Working out, losing weight, maybe using tanning spray, becoming more attractive in general



A lot of people give New Years resolutions a lot of flak for being rather silly and unrealistic and unproductive, but all I know is that last year I resolved to get a girlfriend and now I'm getting married this April. *shrug*

So here we go! 2008's New Years resolutions! This time in the spirit of Kimberly's resolutions process.

Item 1. Earn a 3.5 GPA for both winter and fall semesters.

Item 2. Be debt free at the end of the year (preferably by May).

Item 3. Finish my Rising Stars of Manga submission for next year by Valentine's Day.

Item 4. Get married to Dantzel.

Item 5. Take advantage of the new liberties under an LDS sanctioned marriage.

Item 6. Start a daily comic strip and never miss a beat by February (I am torn between the two titles "Story of my Life" and "Alma, Son of George").

Item 7. Get into my healthy weight zone by April 26th (around 140-150 lbs.) and maintain it for the rest of the year.

Item 8. Learn how to do yoga and practice it every day.

Item 9. Have at least 2 oz. of ten different teas collected and twelve new spices for my spice collection by the end of the year.

Item 10. Make my girl the happiest in the world.

Should Item 4 occur, Item 5 will most likely follow, as well as Item 10, though the latter is not necessarily guaranteed.

Should Item 4 (and possibly Item 5) occur, Item 10's success is greatly enhanced. Actually, all Items 1-9 should make Item 10 easier to accomplish.

Should Item 7 happen, Item 8 will also happen.

Should Item 3 be completed, Item 6 will most likely also be completed and vice versa.

The greater success of Items 4, 5, 6 and 2, the greater a 50% chance will occur of either the utter failure of Item 1, or its overwhelming success.

Item 9 may hamper with Item 2.

Items 4 and 5 will facilitate the completion of all other Items.

Item 8 may have a minor influence on Item 10 by having an indirect positive effect during the completion of Item 5. Just sayin'.

Item 7 (and Item 8) will have a direct positive influence on Item 1.

Items 4 and 5 will most likely happen on April 26th.

Dantzel will most likely assure me that Item 10's intitation began somewhere around December 29th on a ferry between Seattle and Bainbridge Island.

Super congratulations! Not that you finally being engaged is a super huge shock or anything. I want details of the proposal process once you guys get back from vacations.

I halfway took Rhett and Link's advice this year and cut out all the goals that I know won't last me over a week. But just so everyone knows - what I posted on my blog was a logic puzzle for fun. I don't actually want to own a world map. Now go complete it and answer the question!
