I don't know about your country, but in most countries I know, people have the tradition of proposing goals, objectives or aims that you could go after in this new year. For example, finnish your studies, learn something important (to drive, to speak a language....) or change something in your life.
For example, I don't have any particular goals for this year except by keep improving my knowledge, what about you guys, do you have a special issue for this year?

no not really

hmmm....

1. drink more less
2. find a suitable midget

Same goals as last year

1. Think of some goals to accomplish.

So far, I have not completed this goal.

@Pyro: why you want a midget?

Who wouldn't!

u know who a lot of people are scared of clowns? well im scared of midgets. they freak me out man. also people with missing limbs freak me out as well. nothing against them, its just my phobia

this topic is going VERY off topic...! I usually have 5 "goals" each year, if i meet 3 of them i'm happy. For 2008 it's these:

1. Get anna through her 2nd year of life in one piece!
2. Pay off the business debts and get off housing benefit completely
3. Get to Download Festival (i know, i know but i like the cheesy music! haha plus i don't know if i'll go to one if i don't go this year )
4. Make new friends and help some friends out of their problems
5. Meet a DECENT guy with a good taste in music, long hair and a car who likes me back! haha

I reckon 1,3 and 4 are probably most likely with 2 and 5 staying well out of reach for the minute! lol

I don't really make any grand resolutions at the start of the year, don't think I ever had done, I find that throughout the year I make smaller more achievable targets which is good enough for me.
For starters at the moment I need to get into the rhythm of doing college work in the evening and stop procrastinating to the point I don't do my work thus end up doing it last minute.

I wouldn't call it New Years resolutions, but I have to go to Wacken this year. Other than that it must be something like doing good on my exams and becoming better at my job...pretty boring stuff but should be able to fulfil them

1. Don't trust anyone
2. Leave this shithole

1. Leave MS and get a life (yeah, right)
2. Start a serious relationship with this girl...
3. Move to my own place after graduation

The first will never happen, the third is nearly impossible but the second is very possible.

1.pass the exams with good marks
2.a decent girl
3.have more fun
4.get into even better physical shape

my resolutions never get achieved, so im not making them anymore

two years ago i set a goal to quit smoking, and was a non-smoker for well over a year.

unfortunately i get to repeat that goal for 2008 and quit again. i guess stress will do that to you?

Since i was 14 i only have a goal every year, create the T-Virus and with it, destroy mankind

Not drink for at least four months. Going good so far. Granted, it's only been a week.

hey man, the first week is the toughest. keep going bro

Waken Open Air! Iron Maiden & Avantasia are a MUST! :-)

I want to be more pure as a person and to meditate more often.

See how long i can go without ejaculating. It's been since the 17th Dec.

- Get my dregree finally.
- Expressing my feelings better. I have been accused too often of being to inexpressive.

i must study for univercity's entrance tests which is in following summer. there are more than 100.000 students who give that test every year (in mathematics) and i should at least place myself in first 14.000 ... this is truely hard. i hope for you that never fall in this deep shit

I stopped making goals for the new year a long time ago. As practice shows I've never accomplished any.

Get out more. But I've been out more than in this year so far. So thats ok.

Work harder. I'm too lazy and it needs to stop really.

Are you serious man? It would be physically impossible for me. Ehm... the hose would probably pump out the water by itself after a couple of days...

My balls were starting to hurt so i had to lower the pressure, if you get what I mean.

1. Survive
2. Survive
3. Survive

I just thought i'd see what i'd written as my goals for 2008 and see how close i was to acheiving them out of curiosity! haha

1. obviously not complete yet
2. i will have half paid off by June!
3. my friend's mum bought the tickets a few days ago in the pre-sale!
4. still making new friends. probably causing more problems than i'm solving! haha
5. don't even GO there hahaha

This thread should be back to the top lol
