    Lose weight, stop smoking, stop biting nails, stop bitching, cut down drinking, stop spending - start saving, socks in the linen basket at the end of the day. The usual ones really.

      I've got my final exams for 6th form this year, so I want to do well in them. I want to clear up what's going to happen in my life after them. I want to get a job. And above all, I want the next year to be at least as good as this one.

      may be these can fall under resolutions, I am not sure though. I think these are all your wishes. What about "resolutions" ?

        Well, you never know. Highly doubtful I'll achieve any of them in reality.

          This means you were not working this year. Good step to get ahead. Carry on

            Why does everyone want loose weights? I thought free weights had been made obsolete by exercise machines. ;)

                I resolve to do well in my final exams for 6th form. I resolve to clear up what's going to happen in my life after they're done I resolve to do my best to get a job. I resolve to make the next year as good as this one. It's just a matter of chopping and changing the sentences to give it an active voice.

                  I thought when I would visit the Lounge around the 31st Dec, I would be able to see some new year resolutions being posted here. To my surprise there are none. So lets start now. What are your resolutions for this new year. I will post mine - Loose weight. Sounds funny, but its true. Software development job (sitting job without no movement / physical activities) can help you gain weight quickly ! Your thoughts are welcome !!!! [Edit] : Forgot to wish all CPians and there families a very happy and prosperous new year ! May your coding skills sharpen this year and we see a rise in world economy again.

                  I do not make resolutions as I will not keep them, so why bother. I am 50+ pounds overweight and counting. I really need to start exercising but no resolution.

                              Everyone seems to get that wrong these days. Oh, and being a fat git is not as bad as everyone makes out. It's a sign of a good life. That's what we need, more fat people.

                                    I will try to not do better than Chuck Norris in anything. ;P Seriously, no resolutions. And a Happy New Year to everyone.

                                      I'll join you on this one... Loose weight and get fitter, code more, and get into electronics. I'd like to get into robotics within the next few years. :-D I'd like to try to start my own business in the new year. Not really a resolution, but it's certainly a significant change in my life... :-D

                                      Cool, I have an advanced degree in electronics engineering. I had planed to start some robot projects. I would like to compete with Harvard on creating a colony of robotic bees. But anything would be fun. If you want a 'buddy' or another person to collaborate with I would be glad to lend a hand.

                                        This last year I've been totally lazy, and I've been eating loads. Put on about a stone and a half... :( I'm now officially a fat git... :omg:

                                        oooo, the Jedi's will feel this one....

                                        Hmm, not bad only 21 pounds (Stone Weight[^]). I put about 20 on in two weeks when I went on a crazy pastry eating frenzy. But I am slim, so I got a belly...

                                          I thought when I would visit the Lounge around the 31st Dec, I would be able to see some new year resolutions being posted here. To my surprise there are none. So lets start now. What are your resolutions for this new year. I will post mine - Loose weight. Sounds funny, but its true. Software development job (sitting job without no movement / physical activities) can help you gain weight quickly ! Your thoughts are welcome !!!! [Edit] : Forgot to wish all CPians and there families a very happy and prosperous new year ! May your coding skills sharpen this year and we see a rise in world economy again.

                                          Here is my humble resolution: Not to abuse anything that will in turn end up abusing me
