Nothing major or too unrealistic. Mainly to try to find an enjoyable and rewarding second job, to bank a set amont of money each week, and to put at least a little bit of effort into trying to pull some lasses.

get a 2:1
grow a hipster lesbian mullet
learn to drive
move abroad (maybe)

#107

get promotion or another job, or get a promotion and then get another job
think that’s it really. do a bit more exercise and be less of a wimp maybe?

My goal for 2017 is to properly manage my money, get a band started so I can play for a beneficial show my friend is hosting, find an apartment to move in and actually pick up my rusty artistic skills again.

  • get better at making friends/make more friends/be less boring and invisible and awkward (pretty sure this was one last year too lol i am a lost cause)
  • do more (non-academic) writing cos i’m starting to get things published here and there and it feels nice (this one is vastly more achievable)
  • stress less and go to the pub more (this one is diametrically opposed to last year’s)
  • do some activism
  • do more activities, like yoga or some other sort of non-competitive physical thing
  • climb more hills and generally spend more time in nature

nah my problem really isn’t a lack of meeting new people, doing a masters in a new city and i am surrounded by an abundance of cool and interesting people that i interact with on a daily basis and sometimes even hang out with. it’s just that my personality is inadequate and i’m incapable of platonic intimacy, neither of which are conducive to forming substantial friendships ¯_(ツ)_/¯

but maybe i just need to get REALLY into yoga and nature and embrace a life of solitude

#118

#119

  1. release an album (2 if you include Post Louis)

All good stuff!

The next step is putting those goals into measurable targets. So instead of “get better at golf” it could be " reduce handicap by two" or “buy 24 goals lessons.”

This year instead of “travel more” I put “visit two new countries”.

What gets measured gets improved!

Who’s with me? C’mon! puts on spandex starts lunging

Weirdly I think my post conforms to your rules here. I definitely know what I want out of 2017 it seems.

#122

Read at least one book a month
Get back into climbing
Better work-life balance: do enough work in the day so I can stop at 5pm. I currently faff all day and rush it out between 3.30 and 7pm which is pointless
Go for a few weekends away in Europe while we still have the chance of cheap tickets and easy border controls

Fuck yes this.
