I will stop procrastinating in 2005. That has been my resolution for the past ten years. :p

I also want to buy a bigger home. That's not a resolution, but a goal.

This year, I decided against making resolutions. Instead, I am making monthly goals. And if I achieve a certain number of those goals quarterly, I get a nice reward!

Here are just a few of my goals:
-really kick start my Mary Kay business and make some extra cash
-maintain my exercise rountine and eat healthier
-work on the house and making it the way we want it

orchid2 01-02-2005 04:13 PM

- Graduate :)
- Study harder and raise my GPA
- Work on improving all of my relationships

Those are the big ones.

NEW YEAR'S DAY
Now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual. Yesterday, everybody smoked his last cigar, took his last drink, and swore his last oath. To-day, we are a pious and exemplary community. Thirty days from now, we shall have cast our reformation to the winds and gone to cutting our ancient short comings considerably shorter than ever. We shall also reflect pleasantly upon how we did the same old thing last year about this time. However, go in, community. New Year's is a harmless annual institution, of no particular use to anybody save as a scapegoat for promiscuous drunks, and friendly calls, and humbug resolutions, and we wish you to enjoy it with a looseness suited to the greatness of the occasion.

Mark Twain, Territorial Enterprise, January 1, 1863
