Resolutions, hopes, dreams for '08

Cadaverous Pallor · 12-30-2007, 11:49 AM

So we recapped '07, but what do we resolve for '08?

I resolve to continue to make time for artistic endeavors.

I resolve to get myself published somehow, even if it doesn't make me money.

I resolve to be better about contacting family and far flung friends. (do I say that every year?)

I resolve to go to Scotland to visit a friend. Yay, an excuse to visit Scotland!

I resolve to train Thurston to go potty outside.

I don't do resolutions, but I'm happy to post intentions.

I intend to:

- go to Tokyo (I've got the tickets - woo hoo!)
- start the podcast I've been meaning to start for a couple of years now
- keep getting fun contract gigs that pay me to write
- keep writing stuff I'm not getting paid for
- vote

I intend not to:
- put too much hope in previously mentioned vote

I made a resolution to not make resolutions. So far it's the only one I've kept.

I will try to not accrue new debt.
I hope to travel to NY and back to SF

To clean the entire house before April (organize etc)
To go to Bon Jovi 4 shows tickets already purchased

That's it since i really don't make New Years resolutions

I am firmly in the no resolutions group, though:

I intend to get a job that I enjoy, regardless the pay. If I enjoy it enough, it will eventually come with its reward.

I intend to appreciate the skill set I was blessed with and have worked so hard to maintain. These are vital skills, even if it's not apparent on the surface.

I intend to complete a portfolio with writing samples by mid-February.

I intend to learn to be a better snowboarder.

I intend to not break any of my boyfriend's bones.

I intend to go scuba diving this year in Florida.

I intend to get a kitten.

I intend to begin searching for a house this summer.

My Resolutions and Intentions for 2008
By Mark, age 37

- To be more social
- To be more swanky
- To dine a nice places
- To swear off McDonalds totally. (Yeah, had it only maybe a dozen times this year, but I like Egg McMuffins.)
- To return to Walt Disney World
- To write more
- To draw more
- To find work
- To find a home
- To read more
- To see Chicago as many times as I can.

- To camp more
- To buy needle and thread so once I find my soul, I can put it back.
- and as always, continue to do as I do every night - try to take over the world...

I'm also a no-resolution person, simply because I feel we should always be striving for better things for ourselves.

However, my current priority is:

To surround myself with what matters the most - good friends, good vibes, good health, and good work.
