Default OT: OFFICIAL What are your New Years Plans and Resolutions?

Out of pure amusement and curiousity I thought it would be fun to see what all you computer freaks are up to for New Years and what resolutions your going to be making this coming year.

For me, I'm going to head down to Waikiki for the huge block party they have on the beach. It should be a good time and packed with beautiful women from around the world.

For resolutions:
1) Get back into the gym
2) Surf an 8ft wave (16 foot face)
3) Surf a 10ft wave (20 foot face)
4) Surf a 12ft wave (24 foot face)
5) Have the caRRR running and back in my clutches by the end of February
6) Go back to work as an Electrician
7) Buy my first house this comming summer
8) Open my first studio


We're all adults here for the most part so tell us what your up to. Going to stop smoking crack? Let us know. Gonna give five dollars to every little old lady you see? Let us know. Going to stop downloading child pornography from servers in the Ukrane? Let us know.

Hope you all had a good Christmas and your still stuffed. Have a Happy New Year.

Aloha,
Brandon

Three years ago my new years resolution was to have no more new years resolutions and I've stuck to that ever since.

My mode of thought is why wait to accomplish, change or do something differently? What if you want to do something come Febuary? Gonna wait 10 months? Nope.

- get back in the gym/on the bike and finish losing the weight I started on - got a good start for about a year, then stalled (work is my excuse )
- sell ITR
- figure out what the hell I want to do for '05 and beyond behind the wheel

Thats about it.

I really haven't decided yet. I might try to quit smoking again.

One thing I've decided (not in a resolution though) is to spend more time at the track. If I do manage to find the time, I'm buying a racecar next winter.

1. GTFO of H-T so much.

2. Study damn hard

3. Quit holding back and ask out any girl I want to but otherwise might not usually ask out

4. Work out (i.e. need more muscle)

5. Start going to church again

6. Quit drinking so much (soft drinks that is)

7. Quit swearing so much

8. Spend more time with family (see #1)

9. Find out the name of the song that the Patriots play at their games (techno'ish song)

10. Keep my friend out of jail by making sure he quits sleeping with underclasswomen since he is 18 now.

11. Finish this book I've been trying to start writing for a year now.

12. Waste as much money as possible on track events.

13. Lose the V (j/k).

I think thats about it.

I don't have resolutions per se.
Goals for 2005:

#1-Surf more.
#2-10's in my all motor Civic.
#3-220 whp out of my 1.8 liter 91 octane ITR.
#4-Spend as much time as possible with my family as #1-#3 will allow.
(#4 will actually determine how much time I devote to #1-#3).

My New Year Resolutions:

1) Learn to drive my Type R like a pro.

2) Getting a job that pays what I am really worth.

3) Treat my girl better.. been too busy with the job and the R, less time for her, I feel bad.

4) Buy a nicer house

5) Be more patience with everything... Cause it pays to be patiences (Boiling Point)

Hopefully it'll be a success.

Well since I don't have an ITR.

- Drive my friend's ITR as much as possible
- Somehow get my own CW ITR
- Work out more.
- Get accepted into college.

I'm seriously praying for #4 to happen.

Good luck to all you guys with your resolutions. It's always tough, but always possible.

1.) Finish getting my degree at Uni. Been there long enough. MOST important.

2.) Debut the ITR (Only got it in Sep) at a track, and take it there more than I did with my previous car. (More than 7 full day events in 2004 alone with the MIVEC Mirage)

3.) Hopefully get a better job and move into a house where I don't scrap my front lip and rear muffler everytime I pull into the garage. Doubtful though.
