Two new year's resolutions: More activity on CA because this has been a good place for me.
And college! Gotta stay on track for welding degrees
New Years Resolutions: Basically to do everything right that went wrong in the past few years, like making new real life friends because most of the current ones are online and going out more often, instead of playing games at home. But I also want to try to continue with my education and get a well paid job this year!
frosty went and made this basalt face a while ago, resizing blobbed her signature, sorry frosty
//the whole >40 hours a week, home upkeep, and 10 credit hours a semester thing is kind of killing me, but that's okay.
//kind of a 3-for-1 on the resolution. when my pops died, i lost my motivation to learn polish, but i started picking up ASL last year, and i'm working/schooling so hekken much, i may as well go whole ham on learning polish, ASL, and nursing courses. make me a right proper educated gentleman while i'm at it, why not?
//i wasn't doing very much miniature painting anyways, but, hey, let's see if i can't get my knight preceptor canis rex fully magnetized and painted before 2021, be a shame if his battle brothers never got their fire support.
I don't have photoshop and am bad on paint so ya I can't do a ornament of a meme.
Ah, here's my little submission, why not.
If I had more free time and some kind of inspiration, it would look much better.
First off, quick New Year's resolution tip:
Keep your goals specific, and start your sentences with "I will". Instead of saying "I plan on loosing weight," say something like "I will start running five miles a week" or "I will only eat 2,000 calories a day". This helps you by giving you a specific task to focus on, and internalizes the goal as part of your routine instead of being a vague promise of something you want to do eventually.
And with that out of the way, here's my highest priority resolution for the next three months:
I will create a simple portfolio website to demonstrate that I am capable of using HTML, CSS, PHP, SQL, and JavaScript in web design (plus whatever technologies I discover I will need along the way). This website won't be a huge passion project, rather the website will be a demo to show that I understand concepts essential to modern web development (Responsive Design, C.R.U.D, etc...). Since I have historically dived head first into programming projects with little to no planning, I will spend the first two weeks of January planning the site. Since I literally just got prescribed ADHD medication for the first time like 12 hours before writing this, I'll set reminder bot on discord now to remind me in a week and a half to assess the effects of the medication and create a more concrete time investment plan based on what seems reasonable after understanding the drug's effects on my mind, and another reminder in three weeks to assess if that time investment is working.
one is for my mind to make up it mind about what oc I will be using. another is for trolling people for a joke but, not go too far about the joke.
add some HATE to your tree this year!
Also my new year's resolution is to spend MUCH, less time on the pc and doing other stuff
I don't really know if I do have much of a resolution for the year, things have been going good so far. I guess it'd be to try to keep the momentum I have on things, keep the cursed pace I have in [/i] since I have a course I do actually like.
my new years resolution is mainly to keep in better with my friends, and hang out with them a lot more, clear any outstanding debts i have and finally buy some commission pieces so that people can see what my oc's actually look like.
My new year's resolution is to continue to get better as a person. I want to continue drawing, I want to eat better and be healthier, to be a better friend and lover, to continue to educate myself and learn new skills, to be a better sister and daughter and of course to discover more things. This year I found love and nourished wonderful friendships and these two elements have made this year wonderful for me, it was a year full of good surprises and growth. I can happily say that 2019 was a wholesome year for me, there were rough patches of course, but everything that was good was stronger and has left me feeling satisfied over all. I'm grateful for this year and look forward to the future. <3

Happy Holidays!
My new years resolution is to become more determined and driven, something that now, i lack. I want to try and push myself into doing things like cleaning the house, maintaining my truck, taking my courses seriously. I will try to become more self sufficient and able to push myself to do better for myself
I'm stifled in terms of art, so I'm just gonna write, I'm good at it.
I got two New Year's resolutions: The first is to stop being such a bitch on all fronts. I mean it forreal-both in terms of attitude, and in terms of fear. Sometimes these are connected. I am mean or treat people a certain way because I believe that friendship won't last and that I'm not a great person. But perhaps I just have too much trauma I can't let go of and need to, in order to move forward. So many people here have reached out to me and made friendships. I love you all...thank you for putting up with me.
And in addition, I am going to stop holding back in terms of making myself look and feel the best I can-which leads to my second point-positivity. No more suicide jokes, no more self-deprecating jokes, no more negative outlook. And I expect the best from everyone else too. We're all going to lift each other up.
I look forward to bringing you all more exciting RP and terrible memes in the future, thanks for being here with me.
I did both because I'm extra:
My New Year's revolution is to be more active and outspoken. I'm going to try and be more social and less introverted. So, I want to make more friends, hang out more and TRY to be less rude and grumpy. I akso want to work on my anger so I could be more peaceful and not let little things irritate me so much. I guess I want to break my shell and just be more open with other people. I think that it'll match my personality a little more.
