New Year's Resolutions

[alexmegami]

A few days late, here are my New Year's resolutions:

-gain some weight
-be able to bench press (one-rep max) 60 lbs. and do 50 (proper) push-ups
-earn (net) $7500
-complete the 50-book challenge
-successfully complete NaNoWriMo
-finish at least another third of the Fanart100
-complete the 100 Prompts
-write a Heroes spec script before April
-get some job experience (in order to)
-get hired

Anyone else got some goals I could achieve? Or something I said I'd do and forgot?

Are you trying to get hired to write for Heroes? If so, congratulations and tons'o'good luck! But also, if you are, you might want to write a spec script for a different show. You're not really suppposed to submit a spec script of the show you're applying to, to the staff of that show. I don't know why exactly, as it seems rather silly, but that's what I've read. :)

I know, and I'm not trying to get hired to write for Heroes. And the reasoning is that to some extent, they don't want to be liable if you've come up with something they've come up with, and also that they've already probably thought of your idea - it's not going to be fresh, like it would be to someone else.

I love that, while 98% of the population has resolved to lose weight, you've resolved to gain weight. Way to go, Ali.

If you can do 50 proper push-ups shouldn't you be able to bench press 60 more than once?

And didn't you successfully complete NaNoWriMo this year? Are you simply resolving to do it again, or did you screw something up this time?

That's a resolution I've had for a while, it just hasn't gone anywhere.

You might think so, but no. Once upon a time, I was able to do 50 proper pushups. (Back when I was in kung fu.) I was still pretty weak, though. And if I manage to surpass my goal, well, great.

I did, but it's a yearly thing. So yes, I'm simply resolving to do it again.

I used to be able to do 50. Once upon a time.

Read 50 books in a year - basically one a week, with some time off for things like holidays ;)
