(Chinese) New Years Resolutions

Ok, so I’ve gone and really put my foot in my mouth with the wife. It can’t get any worse so I’ll make it public, and should I fail, open myself up to derision. Perhaps it may just motivate me enough to actually do it.

I made some (Chinese) New Years resolutions today. Here they are for your viewing (and laughing) pleasure…

  1. Starting 26 February I will not drink a single drop for forty days. Happily enjoying a bottle of South African wine I bought at Carre Four, as the next time sweet nectar will pass my lips will be on 7 April, the 41st day…
  2. I pledge to quit smoking on Wednesday 28 February. That may prove to be the hardest one.
  3. I will exercise at least one hour everyday, even if only going for a brisk walk.
  4. I will study Chinese for at least 2 hours everyday.

Anyone care to join me in putting their foot in their mouth?

edit Just to clarify, should someone wonder why anyone’d want to do something as dumb as make new years resolutions. Mostly they’re all health related (except no.4), as I’ve grown tired of having to pull in my gut everytime a pretty girl walks by. And playing rugby on Sundays have become torture, I want the joy back…

But mostly I don’t want to have to pull in my gut when a pretty girl walks by.

My stuff is on the ‘Lent’ thread.

Partly what inspired me… :notworthy:
