Resolution - BoDeans

Advantages: It's not 2007 anymore!
Disadvantages: I didn't do very well.....

...Last year I decided to hedge my bets and do an A-Z of resolutions on Ciao - the thinking being that I'd at least manage to keep some of them. So, a year later it's time to see how I did. In order to get an overall idea of how I did, I will give myself 1 point where I have achieved my aim, deduct 1 point where I clearly haven't, and nothing for those where I neither have nor haven't! A = A in A level Psychology - I'm currently doing an A level Psychology via distance learning (i.e. I read the text book and meet with a tutor sporadically and say "everything's fine!", and turn up to the exams). This resolution is certainly achievable but only if I do get my finger out and do some work, as one of the exams is in 3 weeks!

I already go to the gym a lot and watch what I eat so whilst I could do with losing some weight apart from giving up chocolate I'm pretty much doing everything I should be and well giving up chocolate is just plain stupid after all resolutions are meant to make you happy and give you pleasure and to stop eating chocolate would go against everything I believe in, besides Cadburys would go bust and all those workers lose their jobs. My first resolution is that I am going to dive the SS Thistlegorm. This... Read review

...New Years resolutions for me tend to work extremely well till about the second week in January then all inclination of being a size 10, regular gym goer go out of the window. So this year I've decided to knock on the head the idea of ever getting more than one leg into a size 10 skirt and set up some more realistic goals. I'm not going to vow to be nice to small children, recycle my body weight in rubbish every month nor am I going to give up the few remaining vices I have. Nor am I going to vow to travel around the world on a yacht single handily -I get sea sick on a rowing boat in the local park nor am I going to bungee jump for charity but I am going to attempt to stick to a few of the resolutions listed below. Work Of course I'm going to turn up, I always do I rather like that one day of the month when my bank account is in... Read review
