To paint better and to get better at posing.

To get my Gainer Flip down.
Also to get a relationship fixed between two of my friends. This one might take longer than i might think.

1. Improve my drawing and writing abilities.

2. Seek therapeutic help for my self-worth and self-loathing problems.

On second thought, the order is probably a bit off.

1. Finish the novel I've been writing since 2005.

2. Finish painting my Ork horde army. (I've got one squad 90% done!)

3. Stop buying so many Steam games.

If I accomplish one of these three, I'll be happy with myself.

I don't participate in New Year's Resolutions but I am trying to improve myself.

To be a bit more positive.

I'm probably going to fail.

That deserves a high five.

Oh heres another for myself. Too watch the movie taken.

Stay out of OT.

1. Paint at least one of my army's
2. Build a gaming table
3. Get a job
4. Try and get more drawing practice in

excluding hobby resolutions (which belong in the dakka discussion forum not OT in my opinion)...

1) Lose 5 pounds a month. This should be an easy goal to do and maintain.
2) Pay off my current Best Buy and Dell debts (I say current because I may buy a laptop with credit for my dad with my mother, but they may be paying for it)
3) Read at least 1 book a month. I have a lot of unread books that need reading!
4) Stop buying video games and never beating them (so I just have to beat them instead!)
5) Actually pass calculus 1.... I should stop dropping the class or actually go to class...

dude... I totally feel you on number 5. I took calculus 3 like 4 times.

My resolution is to go back to school and finish my degree

To be more social, as in see my friends outside of school activities at least once every 9 days. Damn, I sound pathetic. Well, at least I have friends at all.

The worst part is I have to take through calc 3... just for 2 stupid classes in my major

So that one's failed already.

Lose weight, then probably enlist or join ye olde local law enforcement agency

To not order Takeaway food too much.

To lose weight, but that's not really a new years resolution, I started that on 12/10 when I got a fitbit from my mom. It works pretty good - I was down about 9 pounds at one point, but I gained some back pigging out on New Years Eve. Between my sister's cooking and beer, it was a rough go, but that's OK, it's a long term project.

I guess my only actual New Years resolution is to try being less of a jerk all the time, but that also will be a rough go.

Generally improving myself. Holding myself accountable for my behavior. Things like that. Finally get around to enlisting, also. I didn't know it was possible to be as lazy as I am with such an important thing.

To survive the year and generally enjoy it.

To not get smashed again until Saturday.

To take my core coarse and other various firearm licenses.
2) if i have enough $$ buy a .44 magnum if i can complete the first part of my new year resolution

Kill a man just to watch him die.

That was mine last year. A junkie ambushed me at a local CVS and I stabbed him in the neck and watched him bleed all over the concrete until he drew his last breath. Really was a great experience to remove one more useless life from this world. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Tell me how does one draw a last breath, or for that matter, drawing any breath

He took out a sketch pad, and his set of Staedler Pencils, and drew it for me. Looked like this.

He was either a very quick and skilled artist, or you're a very incompetent killer

Probably both. Junkies are capable of feats mortal men dare to even think of.

I have seen junkies literally invent the Ork Kulture, without knowing it. Same language, same ideas, same smell...

Mine is to pick up my healthy lifestyle again

1) Actually make a game. I keep saying I am going to, but I don't. So my resolution is to do so.

2) Learn how to play the guitar. For the ladies

3) Start Working out. For the ladies
