Get a job; preferably a paying one somehow related to my field.  And if all else fails, have fun and enjoy myself.

I never make New Years resolutions.  If I'm going to make a change in my life I do it because it's the right choice at that time, not because it's a the first day of January.

With that in my mind I'm continuing to work with my doctors to improve my mental health.  This includes changing my diet and activity which should improve my weight.  :)

so apparently, I need to pay attention and actually READ these boards before posting a thread thats already about the topic i was looking for :P

i need to stop being lame. :D

I'm surprised no one put up a resolutions thread. So what the heck.

The usual ones usually apply-

Quit Smoking
Drink less (unless social of course)
Save Money
Learn something new everyday
Make new friends
Only buy video games when I beat a video game (this one was tough for me last year)
Be more confident
Be Decisive
Be less pervy (is this even possible? )
Be more funny
Go to more Cons besides Fanime (AX, Sakura, SD Comic-Con, WonderCon, Ani-Jam,) etc...
Take more pictures (first I'd prolly need a better Camera)
Reconnect with REALLY old friends

and the list goes on...


How about everyone else?
or did some of you already break your resolutions...

Get my own materials and machines so I can tattoo and travel about to get more experience.

=/ I'm sorry to hear that man.

I actually have a few New Years Resolutions:
- Continue getting "A"s in my college classes.
- Get a job.
- Build a new computer.
- Find a place to live closer to the college once I turn 18.
- Finish all my cosplays early. (Yes I'm so nerdy that is a resolution)
- Generally try to be a better person.

-Get a Job
-make Healthier decissions (such as a reasonable bed time lol)
-Get to the park more often (Once the grass isn't soggy from rain)
-Have Cosplay ready for Fanime
-Possibly go to more conventions then just Fanime
-Do more of the impersonal chores around the house. (So we can fire the maids as they slack when your not there anyways.)

Which version of Chun Li are you Cosplaying as?

Depending on how many Chun Li fanboys out there, you might either add learn martial arts or kicking butt to that list. :D

Ironically I should learn how to cook as well, at some point you can only deal with so many microwave meals in one life :P

What kind of job are you looking for? Even tho I'm out of the HR Gig, I still know plenty of Contacts if your looking for Contract or Temping in Office environments!

As for reasonable bed time, whats 'reasonable' to you? That or I need to find a cure for Insomnia :P

Parks are nice, especially with the awesome weather we're having lately.

And dont forget, Cons like Anime on Display, WonderCon and the SF Cherry Blossom Festival are coming up.

So making these new years resolutions should be almost simple.

@Jerry
Really any job I can get xD I've applied for a few near my house so far. Just waiting for a reply now.

lol, well I'd say midnight is a good time to start going to bed. I've been venturing too far into the AM recently D:

I know right? The grass is just too soggy right now, I want to go play softball/baseball with my friends. Family too if their up to it. More the merrier.

Right! I've gone to the Mall in Japan Town plenty of time up there in San Francisco, I love looking at the Cosplay board they display outside the DVD store. When is it?

3rd Strike version. 'Classic' version as opposed to her alpha version.
Not worried about fanboys. If having my boyfriend with me doesnt scare em away then telling them off myself will   :D
ick microwave meals. I realized that they're not worth the money sometimes. Cept for Cup-o-Noodle. I can never go wrong with that.
