To The Start Of A New Decade

Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, and I’d like to state some resolutions. Perhaps telling people about them will make me stick to them more than I would otherwise. Let me say also that I’m not making up resolutions just to have them; I normally don’t. But who doesn’t view the year’s end (and in this case, the decade’s end) as a fresh start? This time, I’d like to use it as an excuse to change a few things up.

Firstly, I want to blog more often. It’s been a challenge for me to keep a steady flow of blog posts, as you can probably tell… I tend to take a few months off every once in a while. Perhaps I will devote one day of the week to blogging, that would be a way to remind myself to do it. I do enjoy writing and photography, I just have to remember!

Secondly, I would like to study a little harder this term. I let the reading of my textbooks slide a little last term, and though it probably didn’t impact my grades too much, I would most likely have an easier time during tests and labs if I really applied myself, focused on the reading, did as many practice problems as I could, etc. I want to kick this term’s butt! This may leave me with less time for myself, but it’s worth it.

I will still have some free time, and apart from the times I’ll be with my friends, I want to devote it to reading. I have so many books that I’ve only half read, or bought but not read at all, and they deserve to be read! I know they’re all good books, to different degrees. And as I go through them, I’ll put them on my Shelfari bookshelf (see the left column of my blog) and you can check out what I’m reading.

Happy New Year! A new decade is about to begin…

P.S. It’d be interesting to me to hear from whoever reads this blog! Feel free to comment on my posts, leave ideas for posts (I’ll definitely need those if I’m going to do this resolution…) or books to read, anything! Of course, even if I don’t have many readers, I’m going to continue… 🙂
