2 Jan 2008 New Years Plans for 2008

Happy New Year everyone.

... Oh... I'm a little late. Still nevermind.

Hope your guys New Years celebrations were fun. My New Years was big load of last-minute-pub-get-together-with-some-friends-with-drinks-and-a-splash-of-karaoke. Not bad. But looking at some old friends' photos of their parties made me think that maybe I should have spent more time catching up with them.

But enough about me, let's talk about me.

And I'm talking about New Years Resolutions.

After stumbling upon Secretia's New Years Resolution list for 2008 I thought to myself "Hell I'll give it a go myself". So I sat down and jotted down a list of things I think I can improve about myself.

And with that, as you all as my witnesses, I wish to present to you in no particular order, my list:

• Keep my room tidy - I thought I can cope with my 'systematic chaos' but really, the ever-creeping piles of crap is getting silly. I'm starting to lose things in my room it's that bad. No more I say!
• Learn Spanish - Just a little pet project I would like to do so that when/if I go to a Spanish speaking place I'll be ready for 'em
• Manage my time better - Between all the long hours spent at work, going to the pub with colleagues, procrastinating and playing games I felt like that I just run out of time to do stuff, or to even do nothing. I want my spare time back dammit!
• Find me a woman and keep her this time - Arguably the hardest and most important item on the list. Still I'm getting better at this woman malarkey...
• Manage my money better - Despite getting a higher paid job last year there still seems to be some plugholes where money seems to drain away. I need to plug them up and I think I know where they are
• Write my blog entries on time - I've been writing several entries in batches instead of a constant stream for a short while now. I don't know if it really a problem but it doesn't seem to be what professional do in the real world, does it?
• Look after my body better - I'm talking about getting back into exercises, eating more fruit and veg, get back into dancing. I let myself go over the months and it's starting to show.
• Spend more time playing with Flash - I've got a couple of ideas I wanna try out.
• Study the mystic arts to become Sorcerer Supreme - I'm sure I can fit that in somewhere...

I'm sure you will agree this list is quite achievable. Only time will tell.

Until 2009.

Happy New Year! And great resolutions, too. I always make LOADS too. In fact, this year, I've made a SPIDER DIAGRAM of resolutions. How geeky is that?! :p

Whu..? You have so many resolutions that they almost intertwine with each other? Now that I gotta see!
