Yeah there's another ancient topic but this is for 2009 bitches.

My resolutions include:
- Get straight A's...in other words, don't let Econ rape me in the ass again
- Be kinder to my parents
- Read at least one book a month apart from textbooks
- Stop f*cking pretending

So what are your resolutions?

I have only 4: 3 simple ones, and 1 kind of big one:
  1. Run more: I used to run all the time, but about a year and a half ago I injured (and subsequently re-injured) my leg; I couldn't run for 6 or 8 weeks, and I got out of the habit. I'm going to try to start running at least 4 times a week.
  2. Write more: Once upon a time, I used to write every day, and it was pretty damn good if I do say so myself; but aside from a newspaper column, I haven't written much in the past few years. I'm going to try to get back into it.
  3. Read more: Related to #2, I used to read a lot more, and I'd like to again, too. I have a reading list that's literally about four pages long, and I'd like to work on that. To start, I plan to read No Logo by Naomi Klein, Manufacturing Consent by Noam Chomsky, Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom by Cory Doctorow, and Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon.
  4. Figure out my life: There's a long and complicated story behind his one, but to put it simply, once upon a time I was a creative writing student, and then I switched to computer science for some crazy reason, and now I don't really like what I'm doing. I'd like to get a job as a writer (for something) or a journalist, or go back to grad school for creative writing or journalism.
