stick to a fitness regime

- Become independently financially stable
- Buy my own property
- Secure an apprenticeship

There's a couple things I want to achieve this year, some goals being tangible whereas others are more traditional;

  • Successfully build a prototype of one of my ideas (LegoInvestigations, LegoTown or BoxBreaker).
  • At the very, very least, create one mod for Blockland (most likely going to start with an ATC Comm./Autopilot mod for aircraft).
  • Produce a mod for a classic LEGO game (most likely a level pack for LegoRR).
  • Reduce spending of general goods (games, clothes, other crap) so that I'm saving a minimum of $400 weekly, while also paying weekly rent and food costs.
  • Get a promotion and pay raise from $23.50/h to permanent work at a minimum of $50/h (or the yearly salary equivalent).
  • Not shy out of any relationship prospects. Step 1 is to balls up and properly ask this chick to be in a relationship which I've been avoiding for a couple weeks.
  • Implement some kind of better diet by the end of the year, and reduce fast food (McDonalds, KFC etc) intake to once monthly or less.

I'm going to need to develop a tracker for all of these things...

i recall there being a neat google playstore app that was basically a to-do list but it treated everything like an RPG and it would "reward" you for accomplishing things.

but you could probably program something really nice for yourself that pushes all your buttons lol

Get a promotion and pay raise from $23.50/w to permanent work at a minimum of $50/w
$50 a loving week? is this a joke?

Incredibly, it's what every other contractor at the company is getting paid minimum. I underbid them, partly because I was new and didn't want to come off as greedy, and partly because I wasn't aware of what an appropriate rate was in Australia.

We have higher average salaries, but our taxes are higher (and the exchange rate with America is a lot lower). I have to pay off that $90k college debt somehow...

Im gonna try to put beef I have with people to rest.

Like my beef with enn, mostly from me overreacting and stuff. I just want to end all the beef I have.



I need to draw more and I need to learn how to draw humans beyond well
I'm considering a career in cartoons so that is basically required

I need to play guitar more
especially considering my music comp major and the artists I've been getting into (Rush, Yes, Genesis)

and I need to pay attention to schoolwork
I'm overloading this semester and I need to keep my grades up if I want to keep doing it
