New Years Resolutions

Engine · 01-01-2014, 12:23 AM

Happy Gregorian New Year!

Here are my 2014 intentions:

To figure out:
-how to grow some badass yet socially acceptable mutton chops

-how to hone my avarice so that it makes me money while also benefitting others (especially animals)

To do:
-attend more punk shows

-read everything that Alan Moore has ever written

To buy:
-a good stereo system including a high quality turntable

-property within walking distance of the Pacific Ocean

I'll promise to read more books. When I was younger I use to read something like one book in a week or so. music took that place in my life which belonged to those books. But anyway, now I,and probably everyone here, have noticed that I have too much time that I just waste it with nothing to do.

Then I'll promise to finish my songs properly. It is very annoying when you have something like 100 demos and half-finished ideas.

Then, while guitar is my main instrument, and I'm not good at playing it by any means, I'll promise to develop my drumming so I can record it. Then it would be nice to learn to play bass, but I guess I don't have enough money to buy it and it is a pity...

Then I promise to concentrate on school. Next year is gonna be very important.

And also, as always, I hope that I'll become a more friendly person and all.

I'm going to stop smoking weed untill I find a new job, and use the excess money to get some much needed dental work done. I usually don't make resolutions, but since the timing is right I figure calling what I need to do anyway a resolution might make it easier to keep on track.

Most resolutions fail especially mines so I am just going to take the new year each day at a time with common theme of improving.

The resolution this year is to really build up the savings account. Going to go on a coupon rampage.

finally harness my ability to stare into the souls of others and cut them down (to be used on the job).

Use internet less. Use brain less. Do more psychedelics. Live in moment more.

Crikey, Taxman! -25º is extremely cold! It's not bad for you people not to have snow: Christmas Eve was absolutely hot in here -nearly 40º at 10pm- and on top of that, I was in charge of the bbq. I love Christmas nights to be warm, or even hot. Can't whinge at all; I had a supreme time gobbling down delicious food and ice cream afterwards.
