New Year's Resolutions (finally)....

*sigh of relief* finally i can post this up... i know its already 20th January, but i was having some trouble editing my fonts, as i didn update my blog with the latest editor.... =.=

anyway, it took me quite a alot of time to create this list as it contains not only my own reflections, but also feedback from some of my friends.

okie, let's not waste anymore time and start with number 1. (my resolutions are not listed in order of their importance, as i wish to complete all of 'em)

1. Improve my social skills (be able to start a convo with a stranger)
 This is actually my DAILY resolution, i am really putting effort into trying to improve this everyday. Although i know very well i am still far from being a chatterbox, but i would like to think that i have made some improvements in this area. If i came to UTAR with 0 social skills, i think i have maybe 30 now...[if social skills can be measured la... =) ]

2. Make decisions
Suggested by one of my friends actually, but i feel its kinda good. This means that, should not juz keep saying anything, anywhere etc. when making plans and that sort of stuff. Instead make a decision.


3. Show more compassion and concern towards friends
 I was really taken aback when one of my friends said i was not the kind of friend to share secrets with (not bcoz i am mulut tempayan ok? its bcoz i am too happy go lucky type). Well, to hear this from a fren is disappointing, to hear it from a friend since Primary 1 is hurtful. So, i will definitely work on this.


4. Do not be angry
Yeap, not control my temper, but rather don be angry at all. Will elaborate more at the end of the post. (read the italics with the same colour)


5. Earn some money
Well, to me,a boy will only be a man when he starts to earn a living. Enuf said. i'll remember my godsis' advice though, pride comes before fall.


6. Enjoy life as it is
'With one eye set on the destination, u only have one left for the journey'. This is a sentence i took out from a book. It means to enjoy the process of life and not be too caught up on the goals. 'Happiness is a journey, not a destination'.


7. Be more helpful
Need to elaborate samo?


8. GPA 4.0 (at least once)
Hehehe, don tell me i cant just because even someone else cant get it. I know i couldnt even achieve it foundations and its even harder now that it's degree. But i am also one year more mature now, i know my priorities. Just because i've neva beaten someone else doesnt mean i cant, it only means i haven. ; )

Ta-dah, those a re my 8 resolutions for 2011. And as many of u already know, goals should be measurable and specific, but besides my eighth resolution, they're all impossible to measure. But i don really mind, bcoz this is my resolution and i need only explain to myself in the end whether i've achieve it.

Oh yeah, regarding resolution number 4, i will not allow any negative thoughts to invade my brain anymore, not a single one. Therefore, there's no reason to be angry, or sad at all rite if i only focus on cultivating my positive thoughts. Of coz its impossible to achieve this overnight, but i have a whole year to do this and i am already well into the process now.


Even when unfortunate things happen to us, its only part of the obstacles to bring us to where we're suppose to be. Just stop for a second and think about it, every single moment of good, sweet, happy, bitter, or sad is wat lead u to where u are now. The bitter moments that've made u cry, the moments which made u regret u ever did it, but then u're still here reading my blog, it wasn't the end of the world.


Btw, i m always there for my friends, i know i give the impression that i m a lazy person but i m always willing to help and u ppl can always share ur probs with me. I am really fine n happy, i know i may not smile 24 hours but i m really really fine in the inside. I will remember to bring my smile always from today onwards.

ok peeps, another post have come to an end...

P/S- i do not know how someone came into my brain and stole my idea, coz she posted her new year resolutions in almost the same way that i wanted to post...=.= so vry paiseh for 'copying'.. XD

chiao....
