new year resolutions 2011

[SuperSabin]

Gonna go ahead and start this early so everyone who has something they'd like to put down can go ahead and start listing what they want. Whats your resolution for next year

To start it off mine will be the following:

#1: To change my attitude - I haven't shown the greatest attitude towards people and I intend to change what I believe about people, my thoughts, and my actions as well. Those need some serious tweaking. I want to show that I am mature and well mannered no matter whom i'm speaking to not just that but I also want to show I could be trusted as well.

#2: To get a job - Still out on the hunt for these but I was given an opportunity for one recently and i'm hoping to be able to get in if the job is still open.

#3: Get in a relationship - This may not happen but i'll never know, i found to be interested in one of my friends I used to go to school with. Shes currently in a relationship with another guy but if she ever turns up available I would definitely like to get to know her better and be her boyfriend.

#4: Make new friends - I've made a few here and there but I should really get on the ball with this and start hanging with new people and getting to know them. Newer friends make for newer experiences.

#5: Get out more - This I really want to work on as well. I feel I don't spend enough time with my irl friends mainly because they're busy and stuff. But I figure if I get out more, I'd be satisfied with not being stuck at home as much. I could also use a change of scene.

#6: This goes along with #1 in terms of importance, but I plan to improve my relationship with the God I worship. I feel that it hasn't been a good enough walk and if I spend time with Him more, it will help me with the attitude and change my thoughts and beliefs in a good way. I've tried to do some things on my own and they've gotten me nowhere.

Well thats enough about my wants, what about you guys?

Mine is pretty much to get into better shape. I've been slacking with the gym lately and finding myself eating crap food just because it's quick and easy; and with my job, it's more efficient to take the easier route and eat something while driving. If I go to the gym more and eat healthier foods, I'll be set.

The other is to really just streamline my life and get rid of all the clutter. I'm surrounded by paperwork (some necessary and unavoidable, some totally useless). I'd like to be able to just either file or shred any and all paperwork pertaining to myself or any of my interests.

Everything else is really just a matter of time and out of my hands.

I want to become a millionaire. No more slacking off, I make this resolution every year, but this is my ****ing year.













and then we all die in 2012 omg

Mine is pretty much to get into better shape.

This as a general statement, not just physically but anything in my life that I think could use improvement or polishing.

[Unknown Entity]

I don't have any.

Yeah, sure... I want to get into better shape, but why do I need to make a New Year Resolution as an excuse to get off my ass and do something about it? Do I make it to spend the next fifteen days eating shit and sitting around on my backside doing nothing so that I have something to do/think about on the 1st of January?

I don't see the point. Everyone breaks their resolution(s), or makes one that's too easily within their grasp.

[Josh_R]

I have 2

1.) Finally f*cking get married. It is scheduled for April. So hopefully it'll happen then.

2.) Be a good father to my son when he finally gets here.

well pfft, not with that attitude

I don't take them super cereal or anything, but I like to think up of different goals for me to work on, and having the year start fresh is a good time just as any to start.

As far as goals? Get some money saved up so I can take trips over the summer, get buff so all the ladies wanna do me, and maybe this year is the year to make a facebook so I'll throw it in there too, haha.

[Meier Link]

I smell epic fail with this list but hell its worth a shot.

1: quit smoking
2: greatly reduce my drinking further
3: get back up to 165lbs. (getting there fast)
4: get my bike up and running in time for Stergis

I will add more to this in time. Oh and finding a new job that pays well and I can stay at for many years is a given.

[xXx Rikku xXx]

1) Stop smoking. >.<
2) Stop drinking COMPLETELEY. ( apart from news years party :3 )
3) Get into better shape for my prom. ^o^
4) Get my revenge.

[OceanEyes28]

1. Continue my exercise (it keeps me saaaane)
2. Produce a CD of my own music and get it on iTunes
3. Decide where I want to move (New York vs. LA)
4. Become comfortable with firearms
5. Take an Aikido class
6. Try to adopt a healthier love life, once I'm ready to resume one.

[smurphy]

The most important thing I want to do in 2011 is get motivated and stop being so damned apathetic about everything. Everything else follows. Then get a girlfriend( Yeah, I have made this resolution so many times before and motivation has been the biggest obstacle) and fine tune my fitness levels.

If nothing else I want to achieve something that I can look back on and be proud of. It feels like I am going through life achieving sweet f*ck all.

[Pete]

Haha Meier, I'd like to get down to 165 Depending on the scale I'm anywhere from 170 to 182.

I also want to apply for my shotgun permit, buy a nice lil shotgun and start shooting clay pigeons for sport. That, and a set of golf clubs, so I can take up that sport as well.

[Selquist]

4: get my bike up and running in time for Stergis

My New Years Resolution is to BUY my cousins 2006 Suzuki Boulevard and attend at least "one" biker event!

though not likely Stergis, as I hear it is ridiculously wild! >.>
And full of naked people half the time.
I'm sure I don't want to ride around all nekkid like. <.<

I wasn't aware you needed a seperate permit for a shotgun.
I suppose that means I'll have to get one of those as well.

[OceanEyes28]

OMG! Speaking of bikes, I really want to get my motorcycle license and save enough to get a Harley Sportster. <3333

I can do that by a year from now I bet.

P.S. Merged your posts for you. Next time, just use the edit button.

3. Decide where I want to move ...
4. Become comfortable with firearms
...
6. Try to adopt a healthier love life, once I'm ready to resume one.

Move in with me. Three birds, one stone .

Anyway. I'm not big on resolutions on New Year's ... if I want to change something, I've always figured, there's no reason to wait until a certain day to start changing it, because resolutions made on that day don't mean any more than resolutions made on any other day. What I would resolve to do, I've already started on.

Quit smoking -- a no-brainer. Smoking's bad, mmmkay?
Get in better shape -- I don't need to gain or lose weight, but I'd like to get a little more toned.
Follow through on plans -- Visit to Australia, rotary wing flight training, et cetera. I've got it figured out, now I just need to do these things.

lmao

I figure one of two things would happen: The sex would be opposites-attract-mindblowing or we'd mother****ing murder each other.

Trust me, it would be the former.

If the angst ever kicked in, we'd just funnel it all into the sex.

As for the latter ... well, I'd grow on you. In a figurative sense. First you'd start with the firearms, then slowly start valuing individual rights over group rights, and pretty soon you'd be open-carrying at a Tea Party rally.

Well I live in NYC, and they're super strict about things like that. They pretty much need to make sure ANY type of firearm is registered and accounted for. I don't blame them, but compared to the rest of the state, it's a bit much.

And as for resolutions, I don't really view it as something I start January first, but more like somewhere I'd like to be by NEXT January. So by next January, I'd like to be down to 165 and in better shape, and be as de-cluttered as I possibly can. I'm already working on the both of them.
