:lol: it does, but screw you! Your're lame! :P

I worded it badly that's all, i've always felt trapped in the generic Brandon style. I just said indie cause well, i would look a lot more indie, and coudl finally maybe get some respect from the elitists at the record store.

So how did everyone get on?

And try and get out of the house more and go and do stuff and be more sociable so that hopefully I can find me a boy.
And see an OLP concert with Nikki and Melissa.
And I'm going to stop being ill (hopefully).


1) yep
2) nope (boo to being tired all the time :( )
3) even better - I did 3 OLP concert and a BSB concert :love:
4) yep :mrgreen:

For 2006 - hopefully get the being tired all the time thing sorted so I can try number 2) again. And then I can also try to get fit, because I am INCREDIBLY unfit and it's not at all good for me.

well, i never bothered working out, plus i never checked my weight on a somewhat regular basis, so i guess its not valid. :uhh:

I didn't post in this thread last year, but my two resolutions were to a) post more often in my lj, and b) get a boyfriend.

a) failed, b) did not.

This year, I have so many plans and ways to restructure my life. I want to do millions of things, and see canada and possibly even do some travelling and meet people from all over and learn things and go outside and move to montreal and SO much stuff.

So apparently I never made a resolution last year. Which is odd.

This year I'm saying I'll lose some weight
Do well in school despite the lack of ambition and intrest
Expand my musical horizions
Save my money. Stop spending it on useless crap and spending money on others.
And go to a CM meetup.

Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything

Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Having no New Year's resolution is the best. Because then you can't disappoint yourself if you fail!

I don't make resoloutoins anymore, but set small goals to achieve in the year..

This coming January I am going to start sponsoring a child. This is something I have been thinking about doing for awhile now..

I am also setting up a finanacial plan for my immediate future. I have some major life changing decisions/goals I am making for the next few years. I need to have a fund setup to achieve these goals.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

I've only made one new year's resolution in my whole life. I think I was about 6 or 7 and I made the resolution to never make a new year's resolution. Up until this day I've kept it. Well, unless you count that one time :lol:

Monkey doesn't need to lose any weight. There's nothing left of him from recent photos I've seen.

And yay for Sarah coming to a meet up :D
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.
