Happy 2010...
Happy New Years! It's 2010!!
You know what that means??
It means that it's time for New Years Resolutions!!
We all know what resolutions entail ... Lose 20 pounds, Stop eating chocolate, etc.
That's not what I'm going to do this year.
Why? Because it's stupid. And no one ever follows that shit.
So instead of Resolutions, I'll have a list. (It'll be a list of things I want to accomplish in 2010,,,)
I thought I would share them with you.
Here are the goals.
1. Get healthy.
Get Healthy =/= Lose 20 pounds!!!
It means get active, eat in moderation, and indulgences are okay every once in a while.
Which means I'm not giving up Chocolate!! (Like I'd ever give up Chocolate.)
2. Get a job.
This is pretty much self explanatory. (If it's not, Job = Money = Me Not Broke!!)
3. See King Tut at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO).
I wanted to see this with my mom during the Holiday's, but we decided not to.
We'll try and go during January or February. :)
4. See the Harry Potter Exhibit at the Science Center.
Self Explanatory. It'll be in Toronto from April or something. Not sure. But I'll be there. :D
5. Go to a BUNCH of Toronto Events.
This means I want to go to the Jazz Fest, Jazz on the Beaches, the Pride Parade, Caribana, TIFF, Hot Docs(?), The Ex, NYE @ Nathan Phillip Square, etc. Clearly you understand what I'm talking about.
Also, go and see some of my favourite bands in concert. Seriously. Live shows are the ish!
6. Go to Irvine, California for the Pan Pacific Swim Championships.
Umm .. can you say 'swimming fan'?? Because if you can, please do. Seriously, it's the only big international swim meet that is going to be somewhere in North America. And who doesn't want to go to California and see hunky swimmers. Plus it's going to be in an outdoor pool, which, for some reason, is oddly appealing.
7. Read one book a month. **Suggestions in the comments please and thanks**
I'd say per week, but that could prove difficult in the long run. I miss reading books. (I'm not saying I don't read. I do ... just not books/novels.)
8. Travel.
If I can travel to new cities/countries, then why not. I'll keep it on my list as a kind of bonus goal to accomplish.
9. SLASH/Fanfic.
No, I'm not going to be writing any slash/fanfic. I'm just going to read more. That's all.
Goal #9 on the list is a give away goal for my self. It's the kind of goal that I will follow through enthusiastically. And I'm sure that the slash writers might be happy about this.
Umm .. I can't really think of anymore things I'd like to accomplish in 2010. If I do come up with something else, I'll post it.
As the year progresses, and more blog posts come up I'll keep you guys updated on the progress of the goals.
