I'm starting a bit early to give you all time to think of a good one(or ones). I'll go first: Next year, fake flippin' tree! This year's was crooked like scoliosis, dried up in about 20 minutes & left the majority of it's needles on the floor. Who's next?

Lose weight. Try to be a better boyfriend. Practice more (in anticipation of upcoming live shows ). You know, the usual.

The first time I heard the European fighter's weights announced I SWORE they were selling large quantities of drugs.

to lose 15 pounds.....(well, at least 10, I'm 192)

to ride a 35 mile bicycle trail near here...(I started riding a couple of months ago)

to not procrastinate so much...(but I've got a few more days to think about that one)

to do something nice for my parents more often (they have done far more for me than I have done for them)

to paint a room with glow-in-the-dark paint (not in this house; I will be moving in a couple of months, and it's just something I always wanted to do in the next one)

to start flying again ( I have a private pilot's license, but haven't flown since December 3, 2003)

To basically have the best year so far of my life. Funny, but I haven't even bothered to make New Year's resolutions for the past few years, but now, anything is possible and I am happy again. The divorce was hard to live through, but the oppotunity to have a new life is priceless.

No doubt.

One time, while checking to see which fighter had a reach advantage, I was greeted with: 25.4 CM! I thought, "What the crap does a C Major have to do with reach advantage?!?!"

I also think I'll start exercising less restrain when posting. Lately, it seems that dropping a polite hint that someone might be talking out of their ass isn't working and often ecourages more running of the mouth. I've got a few days, but I'm contemplating just opening my posts with both barrels. Life is too short to let stupidity run rampant.

Is it *really* that bad guys? never really given it that much thought round here, trying to convert from metric to imperial.

the metric system certainly makes maths and physics lessons a lot easier. if it really means that much to you though then I'll make sure I use it as little as possible

As for resolutions... I'll try not to be such a douche to my friends. I'll try not to drink so much, and I'll try and keep my band on track. I'll try and keep some form of physical fitness regime going (but that one comes and goes, I'll spend 2 months sticking to it, 1 month out, 2 months sticking to it... )

I also wanna pass my driving test.

but at the end of the day, 2008 is just going to be more of the same. we all know that whenever we make a resolution.

My resolutions are to work even harder at uni, fight in a muay thai competition in the summer or sometime around then and to spend less.

Get down to 190, the weight I graduated highschool, im 198 now. Mix more. I practice bass and guitar enough but at the expense of mix time. Do at least 2 full albums for bands this year.

I'm going to try and swear less, and become better at bass, including learning how to tap.
