New Year's Resoultions

Another year gone already, yet it brings with us another fresh slate to scrawl on.
Do you have any resolutions, goals, vows, quests, or otherwise for 2013?

This year, I resolve:

* To do more with my time outside of video games and computers.
Maybe I'll check out an online programming course so that I can learn to make my own games, eheh

* To not worry so much about "what I think I should be doing", and focus more on "what I enjoy doing"

* To spend more of my days awake for a change . . ;

That's my big three. If I can at least meet one of those, I'll feel a sense of accomplishment this year instead of the dreaded deja vu. But wait, shouldn't I not be seeing this as something I NEED to do as outlined in the second one above?
Oh dear I've created a space paradox

I'm actually kinda surprised I managed to stick with last year's resolution of buying 12 or less games in 2012.
A few 3DS titles around Christmas bumped the number up at the last second, but wound up a nice solid 10 titles for the year.

At any rate, here's to another year that hopefully will feel less like a mere number

I don't usually make resolutions, exactly. I like to focus on what to change about myself right now, no matter what year, month, or day it is. We are always in need of self-improvement, and that can't always happen very quickly, even in a year's time for the bigger dreams and goals. Although these are always at the top of my head :

* Study and improve on art; learn as much as I can about the software so that the learning curve is the least of my problems while creating art. (I feel like I've already learned a good deal about GIMP in the past year, and feel quite comfortable with the interface, so that's a nice accomplishment for me.)

* Learn as much as I can about another language (Spanish, then German.) on the Internet before taking serious studies in a class, once I can afford that. That way it won't be as overwhelming to start.

* Better manage my time so that all of my projects, studying, writing, socializing, and reading are done within a reasonable time frame, instead of just the one I happen to be focusing on when the urge hits me.

12 games? Ha, I got you beat there, I haven't bought a game since Pokemon Black last year in 2011! Then again, I was spending most of my money on electronic hardware and tools, as usual, (And the next major purchase on my list of things to buy is a tablet!) so I rarely get to stock up on games as much as I like. XD Heck, I need to spend nearly a good $30 on a replacement screen and battery for my phat DS before I can buy and enjoy Pokemon Black 2 to its fullest. =P
