Are you Resolute?
lepetitfromage:
Thanks, you too! Maybe one day the higher-ups will get their heads out of their asses and realize how important it is to teach kids art!
Barmymoo:
I just did an english lesson with my Korean student about resolutions. We talked for ages about the relationship between the words resolution, resolute and resolve - he struggled a bit because not only did he not know those words, he also didn't know the synonyms I was giving him, but he understood in the end. Then we talked about how his 2011 had gone and what had been the most exciting, what had been bad etc. Apparently the most exciting thing for him was getting a limited edition Beyblade for Christmas (nine year olds are so predictable!). Then we tried to make a list of four resolutions, and ended up with two. One of them was to collect another 28 beyblades.
I kind of miss being that age, when I didn't have any big important things to make resolutions about.
Mister D Nomms:
But you liked smoking, didn't you?
lepetitfromage:
i liked it a lot.....i miss the act of smoking more than the nicotine though...but that's easy to deal with now that i've learned how to roll joints :-P

Luckily I get to tee off by cycling back from Stockport to Sheffield on New Years Day, although I haven't decided which way to go yet.
Not sure what to go with next, still a few days to add to the list though.

So I decided to kick this off by riding home from the gf's parents house today and hit the Snake Pass from Glossop to Ladybower and then into Sheffield via the Rivelin Valley. I now hurt quite a bit and careful observation tells me that I might have turned into a fat bastard. Guess what my next resolution is going to be?
If you need further clues, I am eating chocolate as I type this, which is indicative that all is not going well right now, particularly as the aforementioned gf has very recently told me to "stop eating all the chocolate you fat bastard".
