So, it's a new year. Whoopidee dee. I personally hate making new year's resolutions, but at the same time, I like the guilt that seems to come with them. I don't think I've ever NOT made at least a few, and I don't think I've ever consistently held true to ANY of them. SO: here we go again. This time I'm going to rig it a bit so that I at least get a few of them.
Ten of them? Sure - and in no particular order:
10) GET LAID. For the love of god. I botched it once already, but I'm pretty much assured this once I get back up to Tech. I don't mean to harp on it, and it really doesn't have a whole lot to do with the 2 year thing, but at the same time, my girlfriend is hot, I like her, and its maddening not being able to do anything more than kiss her from time to time for the past two weeks.
9) Finish my grad school aps on time. I've got two out to VT and Carnegie Mellon, but I've still got Penn State, MTU, Louisiana State, and USC to go through. Not that I want to go to those last 4 as much as the first 2, but they should have been done and out by now and I'm coming way to close to the deadlines.
8) Budget myself better. I'm broke ass po', and I don't want to see my credit card bill when it comes in.
7) Manage to keep a girlfriend when I'm broke ass po'. This is going to take some doing, and if you have any ideas as to how to keep her when I can't spend money on dates, please, let me know.
6) Build myself a Linux box. I've got 3 boxes, all unused and in various stages of disrepair / being broken, sitting in my bedroom. My main machine is a piece, but that doesn't bother me too much since I use it for the interweb, ftp, some ssh'd coding, a little bit of bittorrent and edonkey, and finally mostly for pr0n. None of that is really intensive (save for the pr0n, but you don't need a processor for that).
5) Work out more, which includes at least an hour of lifting 3 times a week and at least a half hour of swimming 3 times a week. I'd like it to be closer to an hour of swimming and two of lifting, but that's a little much to be promising right off the bat.
4) Kick ass in senior design. I currently have either a 3 or a 3.5. I should have a 4.
3) Snowboard when I get the chance. As much as I can. I love it, but I still suck too much, and I desperately want to be better than I am.
2) Keep my girlfriend. I know I know, that's listed above, but she's seriously more than I deserve, and I know it. I just hope that she never realizes it.
And finally...
1) Somehow solidify what I'm going to be doing for the next chunk of my life. If that's grad school, than I need to know if I'm in. If that's work, than I need a job. If that's bumming around, than I need to shoot myself, or move to the caribbean and live on a beach.
Something like that, anyways.
Miss Any?
