So what are all your New years resolutions? That you will probably only stick too for about 3 days. :D

I'm going for a Cliché one, Join the local Gym and get fit, but only once I've passed my driving test.

My resolution: care more about people who give a shit about me, and care less about the people who don't :p.

On Monday I'm also starting 'healthy living' lol, exercise every weekday (not gym because I'm trying to be realistic and know I won't go) and snacks only at the weekend. I'm not calling this a resolution though because its something I should do for my health, compared to when I started uni, I'm 3 stone heavier... so I've put on like a stone a year =\.

Hahaha nice resolution. I think I should add that to my list.

I do already eat a lot less than what I use too. I ate no snacky food over the summer holidays and lost 8 pounds, then when I went back to uni I put it all back on because I caved into temptation. :lol: I'm cutting it all out and eating them in moderation from now on. I want to join a gym, but not on my own so I'm trying to persuade my friends to join with me. If I can drive there then I would probably go, if I cant then I would probably think I cba. But my only issue with it is that I will feel to intimidated and out of place with all the super muscley steroid fueled men and woman who basically live there.

Oh God not me constantly eating chocolate, sweets, etc even if I'm not particularly hungry. I'm on some tablets that increase your appetite and its mainly since I started on them that I've put weight on, but until I'm taken off them (which I'm going to try to be cuz they're thinning my hair too), I'm gunna have to try countering it. Plus I'll still have the 3 stone left behind that I need to get rid of :( Depresses me really cuz I doubt I'll manage it for summer time but I guess anything's better than now :p I feel like a blob even though to look at I don't look fat or overweight even :lol:

I know what you saying about gym that's why I know I'll never go. Seeing hot guys out - good, competing with hot guys working out - not good :lol:

I think you need to be taken of those tablets, or given an alternative. They don't seem to be doing you much good if your hair is thinning and you're gaining weight. I'm not much a sweets person anyway, i prefer more savory foods like sausage rolls which are just as bad, if not worse. That's why I think it's easy for me to just cut it out (although with massive stash of chocolates and sweets from Christmas it is hard to not just dive in and eat it all.) I'm one of those people who gain like a tonne of weight when I just look at food - whereas my brother eats wheelbarrows full and doesn't gain a pound. So jealous.

That's why i want to get a friend to come with me, bit of moral support and we can look like idiots together. :lol: If I do ever join i think I would probably just go on the treadmills or something to help burn the excess weight.

I aim at gaining weight. I started to work out a little a few months ago and I'll just continue to do so. I don't do it a lot, but jumping into a hardcore gym routine won't achieve anything in the long term. I don't go to the gym anyway, I prefer to do it at home - this way I can avoid all those unpleasant macho guys.

I try to be rational and don't have real resolutions. Hyper-enthusiastic new years resolutions usually fail after the enthusiasm fades mid-January. It's better to change things in small steps. I have some, um, plans for this year, things I'd like to achieve. Mundane stuff related to work and uni, all within my reach, I believe, and I'll be glad with any success I make.
And then there's also my crush, that's a though one...

Well, I feel like I will repeat what others already said but anyway:

1. Going back to the gym and get my six pack back :cool:
2. Finally finish my studies
3. Keep my new job
4. To take care more of my friends. Sometimes I don't talk to some of them for weeks, I feel like I've lost some of them because of that.

My goals for this year

1) Travel at least once.
2) Gain enough muscle mass. I got leaner the past few months, time to get at least some mass on me.
3) Get my grad school plans properly sorted out.
4) Do well enough at work; leave a good impression.
5) Continue writing

Represent Slovakia on the ESC stage and take the contest to Bratislava... Yeah, might be difficult.

Back in the real world I generally want to do more reading; there's not really anything else I want to achieve other than that and touch up on my literary skills.

I don't make resolutions and realistically 2014 changing to 2015 won't really motivate me to do something special anyway...but there are some things I want to do this year:


- Figure what to do in university...I'm graduating in June and haven't applied yet :( Thought about becoming a teacher but everyone has discouraged me from pursuing that path. I will likely take an extra year in high school (after graduation, we have the ability to come back for extra classes, a 'victory lap') and apply at the end of this year.

- Get a job, save up for uni, pay for a trip with my friends this summer, have some spending money, etc.

- Try and make more friends, since all of my close friends are leaving for university this fall and not coming back.

- Get my license, so I'll be more independent.
