normally i don't bother with new year's resolutions, mainly due to the fact that i'm too lazy to improve. lol, seriously. i'm that lazy.
but lately, i've been thinking to myself, 'self, it's time to do something different. take more opportunities. stop selling yourself short. get what you deserve, and fight for it if you have to.'
so i resolve to do a few things this year.
1. i need more exercise. (muffin top and jelly arms are NOT pretty. DAMN YOU, halloween, thanksgiving, christmas, new year's... and all those days before, in-between, and after!!!)
2. drink less. not that i drink excessively, but two nights ago, my ulcer made itself known again and the results weren't pretty. not that i was throwing up, mind you, but, well, as much as i'd love to describe what happened, many of you, i fear, are quite squeamish about that sort of thing.
3. have less people walk over me. yes, i'm nice, but i refuse to be a push-over.
4. organize my thoughts. awww, forget that, it's freakin' impossible!!!
5. finish writing one of my chapter fics. preferably "onegai, senpai".
6. spend less time on ff.net. actually, i think i'll quit that site once "onegai" is complete. i'll have to tolerate horrible grammar, pairing wars, and reusable story ideas for just a smidge longer.
7. not necessarily find love, but make myself more open to the idea of going out, being sociable, and meeting more people. there's nothing wrong per se about staying in and watching television, but i'm setting myself up to marrying the pizza delivery guy if that keeps up. *shudder*
8. be more honest with myself. uhh... let me cross off #s 4-6...
9. visit my dad more often. it used to be once every 3-4 weeks, but now that i have a car to myself, that's just ridiculous. plus, i like my stepmom, and she likes karaoke-ing and drinking (though i'll have to keep #2 in mind) just as much as i do, and we both like to team up and poke fun at my dad's antics.
10. make plushies. the more i think about it, the less difficult the work looks. but before i can accomplish #10,
11. learn to sew. NICELY. not just haphazard stitches, and making seams so horribly tight that the buttons don't button right...
12. tidy up more. because this morning i broke a CD, and fortunately it was some useless CD-ROM crap...
13. look for a second job. i do absolutely NOTHING from 5pm-10:30/11pm. i could easily make an extra $300 a week...
14. spend a lot less time in front of the computer.
and with that said, i bid everyone adieu, because i've got some work to do. happy 2007, though mine is starting off on the wrong foot~!!
lies!!!,
i'm a pony!,
