I want to get back in shape and take up some creative pursuits again, like painting or writing. I also want to try and give up drinking at least for a while. I’m not a heavy drinker, but lately even a few beers makes me feel run down the next day.
So what’s everyone else’s soon-to-be-broken promises for the new year?
Not necessary a resolution, but I want to finish my masters at the top 10% of my class. It’s been rough, but I’ve been studying hard and balancing that with work/personal life. I usually don’t care too much about these things, but I promised myself I would give 110% to this.
Is there a search capability for top 10 forums where someone (me) talks or knows a lot of detailed information?
Those may be my resolution areas to either
a) improve
b) avoid
c) start a YouTube or Onlyfans page to make money off people watching me do something fantastic or dwindle off in despair.
Study Chinese more systematically. Right now I learn passively by watching mostly bad Chinese fare on Netflix and occasionally listening to ChinesePod while driving–but I hardly drive now.
Give more.
Get vaccinated for flu and Covid. And shingles now that I think about it.
Post less on forumosa! not that its a bad place here, i actually like it but i’ve definitely wasted far too much of my life this year reading people’s opinions of trump / vaccines.
