2014 Goals

Today, I am linking up with Second Grade Nest to share my...

Here they are...

...and more!

My school's financial situation hasn't been doing too well this school year. I was almost consolidated this year. So I definitely need to update my portfolio and resume so that I can be ready if necessary. Plus, it's always good to just do an update every year so that I don't have to scramble if I ever need it. :)

Continue working on getting to understand the Common Core Standards better so that I can better serve and teach my students. 

I really want to do some more stuff for me. Like read for fun, exercise, cook, travel, and more...

I've been before, but I would love to go to Hawaii again. Of course, I've only been to the island of Oahu so I would love to get a chance to see the other islands too!

I want to learn more about how to handle and invest my finances. My dad has been really helpful in this aspect by telling me to open all these different investment account. Of course, I should also learn what I need to do so I don't just depend on him. 

I want to spend more time with family and friends. It's part of the "balance" I'm trying to find. Trying to find balance between work life and personal life. Also trying to find balance between alone time and social time. Plus, the boyfriend and I are long-distance (around a 1 hour drive) so have to also integrate that into my balance too. 

I hope this isn't too horrible to say. I actually really love my school and have met some wonderful people, one who has become a really close friend. However, I would also really love to work closer to the family and boyfriend. Two years of long-distance is starting to take its toll. So I want to find a job that's closer to home. If only I could just take my school and all the people in it and move it to a different city.  

Thanks for reading! Be sure to link up too! :)
