Default Post 3 New Year's Resolutions

None of this "I don't make resolutions" BS. Just post three obtainable goals to accomplish this year.

I'll start.

For 2011, I plan to:

1. Run another half-marathon

2. Get a better job that pays more and offers personal satisfaction. (a significant compensation increase will suffice for both)

3. Limit erroneous spending and pay off a significant portion of our debt (student loans, car and cc.

From now until June I want to drop about 50lbs, from June to December about another 15-20lbs. And by doing so, I'll be cutting out soda, desserts and eating late at night.

Here's my opinion: if you have to wait til the end of the year to do something your not gonna follow through with it.

1: Pay off the rest of my debt to the state (I have been paying for 2 years)
2:Find a newer car, as cheap as possible.
3: Find a new apartment, that isn't a peice of crap.

the last two require the first, and the second should happen when i get my tax return...

So, hopefully we should have smooth sailing for 2011.
