Resolutions
It’s that time of year again! Here are some of the things I want to accomplish in Our Year of Bond, James Bond.
007, get it? Anyhow:
- Get out of the house more, and that does not include online worlds.
- Pick a new MP3 player
- Actually go to the gym that I pay $40 a month for (plus $5 towel service I don’t use).
- Get really good at Gears of War on Live.
- Ride my bike places.
- Cook at home more instead of eating out.
- Learn to cook.
- Start working on at least some of the projects in my head.
- Read some books that aren’t in the fantasy genre.
- Go on a serious vacation.
- Get a better camera and learn to take better photos.
- Make more friends.
- Have Buzz Out Loud become more popular than TWiT or Diggnation! Haha. Yeah right.
- Travel for work more.
- Get a decent haircut.
I’m sure I’ll think of some more later. How about you? What’s on your lists?

1: Give more to charity, or rather, be fairer in my donations. I give money every Christmas to a local cat shelter, but I feel I should be less bias towards cats and maybe help the odd hungry child too.
2: Own every Ghibli film. I’m 10 short of the complete set atm =(
3: Spend more than 4 hours a week at the gym, especially since it’s free where I work.
4: Listen to one podcast that has nothing to do with tech.
5: Eat spinach. It’s rancid but I want to be Popeye.
6: (re: your post) Get better at Gears. Insane is living up to its name.Happy New Year!

Veronica Belmont, Curb Stomper ladies and gents…
Seriously, I’ve recently had a little time with Gears. It’s interesting. I hear there are two words that be your bestest friends: blind fire. It appears to be true and that’s all i’m saying. For the past couple of years, i’ve resolved not to make resolutions and that been working for me. However, I do want to keep away from listening to the radio (easy enough) and stay deep into good music. I fell off in ’06 and I want that back. More gaming and (some actual) travel, also. Would have loved to be at CES. Any introspective type WIP’s, i’m still working on.
Happy New Year, all!

Interestingly, we have a lot in common, but I suppose that may be said for most nerds in general.
1.definitely
3. I’m actually getting pretty good at that. BTW in NYC it’s $135/mo.
4.I think I’m getting pretty good at Gears on Live. I’m “modelizer” (kind of a bad joke, but most don’t get it and it’s my old PS2/killzone name) on live if anyone wants to add me (I only have 2 friends). I just picked up the Vision kit for the 360 so I’m gonna try to add my real face to my Gears Character if it lets me.
5.done. but someone just stole my tire. I’ll be out again once it’s above 60F.
6.totally
9.For me, read some books, period. I’m not sure if you are a Farscape fan, but you should read Farscape: House of Cards. Yeah it’s Sci-fi, but it’s not Fantasy, right? (I hope that html turns out ok…)
12.see #4
14.totally, and get a new agent to help me do that.
15.too late for me

Theres mine:
* Don’t Break anything. (that will be the hardest one)
* Listen to one NON Technology Podcast.
* Make more of my own podcasts, I said one a week and then one a month, now I’m down to one a year. LOL
* Bring my Lunch to school twice a week.
* Clean up my Locker and Binder. LOL Like thats gonna Happen.
* Get a haircut that I like. (I hate my hair no matter what it looks like)
* Make more blog entries.
* Start making and editing video.
* HTML?? -
Have Buzz Out Loud become more popular than TWiT or Diggnation! Haha. Yeah right.
Well you’ve already got a better show than TWiT or Diggnation, seriously I just can’t sit through either of those two shows. I don’t know what it is but they just bore me to tears! I’ll take a good Molly rant or Merrit geek out over anything that TWiT or Diggnation puts out.
Now I’ll build off of that accomplishment for myself, I want to figure out how to get my podcast (intentionally not linked to in this post) featured in iTunes for it’s category… Anybody got an suggestions, or maybe an “in” on Infinite Loop?

I hate making new years resolutions.
I dont need an entire year to do something.
PPL just use it as an excuse to not do stuff! The way I look at it, ppl make resolutions and then spend the rest of the year not doing anything about it because in their head its like… i got the entire year to do this stuff.
ooooooooo snap !

Will it not be an iPod? lol. I need to get a new one myself, but I am waiting for Macworld to be over before I do anything.
I would teach you how to cook, if I lived in California, but I don’t, damn =/ lol
Also need to get a new camera, but there is nothing good at there anymore !!!
Friends are overrated, that said, I am surprised you do not have millions of friends, who wouldn’t want to be your friend?
Buzz Out Loud will probably never beat Diggnation (sry), but you have a chance at beating Twit, I think Buzz Out Loud is easily the best audio podcast out there.
and last time I checked, which was just now, your her looks better than fine, no need to change it, but hey that’s just my opinion, what’s most important is that you are happy.
OK now I am done, I will post my New Year’s Resolutions later.
Bye
