NYR

There’s a quote of the week board at work, and this week’s is pretty relevant to the topic of this post:

A New Years Resolution goes in one year and out the other.

The quote is listed as being by “Unknown Author” who it seems has made quite a few memorable quotes. Anyway, on topic.

I’m not making a new years resolution of any sort this year. Why? Well, lets look at last years resolutions:

  • Get my Ls
  • Lose 5 kilograms
  • Finish this year’s NaNoWriMo
  • No eating fast food
  • Move out
  • Get an orbital piercing
  • Watch 26 movies in the cinema
  • Buy an acoustic guitar
  • Buy a top hat
  • Stick with the video making thing, no matter how crap they are.
  • Learn a language

Now, lets list the ones I actually managed to do:

  • Get my Ls

Ok. So I’ve sort of kept with the video making, but I did stop doing it for a major period of time so I cannot count it. So, I can’t keep all those relatively simple resolutions, and I feel pretty shit for it. So I decided this year, I have skipped the whole affair, and therefore skip disappointment. See what I’ve done?

Is anyone else skipping the resolutions thing in favour of just enjoying the start of the decade?
