Not my resolutions

It's one of those days again when I feel like my life is stagnant. Mostly, it's my fault. There are plenty of things which I can do to un-stagnate my life. But I'm just too much of a slob to get up and actually start doing or learning something new. And when I think that there're actually so many things I can do, so many ways I can improve myself and make life interesting at the same time, it conjures up a feeling of inadequacy, that I'm deficient in so many ways. I wish I'm one of those people, who are motivated enough to teach themselves new stuff, and follow through till the end until they've mastered what they have set out to learn.

I realised I didn't make an effort to come up with some new year resolutions this year. Probably because I didn't attend a new year's eve mass, during which the priest would usually ask us to think of some resolutions and pray for them. Now that I try really hard to think of some, there're quite a few. But I'm considering if I should pen them down because if I do, I would have to really make an effort to accomplish them. And the slob in me is telling me not to 'formalize' my resolutions. Let's compromise and put them as my ALL-TIME TO DO LIST. Now I don't have to accomplish them within a year...kakaka..

1. Learn Spanish
2. Improve my knowledge on Geography.
3. Read the news more often.
4. Finish the Bible (I'm so embarrassed to pen this down)
5. Pick up the guitar again.
6. Learn about the types of alcohols/ bartending knowledge.
7. Try cross-stitch (too ambitious, I know)
8. Less facebooking.
9. Do a painting, no matter how crappy it might turn out to be.
10. Read up on Astronomy.
11. Read up on Greek mythology.

Wait till I'm more serious about this list. I'll then put them as a sidebar on my blog and have the pleasure of crossing them out when I complete each goal. Notice how I didn't put anything academic on it? Academic goals do not count because they would be endless. Imagine if I have to write...Read up on Embryology, Finish Snell's Neuroanatomy, Finish Ganong/ Guyton...etc etc...GOSH, it'll be endless and it would so put me off from actually starting out on the list.

Last rant, I sometimes go through a certain phase during a friendship. I call it the Repelling-and-hating-absolutely-everything-about-you phase. And I'm currently in one right now with a friend. 'With' here is really unsuitable as it is only one-sided, so I should say 'Towards'. Waiting for the phase to pass....dum-di-di-dum-di-la-la-    After, and should I get over this phase, I would usually super like this friend. Let's hope it passes soon.

Last, last rant, I'm super pissed at a friend for treating something that belongs to me recklessly. It hurts yo, to see something which belongs to you being thus treated. Why can't people learn to treat people the way they want to be treated, and treat the things of others the way they want theirs to be treated. To make things worse, it actually went against my better judgement, in the first place, to entrust my 'baby' to you. Lesson of the day, TRUST MY OWN JUDGEMENT.
