I know I've probably done this a thousand times before, and it kinda never really worked out
But I still want to type it out, simply because I have a good feeling about this
So here it is, my new term resolution:
1. Focus on school and achieve what I consider as reasonable standards for myself
I never really compete with anyone else, it's always been a challenge for myself to do better, and I will have to try harder next term. I need to redirect the focal point of my school life and turn the studying up by a lot. Yes, I do plan on being a nerd next term =)
2. Get a part-time job and earn enough money for that thing I want
So to reward myself after a hardworking study term, I am planning on going to Dominica for Christmas. Yes it is just a thought and yes it may not happen due to unanticipated factors (work schedule, time, etc.), however, I have to work first and have enough money for it to begin with. I am working on this already, interview with the Bookstore and hopefully I will get it and start saving for a little. It'd be best if I get other jobs as well, just to be safe about the sufficient fund I might need if the trip is happening.
3. Make friends, not boyfriends
I've witnessed enough unhappy events associated with boyfriends my friends have/had. I know I've been really crazy and obsessed lately about this one person, but I do think I know better to not get involved unless it's absolutely right and one hundred percent certain. I am going to keep on expanding my social network circle and meet more great friends in school. At the mean time, I will keep everything strictly "friend-ly". No targets, no liking, no nothing. I am only 20 and I've got lots of time in the near future to meet the right person, at the right time too.
I will try to evaluate my achievements at the end of the term. Hopefully in 4 months time, everything will go according to my plan. I am not going to lie, I do look forward to this one =)
