To get a life... and maybe spend some more time learning AGS, and playing more games and sitting more in front of the PC in general.

To get out more. I think I've forgotten what fresh air tastes like. And maybe exercise a bit more too while I'm at it.

i think if you can taste the air it's safe to say that it isn't fresh...

haddas, can i steal learning AGS from you?

QuoteHave something to show for mittens 05? :

I hear that!! I've been saving plane ticket money, but I haven't made a game yet! Maybe by April 26th I'll have a small one made. Perhaps partially at least.

Mittens is alleged to be in Brisbane this year, but has it been decided precisely what dates it will be?

Oh, resolutions...umm... I'd like to start making my "Asinine Allstars" ags game (after lurking the forums for 2 1/2 years), watch a new Joss Whedon show, try at least a one year stint as a vegetarian (I tried this once but became sick of Doritos), and increase my grade point average.

As for me, well I think I want to work out whats happening with my long distance relationship with my girlfriend. I also want to become more independent and be able to look after things for myself. Um what else... I want to learn guitar more, and write songs with words, oh and to learn to sing...

Hmm thats probably enough for now.

It'll be jan 2 in about half an hour, well into this year already.

I'm still recovering from last night, I didn't even notice when it hit midnight, but I do remember trying to call people and not being able to get through as everyone in town was on the phone at the same time.

as for resolutions, I never make them, but I should, well atleast quit smoking before I'm 30

Also, I'm planning not to let people down again promising them to animate this and that.
And finish the games/graphics I promised to.
And stop wrecking my health (which i do by quitting the job).
And haul my lazy ass to school again.
And get smart, certificated and rich.
And materially secured.
And get a life.
And a new girlfriend.
And...
Er...

Damn...
And get at least one thing from this list really done.

I haven't posted in awhile, but this seems like a good one to get back in the swing of things with.
Besides resolving to finish one of the many games I started last fall and never quite completed, this year's resolution would have to be to make a little more time for myself and learn to tell other people no.Ã,  I'm volunteered for everything that has to be dealt with regarding my journalism staff because I'm the associate editor and we can't expect our editor-in-chief (or the staff writers) to actually do anything themselves, can we?Ã,  Ã, ::)Ã,  So I always have a stack of extra work to do that could easily be divided up amongst everyone else and accomplished much more quickly.Ã,  I don't know how many days I've pulled on two hours of sleep because I was doing something that someone else could be doing--all because they didn't feel like doing it themselves.Ã, 
So yes, my resolution is to put a stop to that kind of thing and actually have some time for doing other stuff--like finishing that novel I'm writing or even my first game for AGS.Ã,  :)

Same here as well. I wonder if it is a thing with AGSers and procrastination? Probably not with all of them, otherwise new versions of AGS would never come out.
Other than that, my resolutions are:
*Exercise more
*Go on more hiking trips
*Get a social life

My New Years Resolution is to finish MIA.....

Jaz and Geoffkhan had put a lot of work into the game as well as myself and it would be a shame not to complete the game.....

Even though i am making it i still find it fun to play....(Blowing up everything with grenades...)

Also another New Years Resolution is to stop using so many  "........................................"....

That `ll be the hardest to stick to.............shit.....i just did it.......

Hmm... I'm going to try and get a game or two out this year. Stupid college, taking up all my time. Sooo...
A GAME IN '05! You can count on it. Just look at my track record. Vote for me.

My resoloution has been the same for every year; to finally realize my goals. I have ideas and imagest hat are so specific and wonderful, and have goals that are realistic and achievable, yet I run out of steam to quickly. Other resoloutions of mine are to be more active, patient, and take the time to learn new things and experience new experiences. I always have a problem of going out of my comfort zone.