I didn't know what else to put so I just put a mail package from DragonFly's mail service.
1st resolution?: Umm... Well I need to start working out more. Due to a family situation I haven't had much time and I need to get back into it so I'm not being a lazy idle malingerer (Even if it's a family emergency I still need to start doing more for myself)
2nd resolution: Interaction CA more
I'm retyping mine. Have an essay
I'm not doing the globe still though, that's too much work.
Okay, so I'm gonna be an over achiever here, and just ramble.
Like I stated in the first one, my first resolution is to lose weight. I've always struggled with my weight growing up. I finally got the drive to do something after being diagnosed with pre-diabetes. I've been talking to a dietician, and really watching my meals. I've lost 21 lbs. so I'm really excited for the future. I'm finally gonna get my glowup biiiitch.
My second resolution. I want to get better with my art. I want to love drawing again!! I've been starting to really enjoy drawing, and I want to keep that up. If I open commissions, I really need to develop a schedule, so I don't burn myself out again. I think taking on so many commissions at a time without drawing for myself really dwindled my love for art. So, I'm going to limit myself to slots, AND give myself days to draw whatever I want. I'm not a robot, and I should be able to take a break for myself.
My last resolution? I just want to be happy.
I'm going to try and really work on my mental health. I've been trying to motivate myself in taking the first seeing a therapist. It's really scary for me. I have A LOT of baggage that I need to sift through. I'm tired of being angry or depressed all the time. I miss smiling, and really enjoying life.
Now for the gooey bits, hey bitches.
This year had very many ups and downs, but I can say I wasn't homeless this year. It's been one entire year of having a home. (I left Nebraska to come to Washington for help with housing, and 2 fat ass cats. I'm really living the life.)
I really miss my home, the small town I'm in isn't my thing.
Okay really really, now to express my appreciation.
I hate this site, and I dislike the founder with a fiery passion, but I can say I've met some wonderful people on here.
My friend circle is holding strong, and I've made new friends/peers this year. You're all wonderful people, and honestly? You guys make this site super enjoyable.
JayJay- you stinky bitch. I love you.
Cally- F u. We clicked really fast, you're super cool <3
Lev- You grumpy boy you're a gooder
I hope I can make more friends this coming 2020, and I hope you all have a great year.
Ofc Honorable mentions for the best people ever:
Chubs- I love you so much. We've been friends for so long, and I thrive. You're so good. You keep me sane. You hear this a thousand times everyday, so I have to make sure you know this a thousand times more. I don't think I could survive without you tbh.
Phoenix- Hey idiot, I'm glad we're friends. Even if I want to karate chop you in the forehead. I love playing games with you even if I'm not good at them. No matter how much attitude I give you always have retorts, or just tolerate me. I can't thank you enough. I love our arguments, and tbh I just love you.
Oni- You're such a sweetheart. I think 2019 is the year I first heard your voice. It made me really happy. I've been waiting literal years to hear your cute voice and I'm not disappointed. I'm so glad you're in our group, and I'm glad you make Phoenix happy. Even if you keep switching your names and roles I will seriously fight you both
Zah- Hiiii Zah ♥♥♥ I'm also glad you're apart of this group. I am still spooked by you. You have a very intimidating presence, but I'm really happy you like me because i love you. I like hanging out with you.
Medal- We've also been friends for years. I love watching your personal growth, and you're always there when I need to talk. You're so fun to talk to. Literally hours pass by, and it's always surreal when we end up staying up till like 7am. I can't wait to hang out. I've been looking forward to it since you moved closer. I just wanna give you a big hug. Keep kicking ass, and never apologize for being on that grind. Being your friend is just enough for me.
Oh yeah, I also got me a girlfriend in 2019. It's my year, huh????
Frosty- HI YOU'RE MY GIRLFRIEND. EVERYONE, FROSTY IF MY IRL GIRLFRIEND. I've been holding that in for a bit, but it feels really nice. I was gonna draw our sonas smooching (i still will), but this is great too. I love you cutes. You're the best, and I'm really happy I can call you my gf. It's gonna be almost a year since we met up time flies :thesobsobdog: I can't wait to live with you. The apple of eye. Even though you don't like movies much I appreciate you watching them with me. If you ever wanna game :eyes: lemme know I'll try for you. iay smooch smooch
I can't wait for that moment where all of us can meet up, and hang out. It'll take some time, but I look forward to it. I want to hug all of you!!! Then we can play board games, and just do whatever. That'd be a great time.
