Belated post, as we are already in the 6th week of 2011.. but I guess that makes “to not procrastinate” an easy addition to my New Year’s Resolution for 2011!
In full recognition of my fickleness and lack of attention span *ooooh, butterfly*…..
….I have decided to breakdown my New Year’s resolution into easier-to-digest, bite-size proportions. Similar to those bags of tiny Snickers bar that I buy instead of the full-sized ones in the hopes that I can better proportion my snack cravings and hence stick to my diet plans, these tiny resolutions I hope will be easier to keep track of and (hopefully) accomplish. And thus, I hope, I will come out of 2011 as a better, happier, healthier me. At least, that’s the plan.
And this is how it shall work: I will list down 12 mini-resolutions, and each month I will try to accomplish one of them. Just one. I won’t assign which goal should be done in which month; instead, I will give that freedom to my future self to judge the time/opportunity that best matches a particular goal. Also, some of the goals are actually more of a wish, but ah well
Without further ado, my wish-list to-do list for 2011 is:
1. Travel more
2. Procrastinate less
3. Start (and keep!) a personal budget plan
4. Buy a house
5. Learn more about my religion
6. Fall in love
7. Get an Advanced Diver’s License
8. Learn how to drive a manual
9. Join a charity
10. Learn how to play a new music instrument
11. Write more
12. Make amends with my past
13. Treat my family to a holiday *extra credit*
And so there it is… Let’s see how well/badly I would have done by 31 December 2011

That’s why it’s something of a wish list as well
For #4, I’ve went on several “house-scouting” trips with my mom.. nothing serious, but already looking. Haven’t yet found “the one”, and as we’re already in July (yikes!), I may have to step up this house-search.
For #6, ah… pray?
