Framboise? No.

I go for a good Stella myself. Or some Carlsberg.

I got pretty drunk, on Budweiser. Damn American beer :P But it was all my friend had!

I would never put publishing as a resolution, because it's a bit out of your hands, to be honest. I like to put things that are within arm's reach.

So how's everyone doing with their resolutions thus far? So far I've kept to my promise of running three miles a day, and I have not touched a single doughnut so far in this new year!

Um...what were my resolutions again? lol, yeah, now I remember. I finished the first draft of one novel (two to go!), my skin has cleared up, sleep...eh....better than before I suppose, and report cards come out in about a week. So, pretty good so far! :D

No doughnuts, Nate?! :shock: That has to take a lot of willpower. I'm very impressed.

I have lost three pounds, my skin is as horrible as ever, but my plans for moving are going along nicely.

So....

Huzzah.
I'm not even angry... I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me... And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.

I've practically failed all mine. Funnily enough, today is supposed to be the day when everyone realises they failed their resolutions.

1) Do Maths Homework - Nope.

2) Finish Novel - Not yet, and I haven't done any recently, so this isn't looking good.

3) Be more optimistic - Hah, no. I'm really doom and gloom at the minute.

4) Enjoy life more - No. I liked life more before I did that resolution.

Ugh. Same here. So far, though, I'm doing pretty well with my resolutions. I've been enjoying life and writing a lot.. But there's still that one thing that always gets to me, you know? Grah. Ex-boyfriends suck.

Mine are:

1: Keep up with my diarys
2: Keep my room clean

And the most important to me of all:

3: Sing and learn how to sing so I can do what I want in life

[Firearris] 10:46 pm: aquires the weasel and renames it "Cat"

Take that, Lumi.

Happy New Year[s]! Fireworks this year weren't so great.

1 — Finish Are You Me? 'cause those characters are giving me a headache.

2 — Get something published.

3 — Complete college courses.

4 — Get a job.

Urgh, resolutions.

I have two that I can think of as of this moment in time:

1. Lose weight and get fitter
2. At least start my novel

Oh, and one more:

3. Get at least a B (and preferably an A/A*) in all subjects in GCSEs (except for Welsh, 'cause it's useless, no one cares about it, and the highest I can get in that is a C by default, anyway)

There's always been a lot of tension between Lois and me, and it's not so much that I want to kill her, it's just, I want her to not be alive anymore.

Mine shall be -

1. Work harder. Get at least two A's in my exams and, not including further maths, nothing below a B.
2. Finish a second novel, preferably the one my sister and I started yesterday.
3. Have a stable relationship.
4. Attempt to get a novel published.
5. Reach five red stars before the fifteenth of May.
6. Don't get nervous or stressed and therefore avoid the old habit of biting my nails.

Happy New Years!

Well, for my resolutions...

1) I just hope to enjoy being sixteen, which starts tomorrow! Yay me!
2) I plan on finishing Sandriel: The Legend and starting my vampire story, Secrets of Midnight.
3) I will stay out of trouble and get closer to God!

Hope everyone is enjoying New Years!!

I got pretty drunk, on Budweiser. Damn American beer Razz But it was all my friend had!
Haha, support the company! (my father works for them, as you might remember? If you come to MO we'll get you free beer! :-p)

I didn't really.. think up any resolutions so I suppose I will try to now.

1. Seriously devote time to school, instead of pretending to try and failing.
2. Learn to write essays without panicking before hand.
3. Go to Nebraska (or bring Sam here).
4. Go to Pennsylvania.
5. Try to have a friendship with my mother.

I think I only have control over two of those... haha.
