Resolutions.

New Years resolutions are so cliche.  Last year was the first year in quite a few that I even made any.  I made two last year, to get in shape and to be more direct with people about my opinions, feelings, wishes, etc..  For someone who does not want to make New Years resolutions because they are cliche my first one was the most cliche one of all.  The reason for picking that was because I had gained a lot of weight during the previous year and was having chest pains.  I felt it important for my health to get in better shape.  The second resolution I made was because I have a big problem telling people what I want or even talking to people in general.  Well I was quite successful for the most part until the beginning of this last semester when I put on all the weight I had lost.  I managed to be more forward with people (but still lost a girl I was dating because of my inability to talk about anything personal).  So this year I have decided to make resolutions again.  But rather than make different ones I have decided to continue with the same resolutions as last year.  I realized that somethings just take longer than a year, I know I can succeed because I did get in shape (just relapsed)  and I have made progress in my conversational skills I am just not all the way yet.  The new year has given me an excuse to refocus and think about the reasons that I failed before so hopefully I will do better this next year.

Its November

Well its November and I have not posted yet so this will be truly random.  You see, rather than study like I should be doing right now because I have two tests coming up this week I would rather be posting about nothing.  It probably would not be so bad had I not been procrastinating for the last 2 weeks.  I have been playing the new video games that I bought.  Fable II and Fallout 3.  They are both great.  Tons of nerd hating out there on the Fable II and while their complaints may be valid I just don't get why people cannot just like the games the way they are.  It is still fun and problems like those talked about can be fixed in patches. 

Anyway, enough about my lazy nerdiness.  It has finally started to get cold and last weekend into the beginning of this week it snowed nonstop up in the mountains.  Snowbird opened yesterday and I really wanted to go up.  Screw school.  So I decided to put my goals for the month up here so that I can look back and say wow, I am awesome cause I accomplished something.  Or perhaps I will just hate myself because I never accomplish anything.  

1. Do NOT fail any tests.
2. Clean my house, especially my office.
3. Get new motherboard for desktop.
4. Not miss any shifts at work.
5. Go to the gym or some other form of exercise 3 times per week.
6. Not play video games when I have more important things to do.

Well good luck me.

I love the winter.



Yes it's true, I am a big fan of winter. I love the snow and cold. The way I see it is that no matter how cold it gets you can always put on another layer of clothing when it gets cold. However the same is not true for when it gets hot. There comes a point where taking another layer of clothing off in the summer either does not do the trick or you will get arrested. Neither one of those options is good at all.

One of the only reasons that I can tolerate living in Utah is the winter. I love snowboarding. Last year when I didn't buy a seasons pass the season was awesome. As a result I ended up spending about twice as much as I would have had I just bought one to begin with. Anyway I bought one this year so hopefully it is a good season, this is why I am so excited for snow.
