Pointless New Year Resolutions

My Pointless New Year Resolutions for 2009 (PNYR):

  1. Shed the last 8kg which seemed to have found its final resting place on 'specific' areas;
  2. Actually love what I am doing professionally;
  3. Start saving for retirement;
  4. Rarely skip the gym (and swapping it with the karaoke hub conveniently located next door. Remember PNYR#1);
  5. Never to use my bursting vocabulary of profanities again whenever stuck in horrendous traffic jams, especially when trying to carry out PNYR #2;
  6. Never to buy another gadget just because it comes in a stylish glossy white finish which I can't take my eyes off from (Must always remind self of PNYR#3. Never to justify such desire with "but I need it for my PNYR#2");
  7. Drink less 'teh ais'. Detrimental to teeth (and waistline. Embed PNYR#1 in memory. Wait, what was PNYR#1 again???);
  8. Watch less Spongebob except on Sunday mornings when TV3 is not doing reruns (note: carried forward from last year's PNYR);
  9. Read intelligent stuff more often and not because it's the only thing you can find on the toilet rack while doing you-know-what ( but how can I get enough time and energy if my life will be mainly focused on PNYR #1 to #8, and oh yeah, the you-know-what too??!);
  10. Get married (note: also carried forward from last year's PNYR. Well, these ARE Pointless.New.Year.Resolutions anyway. So, unaccomplished past PNYRs are allowed to be carried forward).

I hope you all have better luck with your PNYRs this year!
