Resolutions 2012

Let's see the resolutions I made in '11.

1. Reduce procrastinating. I nearly single-handedly screw up my entire future, since I studied only approximately 2 weeks before each exam, compare to my colleagues that started like months before. I seriously learned my lesson, and will not put myself through that kind of torture ever again. (yeah right)
- For the last semester, I actually caught up with the lecture notes which it's an amazing feat. Baby steps, but progress nonetheless.

2. Learn to apologise more often when I'm in the wrong. I learned that I'll never apologise last time and just make it up to the person in other ways. In 2010, I did say sorry more often, but not enough I guess.
- Not enough still I guess. But I'm getting there eventually :)

3. Never trust someone that easily, give a longer time frame before start disclosing secrets to them. I'll say I trusted some of my friends wrongly by telling them secrets I never told other people before, and now we are as good as strangers.
- I did learned how to spill my beans lesser to unfamiliar people, so yay! Another resolution done.

4. Master my DSLR/micro four third and be a semi-pro photographer :)
- I semi-mastered it, but there's still a lot to learn which I gave up. Knowing the basics should be sufficed since I'm not planning to be a professional photographer.

5. Blog more frequently, at least twice a month. I like writing and studying medicine shall not deter me from doing so. My grammar and vocabulary really deteriorated.
- I failed very badly for this, nuff said.

6. Improve my driving skills, don't get much opportunity to drive usually (only three cars in the family, for mum, dad and bro). Never side park before as well, which I shall soon attempt.
- Obviously I did improved since I'm driving more nowadays. However, my driving skills will pour down the drain whenever my mum sits beside me, all the nerves just racked up. And I can't drive properly in a stressful condition. Still a lot to learn!

7. Be healthier, at least go for evening walks once a MONTH. The only walks I ever do is in shopping malls.
- I don't even know why I bother to add this resolution when I know it's impossible for me.

8. Make an effort to online my MSN more often and initiate a conversation with friends to keep in touch.
- Erm, I barely on MSN the whole of '11. But I'm always available at whatsapp and facebook :/. I didn't really keep in touch much frankly, so I failed this too.

9. Sleep lesser during lectures. Almost every single lecture, I'll fall asleep and just basically throwing my parent's money down the drain by doing so. I will reduce my sleeping capacity, and vow to fall asleep a maximum of only three times a week during lectures.
- This resolution is such a joke. For my last semester, I have resorted to not attending any lectures at all, the number of lectures I attended can count with my 10 fingers, not kidding.

10. Avoid waking up past 3 pm during holidays or weekends. I can sleep all the way to 6pm if there's no alarm. Lastly, do not sleep later than 6am, and try to sleep earlier before 2am as often as possible.
- epic fail.


4/10. I need to make more realistic resolutions that I can fulfill.

Anyway, new year, new start. Resolutions for '12 -

1. Make sure my marimo ball, Money survives a year.

2. Use facial cleanser every night before I sleep. I just use water usually cause can't be bothered.

3. Be more prepared and ready for class. I'm going to enter my clinical years soon and will be dealing with real patients, so I really need to be on my toes at all times.

4. Learn how to bake. Having an oven in Seremban!

5. Sleep before 1am during days where by I have 8am classes. And try to sleep earlier if possible at times.

6. Avoid showering after midnight.

7. Walk in the park at LEAST once a month. (repeating the resolution from last year).

8. Do laundry more often and not because I'm running out of clothes.

9. Wash my car at least once every three months.

10. Blog at least once a month!

Already have a feeling that I won't be able to fulfill some of the resolutions :/ but shall remain positive.
