so around this time, last year, i was posting about my new year's resolutions. and i just wanted to go and see how many of them i actually resolved (?).

here's the post from last year.

welp, here i am again. still awake. 3 and a half hours past the time that i wanted to go to sleep. in the past few hours, i've juss been thinking about my new year's resolutions. ever since i've heard of these so called resolutions, i've never been the person to actually make these. like, you know how your teachers used to make you write some down or something near new years. well, i never did that. i juss never thought of actually doing something like that. but anyways. that didn't really make sense. here are some of the resolutions that i've come up with:

- eat 3 regular meals a day
- really concentrate on school
- learn to be more passive with my dad
- learn not to dwell on things too much
- stop being mean to people
- refrain from calling people names
- keep in touch with friends
- don't procrastinate

that's basically all i can think of right now. i don't really know if i'll be able to go through with most of those but i think that they shouldn't be that hard. it's juss that i usually don't have the determination to do most of the things that i start. oh, well, there's another resolution.

- finish things that i start

oh, i juss thought of another one

- don't give up on things so easily

well, i think that's it. we'll see what happens in the coming year eh? i really do wish that a new year does come with new experiences and such. it would be really nice if everything could juss start over or something. but i guess that's not gonna happen. i have no idea what i'm talking about anymore. it's getting late.... good night

well, not there wasn't a lot, so i guess that's a good and bad thing. good thing cause then i could just type less. bad thing cause i dont think i did so well.

so, "eat 3 regular meals a day" - from what i recall, i did try to do that. and i think i did for a little bit, but i kinda just lost the push or something. but i can say that i have been eating more this year. and i did gain a few pounds.

"really concentrate on school" - i couldnt really say what happened in my spring semester, but in my fall semester i think i did relatively okay. i didn't drop any of my classes. i went to almost all of them (even though i did sleep through most of it). and i did pretty good, i think.

"learn to be more passive with my dad" - i dont really recall a time this year that i actually did get angry or irritated at him. i think that's a good thing. and a few times this year when my mom wasnt home and me and him went to eat lunch, those were okay.

"learn not to dwell on things too much" - i'm not really sure if this one is a good thing to resolve or not. but i dont think that i really had anything to dwell on.

"stop being mean to people" - hmm....that's a hard one. i think i'm still mean, but that's okay. i think. it's not like i really hurt anyone, i hope. but if i did, and you're reading this. i'm sorry.

"refrain from calling people names" - look at the mean one. i think these two are one in the same.

"keep in touch with friends" - this one i think was probably the hardest. just because i had so much stuff i had to take on. but the few moments that i was able to enjoy with people, i really enjoyed. i cant really think of one bad memory with friends this year.

"dont procrastinate" - this one is really hard to get over. though, i can honestly say that i did try.

"finish things that i start" - hmm. i think i was able to get this one through my head over the summer. i think i've finally got through thinking of what i want to do with my life and such. and i'm gonna go do what i need to do to get there. and hopefully, i'll be able to finish what i started.

"dont give up on things so easily" - at around the same time that i thought about what i want to do, i also came to the realization that in order to get there, i cant give up on it. even though the path may be long and hard, i just cant give up. giving up is just a sign of weakness, and i dont think that i am.

well, that's it. this break from school has been pretty full. lots has been happening. but i think i'll save that post for another day. possibly tomorrow? probably not, because i have to work tomorrow. but, if you read this post, i hope you got something out of it or something else. if you didn't read it through, i hope you enjoyed reading what you did read. and to everyone, i hope you have a happy, safe new year's. don't go kissing everyone you see, cause you might not know what they have =).
