Apathetic Echidna Posted December 24, 2017 Author Share Posted December 24, 2017 For my New Years resolution I will...... come out to at least 2 more of my friends (because I was planning to do it about 2 weeks ago but didn't). finally give the birthday present that has been sitting at home to the friend I started it for 3 years ago. do something to celebrate aromantic day/week! Hopefully with friends! along with the usual: drink less, eat healthier, get a better job blah blah buy a Mushi-shi box set blah blah maybe get a new piercing blah blah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phobe Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Travel! I've never been out of the country and have only just barely been out of the province. Finally got my passport, so I'm gonna make myself venture forth at least once in 2018. Reconnect with friends in Toronto and get more involved in my hobbies. Take English riding lessons. Get a snake.

Skittles87 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 1) Get a new job. Hopefully a less stressful one. Ideally something in a museum. 2) Go to a spa (never had a spa day before). 3) Make more of an effort to make friends (I make this resolution every year). 4) Make a list of all the films I've been meaning to watch, and watch all of them.

This list is actually very similar to mine! As well as these, this year I want to write more letters, and do more things that make me happy.

That should be fun! would that possibly expand to future 3-day eventing? < I watch that but never did it. I never got past jumping, I hate jumping 12 hours ago, Skittles87 said: 1) Get a new job.

I always wanted access to the museum vaults, but they only really let researchers in there 18 hours ago, Zorcodtoa said: if I can make promises I'd do them anytime of the year. for the sake of a topic I labelled this New Years Resolutions when in fact I have been doing some of these things already, other things are just a vague notion of 'maybe this year'. New Years actually means nothing to me. Christmas day is the start and end of the year for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippiecat Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I don't make proper New Year's resolutions, but some of my goals definitely are: - getting into uni - exercising more - basically continuing with all my healthy habits that I've managed to create although coming out to more people could be a good resolution as well. i'l have to think about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to get back into riding, but I need a car first (very limited public transportation in the Yukon), and also limited funds... - Hike at least one long-distance trail (over 100km) - Save many cash monies - Less impulse spending on food - Practice yoga 3x week - Write blog posts for last year's trails - Volunteer somewhere doing something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skittles87 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I've also decided to go caffeine-free, at least for January (like Dry January or Veganuary). It's noon on the 1st January and I'm already struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmbo Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I don't really do new years resolutions, mostly because I make resolutions all the time so new year would be nothing special. Right now they are: -Write everyday -Go running more -Spend less time on duties, like cooking or fixing my apartment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
time-is-ticking Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Drink more water Work on not being scared of answering and making phone calls Ask for help more often, instead of always struggling with things alone Be outside more, when I have time (go for walks, run) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to hear how things work out. I;ve been thinking about getting an answering machine so that I can screen my calls and tell all my friends to call the landline if they want a chat~ then maybe I will actually answer my phones more often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
