advice. I mean, I've been around for like...a year and a half now but other blogs do soooo much better then mine. lol

Alea: I know, right? I haven't read in a couple of days. Hopefully I can sit down and read The Hunger Games for a while today.
Ellie: Thanks! Even though your blog is new, I really enjoy what you've done so far.
Chelsea: Thanks so much for both comments! But what are you talking about? I've seen your pic, you're gorgeous!
May: Good luck with your essay. And you're right, that's part of the reason I need to learn to cook. I can only make a few dishes, other than that I just order takeout.
Lauren: Thanks so much! And I really enjoy your blog. There's always something cool that no one else is doing. Your blog is very original.
I've heard such great things about that book, I'll be very interested to hear what you think as well!
Shalonda: Welcome! And aw, i'm glad you think so! I'm never sure, but it's fun for me, so hey! lol
I've heard great things about The Hunger Games as well. Must read that.
