I knew this thing would come back and bite me in the ass!!
The thing about keeping a record about all the crap you've said in the past is that you have a RECORD of all the CRAP you've said in the PAST.I decided to take full advantage of my last days off before heading back to school, and looked through old blog entries in my pyjamas for two hours this afternoon (I've since showered. It's been a productive day). Anyhoo, I came across my list of new years resolutions from last year...lets see how I shaped up, shall we?
The Resolutions for 2005:
- Make exercise part of my daily routine (10-k in May hun?? Ooooookay...).
Ok, this one I actually DID...for a while at least. I trained almost every day and ran two 5Ks over the summer. Heh...then fourth year started.
- Decide what I want to do after 4th-year (masters degree or no masters degree...THAT is the question!)
I've made progress on this one. I've applied to a masters programme, but I still don't know whether I'm going or not. I have a Plan B if I don't get in though, so we'll count this one completed. Sweet!
- Make a concerted effort to meet more people in my field and new people in general.
Definitely did this one. I partied more with j-schoolers this year than I have the previous three years combined.
- Find a summer job where I will actually be happy (preferably one that also pays really well, but at this point the happiness factor is more important).
This one is another one that got half-done. I liked my job this past summer more than any of the gov't jobs I had previous, but if I'd been offered the position full-time I probably wouldn't have taken it. Still haven't found something stimulating enough...
- Bring some form of music back into my life, whether it be vocal or instrumental.
Umm...the short answer is No.
- Learn a new sport.
Long distance drinking?
- Write poetry.
0 for 3 people.
- Read at least 5 books outside of school.
Woohoo! I kicked this one's ASS!!! I read EIGHT (count 'em!) books over the summer, and another three over the holidays. YES!
Ok so the grand total iiiiiiis: 4/8
50%...THAT'S A PASS!!!! (Woah...11th grade math flash-back).
