resolutions...

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

resolutions...

Firstly,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

I hope you all had a suitably splendid christmas and new year....and I hope 2004 is a corker for you all....may all of your hangovers be light

Secondly, I'm interested in knowing your new year resolutions...did anyone make any? Has anyone broken them already? I thought it would be good fun to document them all now so at the end of the year I can take the p*** out of the lot of ya

I have two resolutions this year...

1. Lose some weight before my wedding.
2. Spend more time with friends and family and less time at work....last year was a killer for me (18 hour days, every day for over 6 weeks near the end of the year - including weekends!).

Anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Anyone?

i made the decision to work more and piss around less. I guess ive failed but i dont know I have ALOT of work in for a week on friday and i'm NOWHERE near finishing because i just dont have the mental capacity to sit down for hours at a time and do something that is mentally the most boring thing in the world. Especially when Star Wars beckons me so. I do this every time i get some homework and i put myself trhu the same mini hell, time and again. I figured i should work to maybe do some WHEN i get it, not when i have to hand it in. I can barely sleep with worey, i'm not eating properly and yet i'll waste hours of my day playing videogames. i'm a chronic slacker and my body doesnt want to do what my brain tells it to.

Wow Arcon, you just described me

I haven't made any resolutions, because I cannot fulfill them. Good self-knowledge eh?

welcome back gromit, and why the chuff did you work 18 hour days?

Post Mon Jan 05, 2004 6:19 am

thanks guys, good to be back

@taw - fun? FUN?! how dare ya all have fun without me! what did i miss?
@card - 18 hr days cos I'm a ****ing mug. I didn't even get overtime pay. Told my boss this morning to kiss my @ss and he seems to have taken it well (so far!)
@archie - sounds like the life of any student, lazy days laden with guilt, 4am stints of "**** this has to be in at 9", smokey discussions about when to start revision etc etc. Don't worry about it, everyone does it....I managed to do it for 5 years and still walked out with a couple of decent qualifications....still to this day don't know how, but hey, thats another thing entirely.

1. be more ominous
2. invent a darker color than black for my wardrobe
3. name and categorize the multitude if imaginary beings that plague my psyche
4. find something ELSE to do in the freelancer universe
5. eat a large cornivore (bear, tiger, alligator, shark, marmut)
6. punch a public official in self defense
7. solve the annoying zeno's paradox question
8. disprove every last one of einsteins theories and then say just kidding
9. kick it old school
10. visit New Orleans for Mardi Gras (serious about this one)
11. lie in a shower naked and crying
12. invent socks
13. begin to wear socks
14. wear socks until they go out of style
15. travel back in time to the moment that I invented socks and chop myself into little tiny bits big enough to fit in socks and then bury the socks filled with me in many sock shaped holes in a vague dot-to-dot picture of a scene of me inventing socks then travel back to the future and reveal the entire plot on Geraldo Rivera's new riveting TV series on FOX
16. kill Geraldo Rivera
17. ressurect Geraldo Rivera with arms and legs in switched positions
18. kill Geraldo Rivera again
19. e-mail the folks at Weebl-stuff.com and tell them they do fabulous work
20. recieve an RE: from the folks at weebl-stuff.com telling me never to contact them again due to outrageous claims of pregnancy by their staff
21. adopt a philosophical standpoint on hats and the way they should be eaten
22. eat a hat
23. establish a religion based on snack crackers
24. compile a list of discrepancies in the LOTR movies that severely altered the story
25. kill 7 million bacteria in a single blow
26. get payed 20 bucks and a rock of crack for the blow
27. find out which one of my cats is the better fighter
28. find a penny
29. pick it up
30. all day long
31. I have good luck
32. travel back in time and find whoever came up with silly little songs for silly little actions and then grab them by the arm and yank their arm off at the elbow and then beat them about the head and shoulders with their own arm

I think that'll do for a good round of why-do-we-continue-to-let-Doom_Lancer-post-here posts.

Good?....Bad?......I'm the guy with the gun.
