Whats your new years resolutions then????

i've been doing a bit of thinking recently, (its a new dimension for my brain) people keep saying that they feel really unlucky cos they never get more than one number on the lottery or they trod in dog poo...... is that really unlucky?

cos i always considered myself unlucky, crashed my first car 3 days after i passed, then 2 days after that i reversed into my mates car and helped write it off, then it got keyed (abt 800 quids worth of damage) over the bonnet and all down the side, then i got my quiky and got ripped off for an alternator that i didnt need, and then just before xmas i crashed it...... thats wen i found out my excess was £600 not £250 like i thought! so i always considered myself pretty unlucky...... but i saw sense when my mate got hit by a train and had to have part of both legs amputated, i'm not so quick to moan about my rotten luck anymore......

So my new years resolution is to think of the positives, whats yours????

Ah, hopefully your luck will improve for 2007!

My new years resolutions are just the usual things

try and get uni work done at least a few days before it has to handed in
Have a relationship the lasts more than a few weeks
Dont spend too much money on fuel (yer right!)

lol...... everyone makes ridiculous new years resolutions, like the woman i work witgh says she wants to lose a stone by august........ no offence darlin but you've been trying to lose a stone since you had your last child, 23 years ago! and you've only succeeded in putting it on, but on the positive side (see there is one in every situation) she gets to buy a whole new wardrobe everytime she fails!


I love being bitter!

i think the whole point of new years resolutions is so that by lent you realise what a failure you are and get depressed, its god's big plan! mark my words lol!

Stop smoking - which I did in november :D
Stop drinking - which I have done except a few JD's over the weekend cos I've had a bit of a shit week
Work more - 100hr weeks so far
Earn more - should be rolling in if I can keep my contract work flowing
Pay off debts - paying double off my credit card than I was last year
Finish car

This last one is astonishing me - since new year everyone has been throwing bargains at me
Cheap wheels, cheap exhausts, cheap air filters
And now SteVtr (Shell's boyfriend on here) has offered to save me his reclining seats!! which are a steal (I may actually kiss him when I go get them in 2 weeks)

Gonna send my rear bench off to corbeau and get it trimmed to match the seats - then get some quiky front door cards

Interior should look lush
And when I get some more contract money - front end respray, and anthracite powder coated vts wheels

Spraying a rocker cover up at the moment and looking at buying a written off '03 plate VTR
If that happens I'll take my engine out and respray the engine bay - then drop in the VTR lump with all the wiring, new shafts, wishbones, the LOT

Heres to 2007 - so far its 100x better than the way I started 2006 :D

Wear contacts like I do.

You'll realise how nice it is to have 100% vision mate.
