New Year’s Resolutions

I'm not planning to make one, but it is inevitable. You will get around to thinking about it. So here's my take on what I should do this year. 1. Quit smoking. Like I haven't been trying to do this ever since I felt breathing through iron lungs after climbing a flight of stairs. 2. Lose weight and stay slim. That too. 3. Get out more. Of course, with my Chings. 4. Pay my debts. To credit cards, that is. 5. Optimize my blog for search engines. 6. Learn how to make my own theme for WordPress. 7. Learn how to make a plugin for WordPress. 8. Stop ripping off code from other blogs and theme-makers. Heh. 9. Finish a video game without cheating. Like that'll happen. 10. Put more relevant content in my blog. Not just news from other websites. Nor gossip from the office. 11. Learn CPR. I should put this higher. Oh well. 12. Spend at least 5 minutes with every single one of my friends. And be nice with them. 13. Unlucky. Skip this one. 14. Stop being superstitious. 15. See every idea through until it is completed. 16. Finish writing the "Universal City Chronicles" I was working on before. 17. Finish writing my short story. Or rewrite it altogether. 18. Buy a new digital camera. After the wedding, most likely. 19. Buy new tires for my car. 20. Buy a new cellphone for my Chings and me. 21. Get married, have kids and live happily ever after. Well, that's enough for now. Too much or too little, I don't care. I'll be happy if I can achieve half of what's on this list. That reminds me, I need to make more money. Any suggestions besides monetizing this blog?
