I'm talking about your New Year's Resolutions. Yes, the list of things you promise yourself that you're going to do, but more often than not, don't. So, what are your resolutions, if any, for 2006?

I've only got three resolutions for next year, of varying difficulties to adhere to:
(1) I promise to myself that I'm actually going to go to university next September, assuming I am accepted, and that I will not shy away. I'm not going to suddenly get cold feet, I'm not suddenly running away. I've got to do it.
(2) I promise to every single day appreciate the people I can call true friends. I want to show my friends every day that they mean everything to me.
(3) I promise I'm going to try my hardest to beat my depression/schizophrenia for good.

What about yours? Are you going to keep to yours after about January 10th? Or do you just not believe in making New Year's resolutions?
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    I shall start drinking in moderation, instead of being the one who gets the drunkest :(

    I shall save money towards a new car instead of blowing it all on booze/gadgets

    I shall ...

    Sounds like the very act of signing up will be a work out.

    I will put all my work into folders and not leave it until the night before I go home to sort it out to take home for revision.

    I will also try not to hate semantics quite so much.

    Mine are:

    1) To continue with not smoking. This one *should* be easy. But we'll see.
    2) To get a decent job where they're not going to take advantage of my character.
    3) To keep up with all work.
    4) To not fail IB this year.
    5) And the really hard one - to get over the ex and not let him affect my relationships anymore.

    I will not get disheartened when applying for jobs and not get them.

    I will finish learning to drive and pass my test.
    I will work harder for my degree (which is more of an ongoing goal, really).
    I will lose lots of weight.

    Stop: Smoking, drinking so much, eating rubbish, wasting money on daft stuff, going out on school nights :p

    Fat chance of any of that happening, to be honest! :lol:

    I also want to fix up my old bike so I can sell it and be rich, and to start wearing a cycle helmet (after having witness a not-so-nice cyclist/bonnet collision the other day).
