We all know, of course, that New Year resolutions are kinda absurd. Most of the time, we forget about them within the first couple of weeks of the new year, or - even worse - we drive ourselves crazy by trying to fulfill these (sometimes quite impossible) demands that no one but we ourselves inflicted upon us. But I am just going to pretend I don't know anything at all about the impossibility of resolutions and formulate a couple of them just for the fun of it, and for the sake of the prospective, stunning moment I am going to have in a year's time from now, when looking back on these daring claims I set out for myself to live up to.
# 1 Write a substantial part of my thesis. (This is actually not a resolution, but an obligation. After all, I get paid to write my thesis, so there's no way I can really escape writing it eventually one day.)
# 2 Have more sex than in 2008. Considering the amount of sex I had in 2008, this shouldn't be too difficult. (And yes, that's sex with another person than myself.)
# 3 Do sports for at least an hour at least twice a week. (hahahahahahahahahaa!)
# 4 Ammendment to # 2: Have good sex. (A bit trickier than just have more sex.)
# 5 Go away for a two-week vacation to a place that is not Austria or France, and without any work related books. (It's getting trickier & trickier...)
# 6 Make some essential progress or breakthrough in my analysis. (A bit out of my hands that one...)
