Hrm. I can't seem to find my resolutions for 2010. It's possible I didn't make any, which was smart on my part. The list from 2009 is met with pretty grim results:
- 140 lbs by April 10th (Sakura-con) [Nope. Did make it down to 150 from 175 though.]
- 130 lbs by September 4th (PAX) [Definitely nope.]
- Passing grades in all courses [This went well for a bit while I was taking classes, but ended with nope.]
- Jog at least 3x per week [Yeah, nope.]
- Finish 4 console games [I don't think I even started that many.]
- Finish 2 PC games [I got halfway through Torchlight?]
- Learn to build a computer [Sort of yes! With lots of help from Beau.]
- Let hair grow passed shoulders [Yes! But then I cut it again. Currently at shoulders.]
- Volunteer at least monthly [Wish I had done this one.]
- Save $5000 in savings account [Not even close and no longer have a savings account.]
- Finish 50k for NaNoWriMo 2009 [Yes! I dominated NaNo2010.]
- Wake up by 6am every morning [Nope, but I do now because of work.]
- Major road trip with group of friends, destination tbd [This one is a very sad nope.]
- Actually update Rad Things on time [Rad Things is deceased, so nope.]
- Go back to school full time [That's a big nope.]
I'm glad to see I have at least a couple 'yes' marked in there. And despite the fact that I know making a list will only end in tears, here is my list for 2011:
- More will power in general, but especially when it comes to over-eating.
- Exercise more.
- Save 5000$ for road trip with Beau or different continent with mom.
- Get started on an AA degree.
- Call my family more.
- Sit on the couch less.
- Cook more / learn more complicated recipes.
- Destroy NaNoWriMo 2011 and write more in general.
It's a shorter list, but hopefully do-able!
I think it's cool that you actually create a list and reflect on it. NaNoWriMo is a big win!
ReplyDeleteI offer my services toward the cookery, if you need any ideas! I would also offer myself for exercisin's, but YOU DON'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE. :P
Deal! I can always use good recipes. I've been doing a lot of chicken, and most recently I tried salmon that didn't turn out too bad. Not great, but definitely edible lol.
ReplyDeleteWe can get our exercise jogging to each other. I'll meet you in Ellensburg on foot in a week. Go!
