Happy 2011 - The Year of Challenges!

Hello! 

I feel like I've quite neglected this place, but it's a new year! Clean slate. 
I know it's only January 6, but so much has happened in the last few days that I feel like I'm on a roller coaster ride! I think 2011 is definitely going to be full of adventures. :)  And I am 100% ok with that. 

So I've got 3 main challenges going on that I wanted to share.

1. My Chick Lit Reading Challenge through Chick Lit Plus
Like I said in the previous post, 12 books in one year, and two have to be chick lit. I've already visited the library to pick out a couple of great starters so I'll be posting my reviews as soon as I finish reading them. :)

2. My Writing Challenge - "TriMoWriNo"
So this is a new project that a friend and I decided as a goal for ourselves to further our writing ambitions. It's our own version of the popular NaNoWriMo: TriMoWriNo. Instead of having one month to write 50,000 words or a novel, we're giving ourselves 3 months so from January 1 to March 31. 

If anyone else is interested in joining, please let me know!  The more the merrier! :)

I'm sad to say that I haven't started at all. :( I have this problem with indecisiveness as I have a bunch of ideas floating around my head, but I'm not sure which one I want to go with. I find plotting and thinking of ideas a lot easier than execution. 
Fingers crossed, I choose something soon!

3. 5K Challenge aka Get in Shape!
I have decided to try to train for a 5K marathon or at least get in shape by visiting my frenemy Mr. Treadmill. So I'm doing an 8 week Couch to 5K program. I'm already on Week 2, and I think it's going well? Hopefully, I'll be able to keep it up...I'm going on 5 days in a row when it only requires 3 days per week so go me! haha

So that's what's new with me...hope everyone is having a great 2011 so far!
