New Year's Resolutions Recap, and this year's misguided attempt to improve myself. [30 Dec 2009|07:29pm]

Last year I planned to:
+ Move out of my house, moving to and going to school in Bloomington, IN
This didn't happen. Instead, I changed my course of study to Surgical Technician and stuck around valpo. This turned out to be a much more stable plan, though it's not very adventurous until I'm in the job market.
+ Make at least one entire graphic novel for public release.
I don't know why this didn't happen. I managed to develop a plot line with some fairly dynamic characters, but didn't storyboard it. Maybe I'll do that this year.
+ Become the new face of linux.
This sort of happened every time there was a Mac vs. PC debate. I don't run any windows or mac computers, so I was pretty much the only linux guy in Valparaiso. I am what linux looks like in NWI.
+ Excel at all and any studies/activities.
I feel like I could have done better. I really just kind of let myself go this year, and that isn't at all excellent.
+ Begin writing a short book for public release.
I did this during NaNoWriMo. :D Chock that one up to a win.
+ Show up on youtube.
I tried video editing in linux, and it was one of the worst experiences of my life (Why do I have to use the command line interface to put subtitles in a video?). Maybe if VLC Video Editor works nicely I'll have something on there next year.
+ Be more active in general.
Oh fuck no. I failed hard. No physical activity at all this year.
+ Find cure for death.
I found many ways to delay death, but no cure for it yet. I learned about Darwinian Gastronomy, and I plan on using that knowledge to be a healthier person.
+ Form a cult
I changed my mind. I don't want to form a cult so much as I want to form a tribe. Assuming that the golden third is actually a third of the population, I would do well to find them and associate myself with them.

This year was at best mediocre as far as accomplishments are concerned. I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that I spent a lot of time leisurely and then stressing about deadlines instead of just getting shit done. I can definitely improve upon my methods in 2010.


This year I plan to:
+Get into the Surg Tech program near the top of the list.
+Practice Archery to the extent that I could be competitive.
+Run at least three miles a week, regardless of whether or not I want to (or at the very least, an hour of DDR a week).
+Get rid of lots of really cool shit that is cluttering my space, and consequentially, my life.
+Get some sort of electronic planner that alerts me that I'm supposed to be doing things (maybe a smartphone?).
+Make things specifically with the purpose of selling them.
+Study smarter.
+Eat better.
+Work on some sort of film.
