New years resolutions: go to the gym 3 times a week, eat less carbs, go to bed earlier, stop drinking coffee, make my bed every day, do homework on the weekends, shop less and never skip church.
What a lovely list.
Now let’s see, what will I actually do?
Well, I’ll probably go to the gym 4 times this semester. When I actually do have a free time, why would I want to go to the gym?
As long as I go to APU I will never be able to escape the carbs.
There will always be something more fun or important to do than go to bed.
No coffee? Hah.
My bed is lofted. No one will know if it’s messy.
Weekends are notorious for wasting time.
Shopping less could be a ligitimate goal. Only because my bank account continues to shrink.
And well, if I keep wasting my weekends, Sundays will be chained to homework.
So what’s my new year’s resolution for 2007?
Do life better than in 2006.
Pretty simple.
I can’t say I’ll loose those extra pounds The Clause has so graciously given to me or give up being known by name and drink at Starbucks.
But I will do what I did last year, better.
So I might make it the gym only 4 times this semester, but that’s a 100 percent improvement from last semester.
And with a smaller bank account, I guess I can be more prudent.
