Resolution Check-up

So i made some resolutions and i wanted to see after 56 days of the new year how good am i at sticking to my resolutions

1. Read the Bible more often

– yeah not doing so well here, i started reading this book Wild at Heart, that has some references to the bible that sort of counts, we read bible passages at church and bible study… Yeah need to really start doing this.

2. Take it slow with the next girl I meet and have a god-pleasing relationship and not based-off of lust.

Kicking ass with this one, no lust based relationships. Going from relationship to relationship for a period of 4 years and then taking 9 months off of any serious relationships has really given me some time to concentrate on myself and what i want to do with my life. It sort of sucks being lonely and no one to share life with, but i think i should figure out what i want with life before looking for someone to spend my life with.

3. Make mad cash at Volt

We definately are trying. I feel like the company is becoming more serious and better every day. I think me and liher have learned alot in the past 4 months and really have a great sense of project management and how to create software on the bigger scale. Just need to get the big deal contracts, or a lot of quick easy small ones. Brendan’s getting better at flash. I’m excited to start on a project with the entire team.

4. Work-out 5 times a week and get a six pack by march

Yea march is saturday and i’d say im more defined, and need to work on this lil more.

5. Save up money to pay off my car and to move out of my house

Eh… yeah not working out so well. Need to get bigger contracts for work

6. Spend less money on eating out and eat healthy food all the time.

I feel like i’m not blowing my money anymore, so im doing good on this one. Eating healthy food is so easy. Veggie burgers and chix patties are great and yogurt is delicious. Probably should get rid of the pop and drink water instead

7. Be nicer and more helpful to my family.

eh… another one i feel a lil better with but definately could be improved a lot more.

8. Learn Direct X or OpenGL (im a nerd oh yea!).

Yeah… well i have some free time now that the last project is done, i guess i should try to learn some of this. or maybe read the rest of that software engineering book instead…

9. Be more friendly and a better friend.

Yeah i think im a pretty good friend and im trying to more friendly, so this one is good.

10. Create monthly resolutions to analyze things I should improve on

Yeah its Feb 25… 25 days late oh well

So yeahh… Resolutions are hit and miss. I know what i need improve on.

Resolution #11 – recruit more people for rowing, cuz the team is dieing and im not really sure why. Either kids at CSU are getting fat and lazy, or just want to party, get drunk, and waste their life away… or we just aren’t recruiting hard enough.

Resolution #12 – Teach brendan REAL LOGIC .

Got anything to say? Go ahead and leave a comment!
