- That WA. should wake up before 10AM most days
- That WA. should not hunch like a demoralized Quasimodo over her computer for more than 5 hrs a day.
- That WA.’s leg hair should not exceed 1/4 inch.
- That WA. will not let her eyebrows metastasize across her forehead (though…Peter Gallagher as a twentysomething female Asian grad student? Kinda hot).
- That WA. will not doodle pictures of her classmates as 19th century presidents in class.
Doable? Infinitely doable.
Decided not to attempt any unrealistic goals this year. I can do all of the above. I think. But out of respect for my friends with more exalted resolutions, I’m also going to give the following a half-assed go: 1) eat more fruits and veggies. 2) go to ballet at least 3x a week 3) do the readings for class 4) wash hair regularly 5) recycle.
Of #3…I remember those hallowed undergraduate days, when I carried out my goal of never reading a single book for my English classes. I managed to graduate with an honors major, no less, without reading a SINGLE novel for any of my lit courses. Xine will remember one instance when my desperate pre-class skimming actually saved me from the probing questions of our nose-picking drama professor. Of course, this legacy of non-reading is kind of biting my butt now.
But it’s a new year! Resolved: that it will be better than the last.
