Getting back to my roots

I'm getting back to my roots.
I spent the last week in Austin and that was just the dose of reality that I needed. I realized that the way I had been living my life was not promoting who I really am. I wasn't doing anything terrible, I was just having slightly too much fun and wasn't being real. I was not being my true self. I was playing a role. The person I have been is only a fraction of who I really am. Honestly, I'm done with being that way...for now. The occasional party will come along, however I need to be more focused and act my age again. And I have just realized how many times I have used the word "I". 16 times. Wow.
Happiness is key. And I'd like to believe that I have found happiness now. My 22nd birthday was interesting. Some parts were fun, and some, well, they just were not. But another year has come and gone. My how time flies. At this point in my life, I have decided to make a few goals. Goals have always been something of a challenge for me, but now I believe that I should actually follow through. So, here they are...
1. Get to Europe again... and soon.
2. Finish school, graduate, get that piece of paper in hand in the next year and a half.
3. Write more.
4. Read more interesting novels.
5. Stop giving away my heart too soon.
6. Be real and true. To myself and others. Always.
7.
