Up, Down and All Around

Resolution Recap: February

Can you believe it?! 1/6th of the year is gone! Where did the time go? Again, it amazes me just how quickly the month has passed.

So it's again time for me to revisit my new year's resolutions. I'm already dreading writing this...

1. Lose my holiday weight gain
Nope... still no progress on this one. Have been so busy lately that I actually had to stop working out for three weeks. So no weight loss. But no weight gain either... buti nalang.

2. Stop Cursing
Did very well on this one! I think I cursed only a couple of times this month... a definite improvement over last month and a major worthy-of-being-proud improvement over last year. There's hope for me yet!

3. Be Less Judgmental about People
Can't say I revised my opinion of anyone this month... but I don't recall coming to any snap judgments about anyone either. So I guess this is status quo.

4. Read at least 12 books of the Bible
Picked another easy one: 2 Peter. Did you know that some people argued that this wasn't truly written by Peter because the writing style differed so much from 1 Peter? But it eventually got accepted as being officially written by Peter because they explained the difference in writing style by the fact that Silas helped Peter write the first book (Peter mentions it as he closes 1 Peter).

5. Identify 5 friends with whom I've lost touch in 2005 and re-establish contact throughout 2006
Yup! Yup! Am working hard on this one, and to be honest, it is nice to get in touch with friends after a while because there's a lot to talk about! haha!

6. Watch at least one movie in the Theatres Each Month
Failed miserably with this one. I didn't watch a single movie in the theatres this month. It's a good thing I watched two movies in January. I was hoping to be able to watch Proof this month, but its run in the theatres ended before I got around to it, unfortunately. :-(

7. Read at least one work of fiction a month
Yup! Yup! Got this done. Read The Anubis Gates, by Tim Powers. Really great plotline, interesting characters, compelling scene descriptions, and overall just plain fun. If you like time travel and Indiana Jones, this is a good book for you.

8. Attend a live JaRla event
Still none available this month, unfortunately. :(

9. Complete my Christmas Shopping on or before Nov 30.
Still haven't started. But at least I still have some time on my hands. :D
