2K10

I hope everyone's Twenty-Ten is off to a grand start!

It's that time of the year again. Let's take a look at those old resolutions:

1. Re-try my third resolution from last year: Every week, I will have something creative constructed to show for my effots throughout that week. To maintain this, I'll keep a weekly record to be posted on my other blog, here.
2. Up my GPA by two points for next term. (This shouldn't be too hard. For our non-Laurier readers, our school works on a twelve point system.)
3. Be healthier in these respects:

• Eat less grease. (i.e. Switch to margerine instead of butter and limit my use of the deep frier.
  
• Make a five minute effort towards physically demanding excersize each day.
  
• Floss daily.

This has been the most epic failure of resolutions to date. I haven't made a post since June; I switched out of my program to avoid resolution number two; and though my grease intake is down, I have done nothing for my body or my gums.

Yet, these are largely not my concerns for the new year. My resolutions for 2010 will be as follows:

1. Make use of the little moments for some personal development. For example, when I have nothing to do at the office, I should try some creative writing.
2. Speak with clarity! Too often, people tell me that they don't understand my accent.
3. Be generally more conscious of my health. I know I won't hit a gym, but I could certainly walk to the slightly further convenience store to buy my Rudbull. (It's the little things that count, right?)

I wish I gave that more thought, but I didn't.

Happy 2009, folks! I suppose this is the primier post of the year on honeygarlic.blogspot.com, so without further delay:

F1RST!

Now that that's out of the way, here are my 2008 resolutions:

Every day, I will go out of my way to do at least one thing that makes me physically stronger.

Every day, I will learn something that makes me mentally and morally stronger.

Every week, I will have something creative constructed to show for my efforts throughout that week.

Every month, I will eat something I believe to be allergic to - just to see if I really am or not.

Not bad. I blew the first two in September, having moved back to Brantford and lost the will to excercize. As for the third, it was arguably lost around May/June. Not for any particular reason... I just lost the habit.

My final resolution was to eat something I believe to be allergic to. (Wow... that's bad grammar.) I did this once a month, every month, until now. (As I type this, I have four hours to eat a shrimp to keep at least that one resolution from last year. I found sushi! Got it covered! Uh oh, my throat's closing...)

Here are my resolutions for this year:

1. Re-try my third resolution from last year: Every week, I will have something creative constructed to show for my effots throughout that week. To maintain this, I'll keep a weekly record to be posted on my other blog, here.
2. Up my GPA by two points for next term. (This shouldn't be too hard. For our non-Laurier readers, our school works on a twelve point system.)
3. Be healthier in these respects:

• Eat less grease. (i.e. Switch to margerine instead of butter and limit my use of the deep frier.
  
• Make a five minute effort towards physically demanding excersize each day.
  
• Floss daily.
  

That's it for me. You may recal, Ryan's resolutions were 1280x768. I have reason to believe he's kept them. I'm sure our beloved readers can expect a post shortly from him.
