Birthday Resolutions

My birthday is coming this summer, and I thought resolutions shouldn't be limited for new years, it's time I set some birthday resolutions, to reinforce that I genuinely get a year wiser by 2014.

(In the ascending order of difficulty)

  1. Limit LKF nights to once every three months(quarterly). I don't need to take shots and stay up till 5am anymore, I should be more mature than that, healthier than that. Genuine friends would understand that, if they don't, they're not genuine friends. 
  2. Watch less crappy TV shows and movies, aka the Kardashains/ Ryan Lochte and movies like Hangover/ 21 and Up.
  3. Read more, quantity and quality wise. Read out of my comfort zone, less novels, more biographies, philosophical books, books that are insightful, that think out of the box. Books lined up: the Malcolm Gladwell series =)
  4. Write more, quantity and quality wise. Blog more, finish that debut novel. Proofread and edit constantly to perfect the writing style, making sure the plot is heading to where it's intended and not astray or convoluted  =)
  5. Run the 2014 marathon, run 3.3.30 (3 days a week, 3 miles in 30mins)
  6. Réviser mon Français, eating more French food or a trip to Cannes/Nice doesn't count...hrm actually scrap that, a trip to Cannes or Nice does count, that should actually be a part of my resolutions, add pixels and vibrance to my mundane and forlorn life =)
  7. Reduce impulse shopping and save more
  8. Stop falling for the womanizers, don't let good looks be a guy's excuse to be cocky, let it be the compliment to an amazing personality, someone who can enrich me on a deeper level, help me grow as a person. Remind myself that I deserve that. 
  9. Be a role model, a source of positivity and inspiration, to serve a grander cause and purpose.
