Some purpose amidst the aimlessness...
I just realised how incredibly bad I am at making any sort of resolutions, New Years ones or any other. I had forgotten about Lent this year until at the beach with some friends from England, 3 days before Easter Sunday. I offered them some chocolate and the reply I received was that they had given it up, for Lent. LENT!!??
It's not that I can't stick to resolutions, I just never get round to making them, or I forget that I'm supposed to make them. So for the first time ever I am going to give myself something to work towards, and hopefully I will stick to them.
Post-Exam Resolutions:- Eat less - there will be no excuse for comfort eating (ha ha)
- Exercise more - i will no longer be "studying" all the time
- Be friendier to Yaeesh's cousins & other numbered Jihads. They don't mean to be annoying.
- Do not take anger out on brother
- Be nice to brother
- Listen to what Luke is saying even if it doesn't interest me ;-)
- Remember what I tell people so that they do not have to hear my stories 100 times over
- Enjoy the freedom while it lasts, do things i usually wouldn't and be adventurous
- Be patient with the very (very) few that piss me off
- Spend as much time out of Colombo with friends as I can, starting with the trip to Chrissy's estate
- Re-introduce myself to the TV, and find a TV series that I like. Try not to get too pissed off with all the adverts that decide to pop up just as the the programme is getting interesting

- Get some work experience somewhere, anywhere!!
- Spend as much time as i can with people that are leaving
