Almost a month into 2013 and I have decided to make a
resolution! I’m actually excited about it because I miss doing this. My
resolution is to go out alone once a month to enjoy my own company. And I don't mean running errands or getting my nails done. During my
final year of college I found myself feeling alone. Almost abandoned. Everyone
I considered close to me had graduated and gone back home. I could either feel
lonely until I found some cool people or I could make my own fun. I learned
that there isn’t much fun to be had alone but I did find that I enjoyed the
company of myself. When the stresses of school seemed unbearable I would find a
good book and go to a coffee shop or restaurant and enjoy the peace.
After coming back home I stopped going out alone. I didn’t
even realize that until I noticed that I was feeling alone in a crowded room of
people I know. I love going out but it all becomes so routine. Going out alone
allows me to zone out and think about things I wouldn’t if I was distracted by
the conversations of others. I’m excited to find new places on my own time. I
will make sure to pass on any spots that I find special as I discover them. With that being said let me know if you all have recommendations!
