New Years Resolutions, Let's here 'em. - Page 3

mark300 · 29-12-2010, 09:00 PM

1. do more work to the falcon
2. train harder at my sports and try and do some winning for a change
3. save some money to go overseas

unfortunately points 1 and 3 dont go too well together!

-accept overtime when my boss offers it, rather than sleeping in long (evening shift means i go in early for my overtime)
-save money ahead of time for rego/insurance/servicing rather than blowing out the credit card every time
-buy a PVR, or at least a bloody vcr before the footy season...i have no foxtel, so saturday & monday games i miss...and due to working friday nights i miss every friday game
- let the hair &/or beard keep growing...always wanted to get both/either nice & long, but grooming got in the way for one reason or another

My theory work's like this : 1 marige = my new TS50
Get Fast cars/projects shed time and broken bits wirten into the wedding vows.

Never ever EVER pay the credit car off (keep limiet low) a little bit of interest V constant trips to the shops you see what will cost you more.

Keep talking about the next car/motor/tune/manifold/mags ect so when ever you here "we need ......." you reply with "but we don't have the money becuse ....."

And my last tip occasunaly fold and give in on the small afordable bits a pices she wants

so that when the big dollar F&*K off items come along on the wish list you can fall back on "but we(you) already got ..... last month"

LEARN HOW TO SAVE MONEY. That is essential lol. I wanna go on a 5-6 week trip to Europe and i'll probably have to move out some time next year too so its going to be tough!

Buy a Postie bike and do it up Cafe Racer style but painted purple with the number plates Haze

Wish I had that, mine is only 1280×1024.

Seriously though. Next year I want to be a little more fitter than I am now, not that I have any weight to lose, just need to spend some more time training. That's all I can think of for now.

this thread touched me mate . i hope it works out . partnership is not easy mate give it all you can if you havent already .women go through some BIZZAAR stages just as we do , and they can be trained , just as we can your kids will thank you for it . however your kids will love you to death regardless . dont mean to pry . just letting you know sometimes the harder option- getting back together can be worth it . please dont take offense .

Sam_Boss260 · 30-12-2010, 11:23 PM

Get on track financially. Knuckle down with work and try to make some serious coin and get back on track.

Windsor220 · 30-12-2010, 11:56 PM

1. Career change
2. Maybe try and get into a relationship for the first time in my life
3. Take a holiday overseas

Riksta · 31-12-2010, 12:50 AM

I actually meant it when I said my NY Resolution was 1920x1080.

That is, to sit around home, watching more Blu Ray movies and (god forbid) TV, in a bit to keep myself from going out cruising and spending money on fuel every night of the week. Might also keep me from being less tired when I wake up in the morning!

Also, the usual resolutions that I always make & break. See how I go this time around hey!

Plus, MORE DALEKS. There can never be too much of Davros' great creation. Long live the superior beings!

You're mad.

**Mechan1k** · 31-12-2010, 01:41 AM

Eat less
Move more
try and balance house mods with car mods
Spend as much time with my family as I can.

**TUF_302** · 31-12-2010, 10:27 AM

Meet my 1st child for the first time!

Thanks mate, no offense taken at all! At the end of the day it was my decision after several years of being unhappy. We seperated with the intention of continueing counselling and seeing how things panned out after some time apart. Sadly a couple of weeks after she moved out she decided that she fancied some guy at work! Makes me feel a little bit less of an ******* for asking her to move out, hahaha..

Sorry for off topic..

1) Stay healthy, and continue to hit the weights hard! Also need to run more to improve my squash game...
2) Enjoy the company of friends and family
3) Save more money so I can finally go overseas. I haven't been overseas since I was 4 years old, and now I'm 25!!
4) Bang as many girls from the ages of 18-40
5) Save my cash for a house later in the year!

3 and 5 kind of contradict themselves, but I can achieve these goals if I'm disciplined enough.

Happy new year to all on AFF!!!

No worries, I am always looking for someone to do a bit of anchor and sail work while I concentrate on the important stuff...

**russellw** · 31-12-2010, 01:46 PM

Mine are simple enough -

1. Eat more
2. Work more
3. Attend as many of the State based AFD's as possible.

Cheers
Russ

Geez Louise · 31-12-2010, 02:26 PM

Mine are pretty simple as well...

Listen more and talk less
Eat less
Work less
Have my coupe finished before 31st December 2011.

This one works really well - I got the other half a puppy (and its a foster one so we wont even have it after another week) and now I'm allowed to get wheels for the ute. Win win!

overhauling the AU ... you would have to have the shiniest example known to man ... you'll have to have a mirror finish to it when it is completed (like that black VL in your youtube vids)

SVR73 · 01-01-2011, 10:31 AM

G'day champ.

no this is a mechanical overhaul not a polishing one.

bingoTE50 · 01-01-2011, 12:06 PM

Keep this job for 12 months.
2 year plan of being fitter at 50 than I was at 40 ,which I was fitter than I was at 30 ,so I am looking to turn the clock back 20 years. But I was fitter at twenty than I was at thirty so maybe I will be as fit at 50 as I was when I was twenty ...
Simple really ..

SM1DY · 01-01-2011, 02:03 PM

Rock It!

Riksta · 01-01-2011, 02:39 PM

So who's broken resolutions already? Own up!
