Looks like it’s December 31 again. It’s the annual time to make bold assertions about one’s future by listing a number of impossible or improbable goals.

The topic of New Year’s Resolutions was chosen independently by James F and Ben K at Westwood HS.

Here’s my list:

1. Stop procrastinating. I do almost all my essays the night before they are due. Not good. Chance of success: 6.7%, especially considering my 2008 and 2009 resolutions have included the same.
2. Don’t play WoW. Chance of success: 18.4%
3. Read at least one novel. Chance of success: 99.99%, considering I’ve already started on one. And because I do actually read stuff.
4. Read as many things as I did in 2010. Chance of success: 8.9%, as college is actually super-busy and I did read a lot in 2010.
5. Edit my Nanowrimo novel at some point. Chance of success: 84%
6. Acquire sufficient knowledge of photography. Chance of success: 100% (“sufficient” is subjective)
