New Year's resolutions

For me more time spent reading my books and less time on the Internet.

Trying to have less stress in my life.

I often find that staying away from the news keeps me happy. My resolution is to have no resolutions.

Several changes in my life in 2008: job will come to an end at the end of the year (really looking forward to it). Good friend has invited me to teach and train her two girls. Avoiding unhealthy people on the internet more consistently. Taking less care of news and politics. Reactivate my writing hobby, which had been put at rest for ten years now. My interest in computer, internet and games has decreased since two years - i do not plan to stop that trend.

I don't do the resolution thing, but 2008 will be a good year if I can coax a badger into a game of chess.

Going higher than last time, that is reach 7000m + on a mountain somewhere... (Hard to promise, but I can at least promise to do an honest attempt)

cheers Porphy

There has been only one new years resolution that ive ever made, and stuck with.

That resolution was to stop lying to by making new years resolutions i never follow through with.

For me 2007 has been one of the worst years if not thee worst year of my life, that i can remember, ive been ill through most of it, i lost my job my home my girl friend im in £6,000 worth of debt, im still ill ive lost so much wieght i went from being 12stone 2lbs down to just over 8 stone 8lbs (im about 9 stone now).
In this year ive lost alot of people who i loved and cared for, ive been in trouble more times than i can remember, ive come close to loosing my second job this year, i was turned down by the Royal Navy and also the Army.
A mate of mine ended in intencive care on the 24th of december cause 6 mindless people decided to beat him up for no reason and leave him for dead, ive learnd that my dad has an incurable heart problem and that the problem is also heriedtry, ive been blames for nearly everything that has gone wrong this year, ive crashed two lorries one just yesterday from this post.

So im saying UP YOURS 2007 roll on 2008 and in 2008 i will be following certain things.
  • Calm down and not stress so much
  • Acctually get into the RFA
  • Learn Krav Maga
  • Get a new girl friend
  • try and make a mends for what went wrong in 2007
Just simple things though, and they are not unrealistic.

Mate you shouldn't be stressing at your age, stress is for us oldies. Well anyways not a good yr you had. Wish you all the best for 2008! It will get better

Back to the topic: For me I got no resolutions. I never stick by them im just pissing in the wind with my great resolutions ideas that end up fading into the nothingness!
