New Years Resolutions!! (non Uni)

I figured this thread was already here, but I don’t see it.

It’s NewYears Eve or Day depending on where you live! What are you resolutions, non uni related, as those are posted in RSU.

Mine are on the dry side, but are as follows:

  1. Publish papers from my dissertation.
  2. Change my oil more frequently.
  3. Take a lot of things to the second-hand shop regularly so I have less stuff and more room than now.
  4. Use fewer exclamation points in emails and posts except in reply to Chosen, who likes them.

My kid’s resolutions are the tops; I think I’ll take on his as well:

  1. Make friends
  2. Be the best I can
  3. Like people
  4. Keep room clean

stopp bitting my fingernails… nasty habbit… basically all that i can think of

  1. survive til next year
  2. stop trusting blindly
  3. find another/better job

oh, and to actually enjoy my birthday this year :stuck_out_tongue:

1)get the girl that ive liked for 6 months or so.
2)be nicer to teachers
3)get better grades

that to

Chase

man, you two are lucky. I’m finally being kicked out into the “real” world :stuck_out_tongue: sad really :stuck_out_tongue: good luck with your grades :wink:

2005 has been such a good year for me - I learned to Uni and got on the doctorate course that I’d been trying for the previous couple of years to get on - I don’t know if I’ve got any resolutions for 2006. Usually I go for ‘goals’ rather than ‘resolutions’ anyway.

Probably my resolution would be to survive the year - 100 miles a day travelling and all the academic work that it will involve. And to do as much uni related stuff as possible.

get better grades.
become a better person!
find God. well, saying it like that sounds real lame…but you know what I mean.
get better grades.
run a sub-5 minute mile
average sub-20 on my rubiks cube
unicycle a LOT more

I think your exclamation points are neat podzol, you can keep using them if you want (:

reminds me of my fave bumper sticker

i swear, you steal my thoughts.
as for the ones you DIDN’t steal…

3)Stop picking my lip… (MY nasty habit that i truly hate…)
4)Learn to hop on BC
5)Get better at welding
6)get strong BC plates that work well UNTIL i get better at welding.

workout more, get buffer
learn to drive
get leetz0rer guitar/bass skills
spend less time staring at my computer screen

um
thas al i can think of

i think thats my only one also

P.s. what kind of welder you have? Mig i suppose or arc? tig?

wirefeed/mig.
i can convert it to mig, but i haven’t found the conversion kit anywhere yet.

Well my main resolutions this year do apply to the uni, since I’m still a budding learner.

Other than that, all I basically am asking myself to do is to stay close to my family, stay loyal to my friends, and keep my hitlist blank. What more can you ask for?

  1. Narrow down my girlfriends from 25 to 20. I just can’t keep up with them all…
  2. Keep it real
  3. Find a real job
  1. Care more about school than working. When I get it mixed up it makes school alot harder.
  2. Say no to people when i want.
  3. buy things for myself
  4. workout… this has been here for years… lets see if I break it again.

-no more soft drinks
-care more about skool
-manage my time better

I think the first one is the only one that will stick

but what about the ROOT BEER?
I don’t think i could live without root beer.

  1. Get accepted to UCF, FSU, FIT, USF, or UF (eh)
    1.5) Apply for and recieve as many scholarships as possible
  2. Start lifting weights (I can bench ~100lbs as of now)
  3. Party less, and only on weekends
    3.5) Stop smoking so much pot :roll_eyes:
  4. Get some ideas off the paper (get patents)
  5. Focus on school, 100% (even when the waves are 2ft overhead :()
  6. Play more soccer

…Pretty much get my priorities straightened out and realize that some things, as good as they seem(ed), weren’t meant to be (relationship issues…)…

EDIT:
7) Get a better paying job than bussboy ($4.50/hr + tips) (I need something that I can shine in, like a network technician or graphic designer…)

BOO!!!

HISSS!!!

BOOO!!!
