With just over a week of the year left have you accomplished yours?
Mine was the same as every year befoe then: To finish my book. So far, I've come close, but...nothing.
In 2009 I am going to make a concious effort to change my life. I'm going to be more organised, my finances are going to be budgeted, I'm not going to waste time, I'm going to work my way through the many many books I own, I'm going to quit my job and take on something a little easier and without an asshole for a boss, I'm going to find the love of my life and...yes, finish my book.
Reckon I can do all that in three-hundred and sixty five days?

Melly Clishmess ,
tehja gan
* to lose all of the weight ive put back on :yuck:
* and get fit again.
oh, and get a better job/clear my debts which im in the process of trying to do. got an interview this morning :nervous:
You got an interview on Christmas Eve?!?
- Stop smoking (again)
- Be myself a bit more
- Give up wanking
Spot the red herringit was only a phone interview but yes, i did. don't think it really went well though
Possibly lose some chub.
Oh and to ask out the dream boat at work rather than just making eyes for well over a month now.
Think I'll add that to my list too.
Other than that resolutions can get fucked. Never keep to them anyway.
This time next year I may be in real danger of it happening though
to eat more low fat frozen ben and jerry's rather than the full fat ones
to not let any man or woman control my behaviour due to my level of infatuation
to either start smoking properly, or completly give up
to finish this year at uni with a reasonable grade
to not get really ill again
and
to better nurish my mind body and soul
to get all my health problems sorted (well i'm on the way to being sorted)
to do well at college and get myself into westminster (2 Disinctions and 1 Merit, and i'm doing well on my new course)
have to have a lovely flat in north west london by september (well i have a room in halls, but thats going to change in june!)
and what i failed miserabley on:
to find myself a lovely person to share some time with (and some good sex, cos i'm fed up of crap sex!) - well i found myself some great new friends, but had a hellish relationship, and now i'm just glad to have less complications in my life
to start doing 200 lengths a week again. and walking 5 miles a day... (getting there with the walking but had to give up on the swimming due to my exzema)
to get my band together
to organise another incredibly sucessful summer picnic meet -booo!!!!! I will get something happening this summer
to grow another 2 or 3 inches (really not going to happen but i can always wish) - it didn't, but i did loose quite a bit of weight (but i put on 2 stone over the year as well)
- Cut down fizzy drinks
- Manage my money better
- Make more of an effort with people
I'm a humanitarian.
But this year i think i am gonna make one and that is to give my girlfriend a proper birthday like she deserves because i fucked up this years.
--> Try and get out there abit more with my DJ'ing.
--> I'm trying atm to teach myself in producing music and thats something i really wanna focus on next year so i guess to just stick at it and see what stuff i can come up with.
--> Get a lady friend
Agreed.
To start writing again
To be more thoughtful with what I say rather than blurting it out
To move back to London by next Christmas
To start paying off my credit card.
That should do it.
Your NY resolutions should be
*Be slightly less of a miserable bastard than last year
*Achieve more than last year
keep 'em vague, makes them more achievable!
Mine are
*Learn more Japanese
*Do more exercise
*Learn to use Ableton Live
went back to uni
got pretty fit over summer
enjoyed myself
got a good job
this year it's all about
get good uni grades
go travelling in summer
curb spending
get fitter
start jamming again
gotta start planning on how to do them soon.
had a bonkers year, so hopefully next year will be less bonkers...
Move closer to work (and out of parents house)
Find a lovely man who wants to be with me (and vice versa obviously)
