Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Resolutions for 2009

I thought we should share our resolutions for the coming year so we can make fun of each other should we fail to live up to them.

Just a minute ago I was thinking it would be cool to write a series of books, but a series consisting of only one and a half books. I'm calling it a hemi-trilogy. This way I can write a "series" without putting in so much work, as I'll only have to come up with one idea that sustains a whole novel, and the other just needs half an idea, right? And I'll definitely be making the half-novel the second part of the hemi-trilogy. I'm thinking that people, knowing it's only a half-novel, will already have lowered expectations for the outcome, so if the ending is only decent people will still be impressed.

My other resolution is to go on a date.

I want to walk.... make fun of me now!!

*runs away walking*

My resolution is combined with the fact that I have 1 semester left at college.

The following things I would love to do:

1) Have a consistent blogging habit (lots of my proudest thoughts are a result of writing)
2) Be productive...mostly in getting some programming projects done that I've been thinking about for a while.
3) Not waste countless hours like I have a habit of doing.

Why walk? It's in your avatar.

Touché

This year I'm going to get back to making time for travelling to interesting events again. Current candidates :

... and maybe get a decent stand for my projector, rather than the current "cooler + cardboard box" stack

Man, I want to go to Spam Jam.
