New Year
So... this year started crappily. Or maybe not, because I was not feeling that bad after midnight, hanging out with a few friends. I'm not convinced that our Spanish New Year's tradition worked perfectly, but it couldn't have been worse than last year (and this time we had cava, even if the bottle was opened after midnight) and last year wasn't nearly as bad as the year before, so I'm going to believe in these Spanish traditions! We also went to see the second Hobbit film (also a tradition now!), which I liked probably more than the first one and didn't mind the extra stuff or extra romance (although I usually HATE added romance in films). I don't know.. I think it worked.
Despite going to bed a lot earlier than normal just after 3 am, convinced that I will finally wake up early, I ended up waking up/getting up later than normal at freaking 5 pm. Nice way to spend the first day of the year: sleeping. Obviously, after that I didn't feel like doing anything, so I continued being the slob I am. The New Year for me can start tomorrow and I will make changes in my life. (Yeah, right)
Part of the problem is that this apartment is just so cold that I don't even want to get out of bed. I mean.. it's not cold, and if I move around (eg. cleaning) I'm okay, but I want it to be... warmer?
Anyway: Plans (which always work)
-Arrange this apartment into a representable condition
-Buy a new pot, since the bottom seems burned beyond repair (I managed to burn stuff twice in one week. Go me!)
-Get some darn rubbish bins. (It's a little hard without them)
-Cutlery and other important stuff for... food.
-A new TV (Okay, I never had one, but I want one now)
-Thesis? (Hahahahahahahah. No seriously. It's been nearly two years already and I should really stop changing my topic, because it's not getting me anywhere)
-Read the overdue books. (Idiot)
-Start exercising again
-Less time on the internet? (At least try...)
-Get a job? Living by myself requires that.
-Pay the bills on time. (Oh.. drat....)
-Uhm... try answering messages
-Writing stuff a little more often
-Try to improve my language skills
-Doctor and dentist appointments
-Watch TV and films (this is the only plan/resolution I'm confident about and the reason it's here is, because it has a positive effect on... everything, especially my state of mind and test results.)
-And obviously: LOSE WEIGHT (at least last year I didn't put on any weight. Actually, I think I DID lose some weight, but very little. Yup, it's thanks to the Spanish New Year's tradition(s).)
