Happy New Years!
So, it's officially 2009. A new year, and therefore time for the List of Resolutions.
10 things I resolve to do in 2009:
1) Write Complete and Post more fanfiction. I'm good at starting fics, but ending them? Not so much.
2) Write Original Fiction. I've been neglecting that.
3) Post to this journal at least once a week. Or 4x a month. Or at all. :) I'm terrible at using these things.
4) Comment when I read fanfic that I like. I'm quite lax with this and it's not really fair.
5) Continue learning to play bass without getting lazy about it.
6) Live healthier. I say this rather than diet or exercise - it seems more achievable.
7) De-clutter my apartment. This might belong on the other list though...
8) Move. I'm not fond of my apartment and need somewhere else to live.
9) Visit with T~ and Mr. Toast.
10) Procrastinate less. I'll do it later. :)
5 things I'm not going to resolve to do in 2009 (because I'm honest with myself):
1) Finish a novel. I could do it, but I never seem to actually get one done.
2) Set a weight loss goal - I never live up to those either.
3) De-clutter my apartment. It needs to be done but I'm an awesome procrastinator so...
4) Win a lottery :) If someone knew how I could successfully meet this goal I'll happily do it and share the money.
5) Set really specific goals for what I plan on doing since I never manage to meat the really specific ones.
I suppose it's a good thing that my 'resolve-to-do' list is twice as long as my 'not-resolving-to-do' list. I don't know why I'm actually making the list because it sort of falls under the specific goals thing in a way, and there's a reason it's on the second list. Oh well. I'm waiting to see if Fall Out Boy plays at the Dick Clarke New Years Eve show again, so I figured I might as well make a post.
To an awesome 2009.
