... New Year!

[certainthings]

[insert lame noise maker sound]

it's a couple of days before the first that I'm typing this. and for at least a week, probably longer I've already been thinking on all the new year's resolutions that I want to try again and will most likely break again. you know. your basic: eat better, lose weight, be kind, stop murdering so many people, etc.

also, read a fucking book. jesus. some people (much better than I people) set goals of like 50 books or more a year and a few years ago, I could probably do that but now, it's... okay, I could read a book OR I could read this fanfic that I've already read three times.

and I'd like to take to take more pictures for instagram but like, I rarely leave the house (other than to work and do errand runs) and when I do, I feel like a knob (nob?) getting out my phone to take a picture. so. I'm thinking maybe #365days #cat and just take a random picture of the cat in the house.

I'm sure there are other resolutions and such. but can I remember them? nah.

hahaha!!! I would like to see #365 #cat...that's kinda hilarious.

I too set some sort of book goal this morning...I pulled 25 that I've been dying to read and put them on an alternate shelf, I mean, I think I should be able to total bigbangs into my book count. am i wrong?

and let's help each other with the murder impulse control thing, we'll buddy up for that one, I for one am running out of places to bury bodies

ive started picking smaller more measurable resolutions. I went bout 50/50 for 2014, it was good enough for me!

I feel like a knob constantly when I take random photos but when you explain to people you're doing a project that lasts all year they're often impressed, hahahahahaha

This, exactly. I do that, too. (I really need to get serious about life in general offline this year, actually. But it's hard - because online is so much better, damn it....)

i used to set big resolutions and never managed to complete them. i realised i was aiming for stuff i didn't care about in the first place.

so i make a balance between things i like doing and things i feel i should do more. like, i want to read more books. so i set a realistic goal of 12 (i have a friend and her goal is 150+ and that's insane and could never reach it) which is feel is doable. also i read somewhere that the average person only reads 7 a year and i feel i can beat that. also things like, watch 12 docos. sure i'm laying in bed but i'm learning things at the same time.

maybe document your commute to work on instagram. find pretty things along the way and snap a photo of them. i sometimes feel like a knob taking photos of stuff, but i figure that everyone else is doing the same thing.

also i've been enjoying your cat photos. cuuuute.
