Els, as someone who's been terrified of learning to drive for years and has literally just obtained a license, let me tell you: Get someone you trust, sit behind the wheel, and have them tell you which directions to go. Pick a small neighborhood where there won't be much traffic and you won'tbe going above 20 miles per hour. Just drive basically in circles for a few hours. It's what got me to open up to driving more and not be quite so terrified of it. I mean I'm still scared of it. But I drive by myself now, back and forth to work and to the store and what not. |

This was pretty much how my dad taught me. We started out in the high school parking lot on weekends when nobody was there, so I could putter around as slow as possible and learn about starting/stopping the car, turning, and parking. Once I was comfortable with that we switched to a neighborhood so I could go a little faster and learn about street signs and unexpected obstructions (nobody obeys doggy leash laws in our neighborhood). Once I was comfortable with that we went on roads with low speed limits, and then roads with higher speed limits. Freeways were last. Then we started all over from the high school parking lot so I could learn to work a manual transmission because my parents weren't going to let me take the good car to college. - - - Oh, right, guess I should share my resolutions. They're pretty much the usual: - Be healthy. More veggies, more exercise, less bacon and cheese. - Love myself more, and work on accepting that I'm not a terrible person for making mistakes. - Get my hobby sh*t sorted out. Seriously, I'm up to my eyeballs in things I started ages ago and gave up right away. - Keep my job going smoothly. Leave my desk if my coworkers start picking on me, emergency chocolates and tea in the desk drawer, stop sassing the Inventory personnel just because they sassed me. - In keeping with the above "not a terrible person for making mistakes", I need to also remember that I'm not a terrible person for asking stupid questions if I don't know the answer. |

1. Get my own place, rent or buying don't care. 2. Make efforts to improve my relationship with my sister in law. 3. Get better at cooking and thus eat more healthily. 4. Resume my running exercises. 5. Be better at saving money. 6. Build up friendships with my work colleagues and explore other avenues to get to know more people, i.e the game store opposite us at work has some cool peeps in there. 7. Get into more books, films and TV shows. |

1. I did exercise some way, some how - mostly choosing to walk for errands and some biking on country roads during warm weather. 2. This happened. Partly just from getting older and also from being married. 3. Did a good job of this... SO FAR 4. Did this on paper and drew numerous renditions of our triangle cat on the fridge dry erase board. |

1. I did more of both, but the ratio hasn't changed at all. I wrote more than I have in previous years, thanks solely to NaNo, but a new gaming PC, plus a huge backlog, doomed this resolution from the start. 2. My reading for this year was negligible. 3. Did not happen. 4. Making decent progress on this one. 5. I think this has started to happen? Definitely posting a little more but I still find myself keeping to a select range of topics. 6. Music-writing happened, but I have no means of recording it anymore. I did write some midi tunes that I can export to wav. format, however, so not all was lost. 7. Went to Boston for a few days in August for a concert, so...partial success? 8. Success! |

- Yuuup definitely, my Japanese is way above where it was at this point. - I wrote most of a novel? For NaNo. About 70% done, I think - Possibly! I'm working on the letter to the publisher now and a selection, but they've expressed interest. - Yup, did this. - Didn't do this, timing is super awkward and I didn't want to drop several hundred dollars on what would effectively be a one-day trip to Tokyo. Yay responsibility, I guess? - I did a bit of research, but applications were just too overwhelming and I'm unprepared (especially without my library to reference). So postponing admission til 2017. - I did do this, and ofc, nothing. But I did find a few jobs I am qualified for that pay almost as well as my current one. Kinda. - I am always gud |

Nope Foiled by summer job. Going to Toronto in May instead. Tried judo class in fall. Didn't follow through since class requirement was to be able to run a mile which is a completely bullshit prerequisite for an indoor class. Non-cat friendly in 2016. Nope Quit and may pick up again since going to be closer to campus. Nope |

-NOPE, though I did just get some vitamins recently. We'll see how long this lasts -Well I did get the applications in, but I am not on top of things. Not at all. -NOPE. I didn't end up auditioning for anything. At this point. I just don't have time -NOPE. >.< -yup! but that's probably more of a I'm in grad school now thing than the intention that I probably had, but eh. -Not regularly, but I have occasionally been working on a bit recently....still want to draw more. -NOPE TO THE FIRST ONE. Me and a friend have plans to learn to crochet together and then we get buried under work. Kinda to the second. Keychains didn't really work out, but I've started experimenting with barrettes. -NOPE. I did get the row I have been working on for over a year done though so some progress. I've also made some more bookmarks and stuff but not really any of the projects I have on my blog. -I have made more friends so yay. Still feel like I need to talk more. I did get in contact with a couple friends who I had lost contact with thanks to their wedding and I got to see them again recently ^_^ |
