Get back into going to the gym....maybe I'll hold off on that though because everybody else is making the exact same resolution and it'll be stupid busy for the first month or so.
I was doing really well last year but just didn't really bother this semester...


That and start eating decently...too many days where I'm too lazy to cook so I order pizza.

Swimming is easy on the joints. You also join some aqua size classes at your local pool.

- keep losing weight. Of course the holiday season has put a bit of a damper on this one for a while.

- write so other people can actually read what I'm writing. Of course this has been a resolution for years now and has never actually happened. But we'll see!

- stop procrastinating!

1) Fewer fistfights, no gunplay.

2) Fewer arrests, no convictions.

3) Diversify from loansharking into other lines of business.


... or maybe I'll just lose some weight.

I want to be able to run 42km at the end of this year. If not by the end of 2008, the end of 2009 for sure.

I don't think you can give yourself an out already when the year hasn't even begun...

I don't usually make resolutions, but considering the junk I've gone through this past year I could've ended up a heck of alot worse than I did. So this year, I'm gonna pay it forward. At least once. Somehow.

I've had career goals for the past 4-5 years, and I haven't done a thing about them. Been stuck in the same brutal, dead end job for the past 4 years after graduating from college. Time for a change. I am striving to make this a good year for me. I bought a new condo that I am moving into in the summer, and I want to seriously pursue the career of my dreams. I won't be happy in life until that happens.

Good luck to you all in 2008!

The weight thing like every year... I need to find a cheap winter activity to help facilitate that. I'm already on a schedule for salary, so not much to resolve there. And to find a girlfriend It's been a while since I've found someone I was interested in, so I will try harder this year.

1. Eat well (less frozen food, I'm not too bad about cooking but my roommates are so I have to force them to cook nice meals like I do)
2. Ski far more than I can afford
3. Climb more often than I did last semester
4. Gym occasionally if I can't make it to the slopes or climbing wall

The wife and I are going to try to lose weight together this year. We could both stand to lose about 50 lbs. (typical fat Americans, lol!)

Having two kids in two years will really alter your schedule/lifestyle...

I'm contemplating joining the instructional hockey league this year as well. Should be interesting since I haven't laced up a pair of skates in about 15 years!

how many miles is that? is that equivalent to running a marathon (26.2 miles)? Wow, you're amazing if you can do that.

My resolution is just to be happy - to stop dwelling on things of the past and to just be happy. Life is too short to be sad/mad/upset/stressed.
