What are your new year resolutions, and are you likely to stick with them?

Asked by Ame_Evil (3051points) December 25th, 2009

I probably won’t, but I shall list them here for my own amusement.

1. Read more, including articles for my university course
2. Be more patient, especially in poker
3. Try to balance work with fun
4. Try to make new friends
5. Try new foods that I usually wouldn’t try
6. Learn at least one new song on keyboard
7. Be less tight with money
8. Find a job

P.S. If you make the “1920×1080” joke, I will track you down and slit your throat whilst you sleep.

1. Stay on a consistent weight training program working 2–3 times per week
2. Gain healthy weight and look better
3. Stay motivated and no slacking off, so I can appreciate my free time more

I was resolving to change my avatar to one ready to celebrate the New Year, but the site is broken so I can’t do it!

Wow, this could be a new record, I have broken the resolution before the year even begins, heheheh!

My new years resolution is to stop being a second hand smoker.

I’m not profoundly confident I’ll be able to keep it.
