2008's been around for a month now, and the silly time of half-hearted resolutions is past. Its time for the serious ones. What are your projects for 2008?

I have two primary projects this year.

My first and most important one will be a devotion to my health and body. In 2006, I managed to lose several pounds, but found myself being a sloth in 2007 and while I did not gain it all, I've put some back on. All in all, I'm tired of being chubby, and saying it ain't gonna help it. For the last few days I've been doing some intensive studies on various body-building / fat-burning routines and after deciding which program is most attractive to me, I will be kicking off a 12 week program starting today.

Note : I'm really just doing this because I like to hear Maevie say I'm sexy. (:P)

My second project, which I've already tackled is recovering, and enhancing my artistic skills. I honestly don't know what the hell happened in 2007, but again, it was a sloth year and I didn't do any good art. Honestly, I think most of my favorite hobbies went out the window. So I've kicked off jep.sheezyart.com with 3 pieces and will continue to bust them out throughout the year. I can only hope that they get better.

So again, what are your projects?

1) Work on Deus Ex Nihilum and unfinish it. ... Ha!
2) Watch porn and finish... it. Ha!
3) Finally start swimming regularly. Just a few weeks I just realized how much I love swimming. I nearly drowned during that realization, but it was still ever so enlightening.

That's about it. Meh.

TODOA

Get on American Gladiators. Try out for Jeopardy. And new to the resolutions, is try to get into professional wrestling.

1. Work on Jep's butt.

I'd like to pay off my car this year... maybe maybe not... ~$9500 left.

Give more fit in general, apparently with Dud's help.

Make it through my second semester of uni without getting thrown out.

My buttshake brings all the boys to the yard,
And they're like, its better than ya'lls.
Damn right, its better than ya'lls.
I could teach you, but I'd hate to charge.

Get a job.

Jep - Look into Crossfit (http://www.crossfit.com). Trust me, it's exactly what you want and need, and it'll whip you into (better) shape, faster, than any other program out there.

If you want more info, you can email/IM me, and/or check out the website.

Oh, I need Tony's too.

Did that last year and it was a lot of fun! Haven't worked any shows yet. Learning to take bumps was one of the hardest things I've done.

That's only for manly men and womanly women.

However if you have access to the equipment it is faster and more effective than anything else. Lately I have been doing all dead lifts and side presses, with great results. All I need is a barbell! Wide stance dead lifts have tightened up my gorgeous *** even more as of late.

Graduate.

Get back into a real college.

This

And:
- Do well in school
- Get a girlfriend. (Might be happening soon)
- Either get my car tuned up or look for a new one. Poor little Jetta gets abused, and is starting to show it.
- Get out of some commitments at church. (Playing bass) Should be out of it by the end of the month.

I need to lose weight too, but my current full-time job / full-time school schedule, It would be very difficult to do right now. I plan to work on it after I graduate in July.

1.Finish all of the art work I've had floating around for the past year, before I am unable to work on it for a long long time.

2. writing down a decent plot outline for my book before I forget it all while I am unable to work on it.

3. Eat lots of delicious new kinds of food.

4. Clean my room.

1. relax
2. ???
3. Profit!

If it's a crappy new one, you get what you deserve.

If it's a boxy older one, they're indestructable. Just have a mechanic go through and give it a tune up. Be prepared to pay out the butt, you need a SERIOUS tune up.

If it were indestructible, it wouldn't need a tune-up.

Metal does wear out, obi-wan spicoli.

He probably needs new valves, belts, plugs, rebuilt carb, maybe maybe maybe new connecting rods and pistons if you want to be thorough, and some other stuff.

If you want indestructable, older toyota pickup. When I was looking for mine I saw one with 300 thousand miles on it that still ran well. mine has aproximately 150k on it, the odometer was tampered with by the redneck who sold it to me. But it runs well. So far, all I've had to replace were the front brakes. That cost about 80 dollars in parts. When the engine dies I plan on converting to diesel. >_>

build my hot rod and the new forum software I started planning for

It ran well because the work I had listed above had already been done, or was made to sound like it ran well.

200,000-300,000 miles is the threshold at which most car/truck engines wear or start to wear out and need alot of work, especially if regular maintenance was never performed at decent intervals.

1. Skydive more, not satisfied at 43 jumps.
2. Actually do my university work instead of doing the classic "I'll do it tomorrow line".
3. Eat healthy food.

Pretty acheivable if I stop procrastinating on the internet, and spend more than 10 minutes making dinner.

Try to get as close to below 200 lbs. by the end of the year (I've already dropped 40 from 280, and, yes, while it's not a linear decrease, I believe it is doable).

!!!
Don't toy with us. Is ZHoH coming back?

1) Successfully graduate.
2) Make as many new friends as I can at college before I graduate.
3) Make the NeS post count over nine-THOUSAAAAAAAAAAND!!!

I started a Dark Forces engine rewrite. I didn't get very far once I found out about all the technical challenges involved in replacing an antiquated software renderer from 1994. I might finish it eventually, it's mostly an issue of lack of interest, on my part and on the (almost non-existent) community's.

1. Get an internship for this summer
2. Get better grades
3. Graduate!
4. Have some fun along the way

Yes. This is true.

Rob, you're wrong. I had a toyota pickup. 1979. I assure you that stuff was never done it it. I had 300k+ miles on it. Engine ran beautifully and it was not even taken very good care of.

Sadly, tranny went out.

Continue beautifying my car. There are still some sworls that I have to get out. It may take the power of a rotary to do it. The elements have not been kind.

Things wanting done to car:

1) New set of rims
2) Tinted windows
3) Perhaps some performance enhancement. Cold-air intake and what not.

Well, I've had a model of a Lucrehulk meant for XWA that I haven't finished in the last year or two.
My mission editor for TIE, XvT and XWA still isn't done, but I went into that knowing it'd take forever.
I'm always finding excuses to make various mod utilities for the X-wing series, I'll no doubt add more to the half-dozen I did this year.

survive through the semester relatively unscathed. This includes, but is not limited to:
Learn my music!!
Have a kick *** Junior recital
Arrange new and more interesting music for my a cappella group/ whip my a cappella group out of the sorry state we fell into
Pull off this semester with at least a 3.5 GPA (which is going to be tricky with all i have going on this semester
Get my cover letter written and actually apply for internships
Start eating, if not completely healthy, at least SOMEwhat healthy (mainly just cut down on my snacking)

Figure out what's going on with the boy.

Not true! I've seen 70 year old, out of shape, men and women doing Crossfit. I'm currently helping my friend who is pretty out of shape get back into shape, primarily using Crossfit/Crossfit methodologies.

It turns you INTO manly men and womenly women though.

I'm betting it's a toyota Hilux. Those things last for well over 300k miles.

With regular maintainance.

mines an '88. Very end of the older style toyota pickups. Little after the hilux though. All of the awesome adults I know also drive toyota pickups. They're about as good as a small truck can get.

Jedi 2?

1. Fill in void time (which I have a lot of) by reading books. Specifically, economics books.

2. Get better with the ladies (never had a chance to develop my girl skills as I had a girlfriend for 1.5 years, and then was somewhat held hostage for 4 months after that, but whatever).

Your girl skills crit for 20000000 damage.
You have killed Britney.
You have gained a level.
You have gained +10 Strength
You have gained +15 Stamina
You have gained +30 Secks
