it's a whole day into the new year, and i might be slightly late with this -
but hey! it's better slightly late than VERY late (my usual standard).


2010 resolutions:


1. (i'll address my most pertinent problem here) i'm going to be less tardy, starting with school. i'm going to turn up for school on time, and even sit through ponnable lectures just to make sure i don't wait until 10 days before the exam to watch a whole semester's worth of webcasts.



2. i'm going to kick ass in the coming semester, so as to deprive umich of any reasonable reason to deprive me of a transfer admission. by the end of this year, if nothing works out - not even the winter 2011 admission, i'm going to shut up, suck it up, and get through nus.



3. i must EXCERSISE. cardio 3x a week. minimum 2km jog each time. add to this a good breakfast, and a lighter, earlier dinner. increase the greens, and limit the chocolate. and then, i must sleep. aim for a good 6-7 hours a day at least. wake-up call before 7. enough of the lunch-is-my-breakfast routine.



4. i should write more. whether it be blogs, essays, potential-forum-letters-that-i-never-get-down-to, or random bits of good lyrics i stumble upon. i must cultivate the habit of translating thoughts into words as and when i can. otherwise, all the muddled up ideas that crop up during intense hours of day-dreaming will just stay as such, and i will never know if i am actually capable of penning down anything substantial.



5. i must experience more. talk to more people, engage in more activities, travel more! (nothing extensive, just out of clementi and woodlands more often!) give myself more reason to feel distracted, and less to mope around grumpily.



the resolutions seem sound enough to me.

let's see how strong the resolve stands.
