New year resolutions

Anyone actually going to try and do a resolution or few?

I am today on a fast as I have overindulged over Christmas and probably for quite a while. I think I will try and get more exercise and less toxic entities into my system. I won't make it a resolution as I will undoubtedly not stick to the resolution. I will just try a little harder.

And you?

Giving up giving things up.

Pain in the arse really only fooling yourself into thinking you are capable of giving up your vices when you are weak and in a week or 2 you will have forgetten about them and gone back to whatever you were giving up.

Its the people who succeed that scare me.

Get my full driving licence. 6 month timeframe.

Start and finish some website projects. One or two new websites on the way that should prove useful for people and open some minds on the way too. 1-6 month timeframe.

Shed a few of those pounds (or should I say Kilos)!:)

[nicK] · 01-01-2003 3:03pm

Instead of giving up anything, this year i'll be mostly wearin' g-strings...i mean, this year, im going to start doing more things...

Eat more fruit
Do more exercise
Study harder/longer
Practice harder/long (guitar)
Use free time

oh, and after spending the countdown to the New Years wasted in a toilet at the local (10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1..barf!) ... consuming alcohol won't be the regular accurance that it once was, in this New Year.

Trying to give up cigarettes or drink is a lesson in futility right now for me - especially as a New Year's resolution. If I do decide to give either up at some stage, it'll be quietly, privately and unannounced.

However - I AM going to read more, write more, travel more and (hopefully) improve my Irish and other language skills.

seamus · 01-01-2003 11:13pm

Spend more time reading books about useful stuff like mysql and c++ instead of arsing around here all the time

Lose a few kilos (a recurring theme this year it seems)

Get my full bike licence.

Stop ordering chinese when there's a spar 5 minutes down the road.

Get some biking boots.

I'm off the smokes, I could stand to lose a few stone but the cigs is mission number on for me. Anyone who says that they are going to study more are liars.
