New Years Resolutions
« on: December 23, 2008, 12:18:08 PM »
With 2009 quickly approaching, do you guys have any resolutions for the year?

Mine are:

1) Cut back computer time - I've already started doing this as you guys can probably tell (I'm not online as often)

2) Improving my social interaction by meeting new people, again I've improved on this quite well since the start of the school year, but I still need to work on this.

3) Straighten my teeth out by starting orthodontics. I've been due to get braces for nearly five years now and I have still yet to get them.

I don't "do" resolutions, but I would like to make a little extra money this year.

Do you mean "That's sick" as in "That's disgusting" or as in "That's cool"?

Or maybe as in "How can that not be good enough!".  :D

I'm planning to get my permit sometime next year, but as for your fear of talking to the girl you 'like', maybe in this case, I feel the same way as you, so maybe what if that girl rejects you or something, that's probably one reason I wouldn't prefer telling that one girl I like "I like you" or something. Either way, do what's best for you. Just giving you advice.

I may be doubting myself. Even as a sophomore, I am thinking about colleges and getting admitted into them.

I don't know about Derek, but in my case, that describes my problem to a T. I have so many doubts its not even funny. What if she laughs? What if she thinks I'm ugly? What if she already HAS a boyfriend? What if she just blows me off? I'm just afraid that I'll be humiliated or rejected.  :ninja:
