1. Stop slacking off on schoolwork, even though it's pointless and I already know the material.

2. Get back into the swing of things. And by "swing", I mean pants, and by "things" I mean people.

  2. Really, stop being a god damned slacker.

  1. Improve my diet and get back into shape.
  2. Get back into college (applying for places pretty much as soon as January comes in).
  3. Get some serious work done on my writing, both as a hobby and in preparation for college.

  2. Don't fail my online class(es)
  3. Be more active in my hobbies...instead of just looking at other people's photos of signs, for example, go out and shoot my own.

Well, I want to produce two non school related artworks a month. Minimum. The first project must be business cards for myself, so I can actually give them to people.

Also, a 3.75 GPA for this semester would be great.

Lastly, here's a lovely article from Cracked concerning New Year's resolutions. http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-reasons-your-new-years-resolution-going-to-fail/

  1. Keep a better sleep schedule. More precisely, go to sleep within 11:00 PM unless I have some pressing reason to stay awake longer (I dunno, a party or something like that).
  2. Get my phd, and find a good postdoc position.
  3. Publish at least three more papers.
  4. Be more organized. Use a journal and keep more attention to your to-do list.

1. More exercise. I must become Whippet-like. If whippets were built like brick shithouses. Huh. Um...Rottweiler-like?

2. More flying. Seriously. My licence is in danger of dying of vitamin D deficiency, it so seldom gets out.

3. Continue preparations for TEOTWAWKI.

4. Become A NAVAL OFFICER.

Ah, OK. Thanks.

I must say, I am impressed that no one made a "1024x768" joke yet. They seem to be everywhere at this time of the year tongue

  • Perfect scores in all subjects and absolutely nothing less.
  • Accept my current school reputation and make the most out of it for the common good.
  • Stop being pathetically dependent on online friends while trying to support my IRL peers, and refrain from wishing them violent deaths when they're too busy to deal with my wangsting.
  • Better and more effective leadership in everything except group sports.
  • If possible, enter fencing.
  • Find internship maybe?
  • Read at least one long text per week.
  • Be fluent in basic conversational Mandarin.
  • Work on my blog thing.
  • Save more money for donations.
  • Acquire a black peaked cap, a dark brown/black akubra and a red fez. If possible, for less than a month's allowance for each.
  • More arts.
  • Learn One Tree Hill on the guitar and play it on a school event.
