Resolute

Okay I guess I'll just get them out before I forget about them.

HAI. DIS BE RESOLUTIONS.

1. Rage less. Self-explanatory. 2010 was the Year of FFFFFFFFUUUUUUU. I can't count the amount of times I've had to do that. There will always be things that make me angry but it's my job to take them in stride and carry on.
2. Do more work within my group. All along I'd been carried by my teammates and they've also told me to start leading (at the risk of them failing). I shall try.
3. Remember stuff. The useful stuff. See, I have no problems with remembering stuff except I have this very bad habit of overlooking something important pretty much all the time, leading to failure. It's like something is always eluding me, that last jigsaw piece is always missing and by the time I've found it, it doesn't matter any longer. That is highly frustrating. To aid myself in this I've started using notes on my phone. I shall utilize notes more often because I've found them to actually work...so yeah. 
4. Stick to one. Another bad habit. Since I've already given up on 2 out of 3, this shouldn't be too hard...unless someone else comes in. Which seems to be happening. Choices will have to be made and they can't be the same ones I made last year because that ended up in failure.
5. Increase my empathy levels. Okay I'm not a very empathetic person for some reason; sometimes I can't comprehend a person's problems because I've had no experience with it myself. I try hard but it just doesn't turn out well, so I should start actually putting myself in others' shoes rather than thinking only from my perspective. I did that before and...again, that failed. It seems I really failed a lot last year. In my own opinion, of course.
6. Improve my singing. I can't sing as well as I'd like. The key is to practice...which comes to my next resolution: 
7. Practice moar. This applies to anything that I need to get better at. Guitar, singing, studies...the list goes on. I've never been one to practice. My best subject in secondary school was the one that I never had to practice for. Of course practice becomes easier when you actually enjoy what you're doing. But if I have to practice for something I don't particularly enjoy, I'll have to find a way to enjoy it more. That's all I can do, really.
8. Trust my friends. Self-explanatory. I don't trust my friends with a lot of things. It's hard for me to open up. I think some alcohol will help with that though XD
9. Be less jealous. Or better yet, don't bother getting jealous at all. My green eyes came up a hell lot last year and I didn't think it was necessary, yet I couldn't help myself.
10. Care more. This probably ties in with the fifth one. It's just my opinion but I don't think I care about others enough. Someone told me I put myself above others.
11. Get better clothes. My clothes are pretty tacky. I don't really enjoy wearing them and it shows. Years of never paying much attention to my appearace has reared its ugly head. Now that I'm paying a LITTLE BIT of attention, I feel like I really don't dress well for a guy my age. I'll need some help, but for the most part I have to pick my clothes properly.
12. Be less of a cheapskate. I'm a huge cheapskate. I always prefer to get cheaper items but they are never good enough. Quality is needed.
13. Learn what to say and what not to say. I've always prided myself somewhat for having no tact whatsoever when I don't require it, but now I think I should exercise some tact because I realise I can really hurt people easily merely by saying some words that are better not said. This will only come with experience though.
14. Get fit. I'm horrendously unfit right now because all I do is eat unhealthy food, sleep and sit at the computer all day. As a result I sometimes pant when climbing overhead bridges <_< So I shall go jogging on Sunday mornings if I remember to lol.

I think that's about all I can remember. I should read this post often so that I remember all this stuff. It's not easy to remember for me at all.

Happy 2011 :)
