"New Year's Day is Every Man's Birthday"
"I do think New Year's resolutions can't technically be expected to begin on New Year's Day, don't you? Since, because it's an extension of New Year's Eve, smokers are already on a smoking roll and cannot be expected to stop abruptly on the stroke of midnight with so much nicotine in the system. Also dieting on New Year's Day isn't a good idea as you can't eat rationally but really need to be free to consume whatever is necessary, moment by moment, in order to ease your hangover. I think it would be much more sensible if resolutions began generally on January the second" - Helen Fielding
For days, I've been thinking of what my New Year's Resolution for this year will be...or if I'm even going to make some. Well...Here's a list of some things that I would like to do/change/improve for this year:
Resolution # . . .
1.
Develop a Passion Outside School
- I know school's been hard, and adding extra activities on top of that might make it more difficult for me...but I know it's going to be for my own advantage.
2.
Get a Job
-Yes, I know I'm a little bit late, but I've been bitten by the lazy bug...been extremely lazy lately. Bad bad me. So I've decided to add this to my list, so I know that I have to get it done. Making a resume's not that easy, y'know! First drop-off. . .the library! Don't get me wrong, I know the library may be a boring place, but hey (not to be greedy), they pay good moolah! ;) Plus, I know someone who works there, and he'd be glad to hook me up! =) I'd better be working my butt off, if I want to save for my own. It's best for future references, especially when it's time for me to apply to a university.
3.
Worry-not
-Ah, yes. The typical Diandra--the pro worrier. This definitely has to go. I'd better stop worrying. It's time to be proactive! Yes! Go me!
4.
Miss [In]dependent
-It's been extra hard for me to detach myself from my parents because since birth, I was never separated from them, and I also had to wait 7 years to have a sister to play with. I was alone for 7 years, but I never complained. I never really asked for a baby sister/brother because I was happy that way. All eyes were always on me. I had my parents, my grandma and other close relatives to take care of me. I was certainly never left by myself. Therefore, I was very much dependent on the people around me, for whatever it may be. Now, it's time for me to decide for myself, and work towards being Miss Independent.
5.
Develop better sleeping habits
-Thank God for Christmas break. If it weren't for this 2-week vacation, I'd be looking extra rugged. I really need to get 8 hours of sleep every night. I have to start sleeping early, so that I can wake up earlier. (I hate waking up early in the morning)
6.
Learn new things
-I have bored myself half to death. I've got to learn something new...something interesting. Sports maybe? Tennis? Rock climbing? Attend cooking classes? Anything at all! I've got to stop being a couch potato, and start being productive.
7.
Read, Read, and Read
-I really never liked reading...until maybe 4 years ago. I think the first book that I read which interested me was this self-help book that was given to by my friend. After reading that, I bought Chicken Soup...and it was good ;p Then I started reading other novels such as Tuesday with Morrie by Mitch Albom, Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist (which I haven't finished), Nicholas Sparks' The Notebook, Life of Pi by Yann Martel, Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snoggings by Louise Rennison (this book is hilarious!) , and Like Water for Chocolate by Laura Esquivel (I just finished reading this book a couple of days ago.) On my way to reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad, The Five People You Meet in Heaven and The Devil Wears Prada. Weeeeeee. Don't call me a bookworm!
8.
I'm a Health Buff--not!
-I eat too much..but I don't really have weight problems. I guess I'm "normal". Well, my goal isn't about losing weight anyway...well, I guess part of it is. But, I really need a healthy diet. Maybe go to the gym from time to time, or join the "cardio groove" classes..but, gotta earn $ first!
9.
Academics
-Come 3rd week of January, 1st semester exams will begin. Goodbye Ancient History, Biology, and Accounting. Hello 2nd semester...hello math. =( I need to get focused and do better on my time management..especially for the crucial subjects.
10.
Future
-I have no f-ing clue whatsoever about what I want to do. How sad...they say it's perfectly normal to not know what I want to to do with my life...but but..it's really bugging me. I am desperate for the answer! Please Lord, give me a sign! Please! Don't let me suffer like this! I'm dazed and confused. Careers.....everything I get interested at leads me to Business. I fancy the business world. I can actually imagine myself wearing those executive-looking suits. Weow. Well, time holds all the answers. . .We''ll all have to wait.
"Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." -Oprah Winfrey
