New Year Resolutions

I’ve never really done the whole resolution thing for the start of a new year, but seeing as this is the first full year where I don’t have any Ph.D. to worry about (well, apart from the graduation in July!), I thought I’d think up a few and see how I get on.

So, in no particular order, here they are:

  • Be less lazy (aka. stop putting things off until “later”)
  • Get to know some people near where I live (because I just haven’t had time up to now!)
  • Build a scale model of Canterbury Cathedral in Lego (this will be the hardest of the lot!)
  • Walk the South West Coast Path (I’ve already started on this one having walked from Studland to Swanage yesterday - just another 623 miles to go!
  • Explore more of Dorset (it’s a big county and I’ve hardly seen any of it since moving here nearly two years ago)
  • Start saving for a deposit towards a house (and hope that the market doesn’t start recovering until the end of 2010!)

We shall see how far I get with these this time next year!
