What are your resolutions?

[imjustagirl]

I don't think these work like birthday wishes, so share.


Mine:

1. To get back in the gym, sign back up with Weight Watchers, and drop the weight I've gained back, plus a little more.

2. To get myself out of debt, improve my credit rating and get a car that I don't hate.

3. To figure out how to make myself happy without having it tied to someone else at any time.

 

[RossLT]

1. To continue my transition from asshole to being a good person and contributing to people other than myself
2. Go easier on my mom, she means well, but she can press my buttons like no one else
3. To not ever, ever, ever, ever get in the middle of disputes between people at work, this just happened in the last week and it was ugly for all of us.
4. To not be scared to try new things

I've already figured out how to make myself ... um ... happy. Now it's time to find someone else to make me happy.

 

[Ace]

1. To lose 10 pounds.
2. Pay off and cancel a credit card.
3. Work at family relationships.
4. Find a new job.
5. Not be chastised by Fenian for all of 2009.

 

[Songbird]

1. Save money and spend on necessities only.

2. Write some of the things I've been putting off, and begin the new ideas.

3. I'd say find peace of mind, but after this past Monday everything is peaceful. Totally peaceful. That will facilitate the rest.

 

[Sam Mills 51]

1) Swear less
2) Exhibit more patience, no matter the situation (That will be a TALL one ... )
3) Find an actual worthwhile job that better utilizes whatever skills I might possess.
4) Live in a better place
5) Be around people who communicate better and understand how utterly stupid selfishness is if they wish to be around that person.
6) Find happiness - some way, somehow.

 

[sportschick]

1) Get into a grad school I like in something I want to do
2) Get the hell out of journalism
3) Move closer to my family and friends
4) Lose another 20 or so pounds.

 

[luckyducky]

I might be the only one, but 2008 was a good year to me, so I hope 2009 will just improve on it.

1) Keep up with my workouts and eating right, even (ESPECIALLY) when I'm on the road for work. Excuses are for fat kids.
2) Complete a triathlon.
3) Find a place (city, state, apartment, whathaveyou) that I WANT to call home.
4) To resist falling back into old, bad habits.
5) To love on my friends (and family) at all possible times.

 

[writing irish]

1. Take the high road with my lunatic family.
2. Do better at work so as to eventually escape from Cow****istan.
3. Take better care of my body.
4. Manage my wretched financial situation better.
5. Have astounding amounts of sex.

 

[Lieslntx]

Well, let's see. Some of your resolutions have sparked a few for myself, though I rarely ever make them.

1. Smoke less. I already began this process on Christmas Day, so as not to fall into the New Year's Day doomed to fail thing.

2. Go back to college.

3. To figure out how to make myself happy without having it tied to someone else at any time.

Me, too!

1. Save money and spend on necessities only.

Always a good thing.

1) Swear less

I plan to swear more.

3) Move closer to my family and friends

I plan to move further away, however.

5. Have astounding amounts of sex.

Ditto!

 

[silvershadow1981]

1) Lose more weight (lost 22 pounds this year)

2) Find a new job...or a new career if/when it comes down to it

3) Be an asshole towards women...seems to be the only way to get some attention

4) Come to grips with my family issues

5) Make an effort to be social

6) Make an effort to be happy

 

[JLaff]

1. Keep going with my lone resolution of 08 - lose weight (37.1 so far)
2. Actually save some money
3. Make friends outside of the newspaper, probably the biggest thing I didn't do in college

 

[Angola!]

I don't believe in New Year's resolutions, but things I'd like to accomplish in the near future:

1. Continue to grow my sick mustache
2. Pay off and close my credit card
3. Quit smoking

Dude, you have like the facial hair of a 12-year-old. Just saying.

 

[Moderator1]

Too numerous to list.

However, I will say I expect 2009 to bring more change for me than any year has previously. With one exception, I've always been pretty good about changing things that need to be changed. So I got that going for me at least.

I am beginning to agree with number 3.

 

[Songbird]

Nah, just be yourself. Women can smell faux bull**** a mile away.

 

[JakeandElwood]

I just want to get back in the gym and eating better. I started out good this year but kind of fell off around the holidays.

 

[Moderator1]

So you made it 51 weeks? That's pretty damn good. I'd say if you made it 51 weeks, you earned the holidays off.

 

[pallister]

1) Not be so scared of life
2) See Angola's mustache
