First of all..
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE
Well it is currently 2:55am 4th January 2008
And for the past 3 hours or so I have been thinking about my life,
And I have decided I'm in need of a change this year...
A show of hands,
Who has said these words before,
With a show of hearts on the floor,
Who has ever meant them more,
Well I'll swallow my pride if you'll stay for the years...
Mayday Parade - Just Say You're Not Into It
First 'major' change:
EDIT:
Lip piercing has been put back in due to somebody complaining *Shifty eyes*
I am not naive in thinking all of my following New Year's Resolutions,
Will be followed through completely to the letter,
But I am going to try as best I can:
1. Develop some form of motivation:
Now this may sound stupid to most people,
But for those who know me, they know I'm a chronic procrastinator,
To the point where it almost ruined my whole schooling career,
I have to learn to keep on track and follow through with the things I set out to do.
2. Change my eating habits and exercise routine:
Although I'm overall happy with who I am,
I know I'm not as healthly nor as active as I could be,
[Even though I have a Gym Membership I haven't been in months]
My goal is to start attending the Gym regularly 3-4 days a week,
Perform Parkour on a routine basis [Even though I've lost Ben for a year]
And eating properly which means no more fast food or lollies and more water.
3. Become more sociable:
This one entails a few things on my part..
I know I'm not the easiest person to get along with,
Whether it be to the fact that I'm shy around people I don't know well,
Or that I'm overtly outspoken around those I'm comfortable around,
I'm going to try to attend more parties and such to overcome my 'shyness'
And try to tone down my manner of speech around those I know [This one will be hard]
Also to hang out with Sary AKA *chnae
4. Job, Car and School:
Shortly I need to finish writing my resume so I can apply for a full time job,
Hopefully in a place that would suit me such as a video game or record store...
I need to apply for a birth certificate so I can try to get my Learner's driver license,
And I need to finish filling in the forms so I can redo a HSC subject [PDHPE] this year.
All these are imperitive and I cannot fail in doing any of these.
5. Learn guitar and possily singing:
I am currently in possession of 2 guitars:
An Acoustic Yamaha F-310 6 String Guitar
And an '87 Reissue Fender Stratocaster
And I sadly admit that I can barely play either
[Even though they cost around $1800 together]
My goal by the end of the year is to be able to play atleast 10 songs on guitar,
Preferably with tuition, but probably by my own..
6. Help out more:
I do a little as I can get away with around the house,
I don't do any chores, the only thing I do is take out the trash once a week,
I'm going to try to help out more around the house to help Mum out a little
I'm not sure of anyone, anyone,
But I've got plans,
I'm not asking for everything,
But sure I could use a hand
Dashboard Confessional - Anyone Anyone
Well these are my Resolutions,
I'll post updates on how they're going from time to time,
And if I think of anymore =]
I'll be the grapes fermented,
Bottled and served with the table set,
In my finest suit, like a perfect gentleman,
I'll be the fire escape,
That's bolted to the ancient brick,
Where you will sit and contemplate your day,
I'll be the waterwings,
That save you if you start drowning,
In an open tab when your judgement's on the brink,
I'll be the phonograph,
That plays your favorite albums back,
As you're lying there, drifting off to sleep,
I'll be the platform shoes,
And undo what heredity's done to you,
You won't have to strain to look into my eyes,
I'll be your winter coat,
Buttoned and zipped straight to the throat,
With the collar up so you won't catch cold.

That is it for now,
