resomolutions for a brand new dovey
Lines:
2010: I resolve to do my best to stay alive during 2010 and go back to school. That's all.
I'm still alive and I'm back in school, so yay!
For 2011:
- Try to keep doing as well in school as I did my first quarter back.
- Finish my grad application.
- Don't get fired from my job.
- Continue supporting myself.
- Work out more this year than I did last year.
Barmymoo:
Here were last year's resolutions!
-spend more time doing degree-related reading and less time doing internet-related reading
-learn to skate backwards well enough that I can play defence
-get a job at easter that is not in a supermarket, and save up some money from it
-cook proper meals to prevent repeat of fainting incident
-FIX A BOAT (ALSO IN ENGLAND)(IT'S THE SAME BOAT)
Well, I dropped out of uni. So that one didn't go very well.
I didn't learn to skate backwards well enough to play defence because I left the team, but I can skate backwards.
At Easter I worked for the college on the telephone campaign and earned lots of moneys (which I then spent)
I can cook, and have only fainted twice since.
Did not fix boat.
This year's resolutions:
-be the best goddamn au pair in the whole world
-learn French/Norwegian/Both
-go to at least two folk festivals
-go back to university
-finish knitting the jumper I started in like 2007
Christophe:
Last year was like this:
1. Get a job, you hippie. (Oh hey, I did! Worked at a new bookstore in town for like three months and got laid off because they weren't making any money. Thank god my volunteer soundman gig at the bar is turning into an actual thing, though it probably wouldn't hurt to also find a day gig.)
2. Start an actual band, with actual people in it. (This happened! We are still going strong! I am telling people how to play my songs! We are playing shows!)
3. Graduate and get my degree. (Yerp derp.)
4. Record other people's music for a try. (Sadly never got to do this, due to a dearth of like-minded musicians in town.)
5. Attend the 2nd Annual PRFBBQ in Chicago, Summer 2010. (GREATEST FUCKING WEEKEND OF MY LIFE)
6. Continue to get in shape. (Welp. I think I've gained back the weight I lost last year and then some. My fat ass needs to get back on the bike more often.)
7. Be more sociable, in general. (This year I actually felt like I had a large group of friends to hang out with rather than girlfriend + two or three people.)
8. Figure out what I'm going to do after college. (Move to Chicago God Damnit)
Here's the new shit.
1. Move to Chicago
2. Find more gainful employment so I can save up to move there (or just save up Like A Boss)
3. Lose some fucking weight again, fatty
jhocking:
In last year's thread I resolved:
--- Quote from: jhocking on 01 Jan 2010, 04:56 ---I plan to finally get around to developing the iphone game I've been planning.
--- End quote ---
My current avatar came out of that effort. Unfortunately I kind of gave up on that project a couple months ago, but now I'm working on a new iphone game that I'm halfway finished with already. My plan is to release this new game in February, so I guess that's a resolution for 2011.
Also I really want to take another trip to London this summer, so I'll say that's my other resolution. Beyond that, I generally don't make resolutions; I have lots of future plans, but I change plans so often that I prefer to keep them to myself. live in the moment, go with the flow, etc etc
I suppose I could resolve to post less. Everybody breaks their New Year's resolutions right away, right?
Eris:
I thought I had all my resolutions from last year covered, but it seems I didn't:
1. Be Happy
I am basing this off the fact that I have mostly happy memories of the last year, rather than sad memories, so I say tick this one off
2. Learn at least one new skill
I think I did this. I learned how to do counted cross stitch? I feel like I have learned new skills, but can't actually think of anything.
3. Draw more, and maybe try improving
I drew for a while, and tried new things with that so I think I started improving. Stopped again, though.
4. Make more things (that will tie in with 2)
I made some socks! And embroidery! And some deformed prototype toys before giving up on that! Hopefully if we move into a bigger place next year I will have more room to try crafty things.
5. Keep going to the gym
Ha. Ha Ha Ha.
6. Cook more
I kind of was a bit hit and miss with this. I cooked more than I did last year, but still ate a lot of take away food. Again, move to a bigger place and hopefully I will cook more.
2011
1. Be Happy Again
2. Buy Nicer Things
3. Water The Plants and Don't Let Them Die
4. Save Money Regularly (I have already been doing this, so it is more a reminder to keep it up)
5. Get You Goddamn Tattoo Already.
