"Good resolutions are useless attempts to interfere with scientific laws. Their origin is pure vanity. Their result is absolutely nil. They give us, now and then, some of those luxurious sterile emotions that have a certain charm for the weak. That is all that can be said for them. They are simply cheques that men draw on a bank where they have no account."

Yeah but what are your 2016 resolutions?

Keep practicing photography.

2015

Well... iirc... I did excellent because I didn't make any. 

'Course... knowing me... I probably did but completely forgot so... !@#$

 

2016

• Find a nice one bedroom apartment to move into
• Make at least $15/day from mTurk
• Open a CD
• Attend Wizard World Tulsa (or Austin, Albuquerque, St. Louis... all the above)
• Buy & build a PG (perfect grade) gunpla

[NapisaurusRex]

Yeah! Fuck Christmas! Let's go JANUARY!

 

Last year I resolved to read 104 books, eat 6 cups produce a day, and get a job.

 

I got a job and read all the books plus some. I ate a ton of produce for a while and fell off the wagon. I did eat over 100 different kinds of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and animals this year though. 

 

So uhhh... find a new form of passive income that makes $350+ a month cause I'm going to lose my current passive income in the next six months. Continue working on the eating produce thing. Don't bother making reading books a goal, cause apparently I can nail that without trying. Find a way to pay for a health coach certification program and enroll. 

To be honest though, I just read a book called 5 AM Miracle by Jeff Sanders and he has a pretty solid idea of making quarterly goals and projects that I think I'm going to try instead of doing a New Year's resolution thing. So while I say these are my New Year's resolutions, I'll probably be working on them one at a time in 3 or 4 month segments.

1. Run 1000 miles over the year

2016

• If I make it into the school of music: Stop swearing! (at least as much ) Hopefully going to do music education
• If I don't make it into the school of music: Pass the audition the 2nd/3rd time or find a new career
• Get into a relationship! 3 years is too long (I've been going through some stuff )
• Get a job!

[Waser Lave]

As anybody who stalks me will know I don't do New Year's resolutions but I'll list some things I've wanted for a while, just for larks.

 

1. New job

2. Relocate.

3. Teach The Dog that it's not acceptable to only bark at black people. You bark at everybody or you bark at nobody, them's the rules.

4. Figure out a sustainable way to be happy.

 

2. Get @Waser Lave to move to London

 

Be careful what you wish for @Ali. (I wonder what the odds would be on your next year's resolution including sending me back up north )

 

4. Be kinder

 

I'm saying nothing.

[NapisaurusRex]

Because I know all of y'all are just riveted by my neurotic planning abilities, I also wanted to share the name of one of the planners I'll be using in 2016. It's called the Spark Notebook. I half ass followed a free printable I got in the middle of this year, but I think I'd have better luck with it if I started at the beginning.

I'm saying nothing.

Oh don't teach the pup not to be racist, I find that hilarious. I'm going to be best mates with her when you move down.

Pub trips with me are a very sustainable sort of happiness.

I'm immensely kind to you. Compared to most. This evening I was kind.
