I have thought about doing this, but given my track record... I've never been able to remember my new year resolutions. LOL. But what the heck. 1. Finally achieve that MD - after 6 years of toiling and over 15 years of dreaming 2. Travel more (USA, mebbe? >.>) 3. Save up for my wedding and honeymoon, and possibly a new home I would add more, but meh. Can't think of any. BUT! I will attempt to do at least one thing in my '101 Things To Do Before You Die'.

1. lose about 50 lbs, anything that will make me feel better about my appearance. 2. try to quit smoking 3. To be less judgmental of my appearance and accept myself as I am
Reason: I don't want to end up with diabetes or cancer *even if I do or don't carry the cancer gene* and I seriously need to accept how I look and stop putting myself down so much...and old habits die hard especially when one spent most of their childhood being ridiculed by peers. I'm just hopeful that 2010 is better than 2009...true 2009 had some good points..but the end of this year has sucked royally...and I'm ready for a positive change.

I will be very blunt and put myself 'out there'. My goals... 1. quit smoking so my lungs can heal, even just a little bit, so i dont have to depend on an oxygen generator anymore. 2. become more mentally balanced and maybe lessen the amount of meds i am on. 3. learn to be happy with myself 4. lose the weight the medications have packed on. I have hope...not alot, because i am forever a pessimist..lol..but I have hope that my goals can be attained so that I can live a longer and healthier life with my loved ones. edit: I know I gave more than 3 ...but ..well...what are you gonna do...sue meh ~scampers off~

Start a new chapter in my life by entering into the real world...scary HAHA! That's exactly what I was thinking. Word, yo Ahem, 1. Gain at least 10 pounds and keep it 2. Start treating my appearance more responsibly 3. Learn to like what I'm doing at uni and thereby stop procrastinating 4. Read the 200+ books I have on my comp (and finish reading the 7+ paper books I've started >.>') 5. More or less - start having better control over my dopamine neurotransmission and d2 receptor-binding >.< Reason: I dunno... Insert Josh's post here >.> It's a confessional thread, not a game. Though having to think about it, I don't have a reason xD Perhaps the concept that failing in life is bad?

1) have a selfish vacation, my hubz & I. 2) get moving on my arts & crafts. 3) learn to let go... and be patient.
I consider myself very lucky to be where I am, on the path I am on, with the enlightenment teachings I follow. I am constantly amazed at the people who get put on my path for the specific purpose of guiding me in what I need to learn, even amidst the disguises.
I hope that the friends I have in difficulty will find harmony, serenity and good fortune.
well, for myself, my hope that this next year, even though 2010 will still be a bit on the financially poorer side, will bring better times for 2011... 2010 is a stepping stone.
reasons for hope: .... ~C~, that's a deep question.. lol maybe that's why some are hesitant to respond. My reasons for hope are that I can accomplish anything I set my mind to, I've survived too much shit to give up now..

1. Take better care of my health. 2. Spend more time with the family. 3. Become a better role-model for my neices and nephews.
Reason: My baby nephew. I was there when he was born, and I want to still be here for him as he grows up.

5. More or less - start having better control over my dopamine neurotransmission and d2 receptor-binding >.< I get that. I sooo get that >.> 1: Not almost die again this year. That was messed up. I don't normally make resolutions because so much can get in the way of keeping them and I feel guilty if I can't follow through. I have life goals which I will reach, but not all of them can be taken care of this year... and because of that I prefer to have a list of intentions. I intend to raise hell if my Uni keeps jacking me over. I intend to harm any male who tries to take advantage of me again I intend to work my ass off and get my BA (dependent on Uni and jacking me over) I intend to get off of unemployment because it makes me feel lazy I intend to get help for my brother and his mental condition, even if it means he goes to jail. I intend to do some stupid shit that really seems like a good idea at the time I intend to keep my health under control and not end up in the ER again. I also intend to prod further into the causes of said condition and make sure it doesn't come back >.> I intend to try and curse less, as it really isn't very ladylike or professional I intend to be an absolute pain in the ass And I have hope because I know I can get all of those things done, or make good headway toward getting things resolved because I have the knowledge and resources to make it happen. That, and people keep telling me I can't, which just makes me more determined to do it

Alright... me...
1. Gain 5-10 pounds so I don't need a belt and feel less like a scrawny... me. 2. Get through this year, quit university and do something I enjoy. 3. Go to California and get my trainer's license... 4. Stop eating/drinking so many milk products.
Reason: 'Cause I need to before I go stir crazy down here.

1. Travel more. I want to travel at least one country a year if I can. If I can’t in a single year, then I insist that I travel twice in another. I want to see beyond my shores and reach past my own experiences to see what lives other people live. I want to be a fly on the wall of their day to day living and soak in the atmosphere they live. For however long I can.
2. Happiness in all its forms. Love of a good man, love of family, love of myself and what I am, love of the people who populate my life with their presence. Love of my career and where it’s heading and what I can do to make my day to day life something I look forward to each and every day. Which I have, so that means finding a way to improve on what I have. And to love deeply in return.
3. Mowing my grass. I fucking hate it. I don’t own a mower. Hate that it’s so tall and so ugly but also hate mowing it myself. I’ve seriously considered paying some poor bastard to do it for me. It’s only postage stamped sized but dammit.
4. I wish my herb garden to live. I want to know what they all are, recognise them and then know how to cook with them to flavour my food. I know Basil, Coriander, Oregano and Parsley but dammit I’ve forgotten what those other ones I’ve planted are. I want my lettuce to grow, there’s only four of them so I only have four chances to succeed. Same with the broad beans. I’m not green thumbed, but they’re not dead yet by god, and higher power willing they’ll continue to live until I kill it to eat it. Thus is the cycle of life.
5. I need to ensure my daughters are happy and will learn new things in the coming year. I wish them the patience and understanding that comes from experience and knowledge. I’d like them to learn more about honour, respect and trust. I want them to know they are as loved as any two girls could be loved, across oceans and seas and families that stretch over two hemispheres.
6. Pare back my self indulgence. It’s my weakness. A little personally folly I can’t help but indulge, and have difficulty saying no to.
Where is my hope based? In me. There is nothing that should be done, can be done, must be done that must not first be done, facilitated or inspired by me. I am the embodiment of my own hope, my own future and my own happiness. If I want it, if I need it, if I must strive for it… then the only person who can make it be what it needs to be.
Is me.
If hope fails it is because I failed to maintain hope.

Yet another inspiring thread that I must partake in! 1. Pop out this baby girl. Not really a goal because it's going to happen, but all of these things listed here NEED to happen, so I'm just putting this at the top of the list because it'll come first. 2. Be less of a couch potato and eat healthier. Those two things will help in my goal to lose weight and keep me from watching "The Biggest Loser" with a desire to be on the show. 3. Finish one--just ONE--of these three manuscripts and be content with it. If I get published, great! If not, that's okay because I'll become the next best thing: a contest diva. 4. (This is there, but it's far too personal to share. It's a goal of mine and that's all I can say. Just take comfort in knowing that I'm thinking of it right now as I type this.) Hope & stuff: My growing family inspires me to be a better wife and mom; my hope resides in them.
