New Year Resolutions
YES, Happy new year to all
Its time for me to write my new year resolutions.
Having thought long and hard...I have decided, not to continue my honours. That is the first thing. I really cant motivate myself to learn the Vietnamese language anymore. I would say its not really my cup of tea. Its time to move on, old things have passed away, and its time to look to the future and not dwell on this honours dilema which has been bugging me for so long.
I also couldn't see myself handling both Bible sch and Honours, taking into account the exams, tests and assignments, realistically speaking. I may tell myself I can do it now. But the previous semesters has shown that it really has to take interest and willingness in order to succeed in continuing my studies. Another issue has been that I have only scored good grades for modules that are sort of "fun" in nature, dont have much readings, and deal more with music!
Which brings me to my next point, which is I think my passion in life is not politics or having a government job, rather , its music! And this will be the focus of my 2010.
Another main focus will be Japanese!, I decided, since I'm left with 2 modules, I might as well make the most of it and take up another language. Now this is out of my own interest, and not because of a girl ( in the case of Vietnamese ) oopz! which was a long time ago actually. I shall gambatte!!! because there's this programme I'm really quite keen on, called JET, or Japan Exchange Teaching. Where we can get sent to Japan as assistant language teachers, or International relations coordinators for a period of 1 year, with the option of extending to 5 years. This shall be my aim for 2010.
Hence my 2 main goals for 2010 is : Start polishing up my music skills (guitar)
and be fluent in conversational Japanese by year end. Of course there is also Bible school, which I plan to embark on.
Now for the breakdown of Top 20 GOALS OF 2010!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Financial Goals and Action Plan
1) Set up my website and make sure it is successful!, YES I'm going to set up a website that I am passionate about and can see myself updating it. Its going to be called Japanrocks.org , although I have to pay $14 for the name (why Ben? why is it not free? ) It will focus on Japanese Pop Culture, in particular the Rock and Hip Hop music scene, so stayed tuned for it!
2) I will find WORK and make sure I can fully fund Bible school by myself. I am currently working for IRO ( International Relations Office ) in NUS and am hoping to get another post as a clinic assistant at night, I pray to God I can get it... for those who are Christians, I would really thank you and appreciate if you could help me pray that I can get this job as well! Many thanks!
3) I will manage my finances PROPERLY, and try to not have $2 left in my bank account every month. This includes having a detailed budget outline for each month and making sure I stick to it! I plan to be able to fulfill my Bible Sch costs, as well as save up at least $1000 by the end of the year. AT LEAST is the word haha!
4)OF course, I will be updating and making sure I update this website at least ONCE a WEEK. Yes, I plan to make this website a hit as well. My goal will be to try and hit a constant 30 visitors per day by the end of the year! People, if you like what you are reading, do recommend this blog to your friends!, and I'm very sorry for all the empty promises I made in the past.
FITNESS GOALS
1) 65KG, I WILL HIT 65KG THIS YEAR I DONT CARE!!!!! I'M FED UP WITH ALWAYS SETTING THIS MARK BUT ONLY hitting it half way and then gaining back everything. From today onwards, I will make sure I put in utmost effect to hit it!
2) Apply skin centre medication religiously! Although I spent $80 on the medication, I'm ashamed to say I dont really put it every night and day. 2010 WILL BE MY BREAKTHROUGH YEAR!!!!
3) Bonus will be 6 pac of course...but its not the priority
In June, I want to be at least 68KG, and have a somewhat clear complexion.
New Personal Goals
1) Be fluent in conversational Japanese by the end of the year ( gonna need your help Ezekiel, Jiaxiang, Yvonne, Lindy! )
2) Learn Guitar until I'm at an advanced level, know chord progression, and how to play guitar solos, and aspects of guitar keys. Also learn some basic music theory. Because I want to be the ultimate guitar hero!!! hahaha, I also want to learn some aspects of song recording. I want to take my composing to another level instead of just using the basic chords. There's this competition in January , please pray for me that I can at least reach the finals! , which can provide me another source of income as well. ( gonna need your help Andy! ) Maybe I can include posting some videos of Band Hero here! hahahaha because its really similar to playing drums haha.
3) Finish Bible sch and make sure I make full use of each and every lesson so that I can benefit and become a more spiritually filled person!! and not just go through it for the sake of going through it. Of course to grow closer to God in the process as well!
4) If I managed to get a job, then I can include dancing as well! If I have time as well.
5) Grow closer to my cell group~~~ its sort of a new change for me, still coming to grip with it, but I will gambatte! we must accept change in order to move from grace to grace!
And also to be more sociable , think more positively , spend more time with God, spend more time with my family, and work hard at my dreams!!!!!!!!!!
The ultimate goals for 2010
Finish Bible Sch
Graduate with my degree
Advanced level guitar skills
Write some songs
Be able to converse in Japanese
65KG
Make it to JET 2011!
