    What are your guys' New Year's resolutions for 2014?

    I'm going to start looking for work.

    Well I don't generally make resolutions, same with "getting into the holiday spirit" this time of year because I believe we should always try to be in good spirit and make resolutions to our lives.

    But if I wanted to map out some things I guess it would be:

    - find a beautiful lass to xoxoxo with
    - try to keep my apartment clean more often
    - be more friendly and do things with people more often (but not too much mind you)

    This is always a hard question to answer cause you tell yourself your going to change some part of yourself or that your going to do something different for once but it's easy to say and harder to do.

    So my goals are simple...

    Try harder to do well in college and continue my dreams of working at Disney or dream works.

    I also want to keep my family and friends (animals included) healthy and happy.

    I want to have as much fun as possible. I want to enjoy life one day at a time.

    Well since I actually fulfilled my resolution from last year I guess I should try and make up a new one... hmm... I think I'll work on my organization skills a bit more. I would say get better at doing class/homework but I know I probably wouldn't if I made it a goal or a resolution...

    I don't tend to give myself resolutions because I've learned that I don't really change things up much. Still, if I had to set some goals, it'd probably be:

    ~Get a job sometime in the near future (preferably before college starts)
    ~Study harder (I currently study .001% of the time for anything)
    ~Catch up on my read/watch lists
    ~Branch out just a bit more irl

    Let's play hide-and-seek.

    Also, don't get an electric guitar unless you already know how to play guitar. Electrics offer too many distractions...*looks at gear* >> ...Just some friendly advice.


    Anyways, I don't have any resolutions of my own. I never do because there's nothing really different from one year to the next. It's just a change of calendar. The best time to start change is always now, not when the next year comes about. That being said, the only thing I really want to do next year is get in some more practice time. I'm letting my 8 string go to waste by not being creative enough. It deserves better dammit.

    Three things;

    ● Ditch the shit job I'm in right now and find a new one wherein I don't actually hate basically everyone (srsly never work in an office)
    ● Pass my driving test ;___;
    ● Go to more gigs


    Pretty boring yeah.

    I haven't thought much about it yet, but I do have a few:

    -Study hard and get accepted to the school I plan on going to
    -Exercise more often (like about 3-5 times a week)
    -Fix my PS3 (the visuals/sound don't work)
    -Start practicing viola more often

    I might have some more later, but that's what I have so far.

    Well, I should probably get my driver's licence. And I need to apply to the technical school and get into the MRI program. I also need a new job which pays more than minimum wage (lucky me, applying to the only store in the chain that doesn't have to give raises after 500 hours of work...). At some point, I need to also rip out the carpet and install my other bookshelf.

    This year I'm going to try to

    - Make some friends at school, (Cause I only talk to the kids from my Elementary school, and my parents are "Worried")
    - Study harder (I'll start that one after my
    Math exams are over :p )
    - Have a proper
    Youtube Uploading Schedule
    - Be more active on various Forums
    - Go to some Auditions for like, acting stuff.
    I don't think I'm going to uphold/complete any of these though... XDD

    Hmm... That's a conundrum ... I suppose for one thing I need to get a job. Also, need to get on a regular posting schedule for that story you all didn't know I was writing. I could probably think of more, but I don't want to.

    XD

    I'm not sure whether I will follow through with these or not, it's difficult for me to keep with them for the most part, but so far mine would be:

    Try to expand my social circle a bit offline
    Apply myself much more looking for work
    Teach my dog to be a little more obedient, as well as a few new tricks
    Actually do more work on the script that I should be working on more
    Conquer all of KHV, Australia, and the rest of the world and become a dictator.

    I've some more New Year's resolution now: Record my projects during the day.

    I used to do all of my recording during the day, and for over a year now, for some reason, I somehow got to doing it around 10:30 PM at night, with during the daytime being a very rare thing. This is why it's pretty much only been one video a day. Sure, there have been times where it's been intentionally one video on some days, but that was when I was recording during the day and had the choice. When I record at night around 10:30 PM, I can only get about 30 minutes of recording if I want to have enough time to process, save and upload the video. I mean, there were two nights a while ago where I only got about 10 minutes of recording because I didn't start until around 11:10 PM.

    So my resolutions are:
    • Update my channel every day in 2014
    • Upload more than one video a day in 2014

    @hatok should definitely enjoy this.
