tania:
i know we all hate list threads around here and blah blee bloo blah blah but honestly, i really love both making resolutions for the new year and looking back on old resolutions to see how successful i was, and i think a bunch of you really like doing that too whether you want to admit it or not so here's the resolutions thread, and here's last year's thread for reference.

my resolutions for 2010 were:

get into graduate school beginning september 2010 and, subsequently, finally move out of parent's house for good
i did this! i'm in a great criminology program in vancouver and i absolutely never shut the fuck up about living in vancouver. life's good.
learn to use my new camera
i did this too but i haven't had a lot of time for photography since moving. oh well!
go to the united states next summer
yeah i went to chicago with some jerks
stay in shape
got real good at running, started going to the gym, got freakish she-hulk muscles
quit smoking for good
i did this too!
be less of a hypocrite and start recognizing and being okay with when i am wrong about something
no i still suck at this
get over social phobia and be more assertive and confident when dealing with people
this too
finish knitting all unfinished projects
oh my god with my schedule you got to be kidding
start drawing again
nope
learn to parallel park
i have no fucking clue how to do this
floss more often
absolutely not. man this list started out so well and then kind of took a turn for the worst all of a sudden! i guess 50% or so ain't too bad.

and resolutions for 2011:

get my GPA up to a 4.0 again
get a secure volunteer position in the city
save up enough money to move out of this apartment and into a newer, bigger, better apartment
save up enough money to also take another trip to america, hopefully san francisco
get my full driver's license
be nice to everyone, all the time, because no matter how easy it may be to pass judgment on someone there will eventually come a time when you will really appreciate them and be truly glad they are your friend
floss more often
run a half marathon
don't take up smoking again
start building a decent collection of "adult" clothes, aka anything but yet more fucking t-shirts
see the city and enjoy life more

now i want to hear yours! go go resolutions thread. let's go

Coward:
Ooh - resolutions for a brand new decade. Let's be tragically optimistic and say by 2020 I will have:

A couple of little-me's scampering round the place. Maybe bolt onto that a patchy, ill-advised marriage of some sort.
A house with a fully paid off mortgage. Not a luxury mason, just a decent house somewhere pleasant.
A job that, whilst interesting, doesn't involve trapsing round the shit-holes of the world.
All my limbs still attached along with full use of my body and its senses.
Still look alright naked as, after all, I will be past my prime by the time I'm 34.
Get get my black belt one these sunny days.
Get into photography.

And, one that I always say but never do - learn to play the guitar.

With a bit of hard work and a bit of luck, none of that is asking too much, is it?

scarred:
i think my only real 2010 resolution was to not blackout while drinking anymore, which i failed like 6 or 7 times

i think for 2011 my list is (so far):

- get a job
- get back in school
- get in shape
- drink responsibly
- be less of an emotionless husk of a human being

Scrambled Egg Machine:
Get back into fighting shape
Finish Junior year at Texas State with good grades.
Move into an apartment
Find gainful employment
Work on my social issues.

If I accomplish these things, I will feel quite satisfied.

It turns out I didn't make any resolutions last year and I think that will be my resolutions this year
