ThreeFour hours has passed since 2008 arrived and I already have a problem. I cannot sleep! But all is good, since I might as well try to make a decent blog entry worthy of being the first blog entry I’ll make for the year. My brain is half asleep (or is it half-dead?) right now, so things might not make sense. But really, when did I ever make sense?
So, for the first ever list I’m going to ever make for this year, I decided it shouldn’t be resolutions. Instead it should be a list of things I ought to try/do this year. Without further adieu, the 2008 List (applause, yay):
- Get more sleep. 8 hours or more a day! Bags under your eyes never made anyone look good
(Although, as you can see, I already am not doing this one. Bad Eina.) - Actually try at school. Ever since moving here, I’ve stopped trying to achieve things in the academic area of my life. 2008 will be different. I will get in to the University of Toronto!
- Learn how to cook. I won’t survive without food, that I’m pretty sure of.
- Help my mother more around the house.
- Actually get A’s this term and for the next term too.
- Practice Math and Chemistry. I know how to do them! I just forget how to do them after a few days. Practice, practice!
- Make a schedule and actually stick with it!
- Save moneys. Need moneys for school.
- Become more honest.
- Listen to the sermons every time I go to church.
- Become healthier (a.k.a. LOSE WEIGHT) and do some running and whatever. (Note to self: Drag friends to gym.)
- To become less of an anti-social.
- Stop dodging Cupid’s arrows?
- Learn how to write proper blog entries.
- Actually learn PHP/MySQL.
Let’s stop at 15, shall we? I like making lists of things I should do, but I also like not following them. It’s a bit hypocritical of me, but whatever, I will follow this one. Feel free to give me a whacking in the head if you catch me not following it! Also, Project 365 is a bit interesting. Anyone giving this a try this year?

On QI it said that scientists actually recommend 4-7 hours sleep. I dunno though, any excuse to sleep, ey?
How about trying the blog every day for a month thing? Link: http://blogathon.ecstasymb.org
Make sure you blog to let us know how you’re getting on! ^^

Happy New Year =)
Posted 01 Jan 2008 at 11:06 am ¶I like your list, it contains a good amount of things…but I would never try creating my own list of goals or things to do because I know that I would never even finish one goal. I also have heard that it is actually much more helpful to get 6-7 hours of sleep rather then the told 8 hours of sleep. Number 3 is especially important! I am always home alone when there is no food in the fridge…which forces me to end up eating crackers and milk for dinner. Maybe I should learn how to cook then…

And your blog entries seem already pretty proper to me =P
Happy New Year, Eina ^^
Posted 01 Jan 2008 at 3:35 pm ¶Save monies!!! Save monies!!
We all need em, also with sleep. Gosh, sleep is a luxury we always fail to implement because of technology eh?
Posted 01 Jan 2008 at 7:56 pm ¶I don’t know how to cook either. Since my mom doesn’t cook, I have to eat microwavable food every night of the week. It’s not very healthy though. :/
Posted 02 Jan 2008 at 11:13 am ¶Happy New Year! Those are some pretty great resolutions. I haven’t really thought of any myself. Except that I must get into shape, but really, who doesn’t plan that one at New Year?
Posted 02 Jan 2008 at 1:46 pm ¶That’s a great list! Good luck with getting into the U of Toronto!
I’d like to become less reserved.
Posted 02 Jan 2008 at 4:53 pm ¶Happy New Year (even though it’s a bit late) and good luck with keeping your resolutions! #1-7 are things I should probably do, but I didn’t want to make my list too long because last year I made a huge list of resolutions and ended up keeping maybe 1 of them (heh).
Project 365 does sound interesting, but I don’t know if I could do it. It’s probably not for lazy people like me.
Posted 02 Jan 2008 at 9:39 pm ¶Ahh, Cupid’s arrows. I’ve tried to dodge them all my life
but it usually fails. Good luck with your goals =) and have a happy new year 
Posted 02 Jan 2008 at 11:35 pm ¶Your goals seem practical and achievable, I wish you the best in keeping them for 2008. ^_^ It’s more difficult I find to keep the sermons than to just only listening to them… ^_^
Posted 03 Jan 2008 at 12:31 pm ¶Have a happy new year!
