My New Year Resolutions! :)

On the 1st of January, thousands of people made new year resolutions, but I, wasn't among them. At that point of time, I was having a movie marathon with my sister and my two elder cousins. But that's not main idea of what I'm planning to tell you, the reader. What I want to talk about, is my new year resolutions. What my resolutions are now, aren't close to what they were last year. They are more about me, trying to be a better person, and gaining more knowledge. Well, it may sound a little bit nerdy, but it's what I'm interested in. Here you go. These are two of my 2011 new year resolutions!


My first new year resolution, is to be nicer to people that annoyed me in the past year. I want this because if I'm nicer, then there's a possibility that they may be nicer to me than what they were before. Part of this resolution is about my spanish class, really. How? Well, there's someone there that really gets on my nerves, and causes me to get into trouble at times when I tell them off. What I plan to do is  just be nicer to that person, like I said before, and not get on their nerves (because I can get a little annoying sometimes). That, will help me pay more attention and not fool around not only in Spanish, but any other classes.


My second resolution is to learn more about the architecture of Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece. Ever since I read Percy Jackson and The Olympians and The Kane Chronicles, I was hooked on to Mythology. But, when I read a little about the Parthenon, I wanted to know more about it. The reason why I would actually bother to learn about it, is that I love anything to do with History, so with architecture,  you actually see it, it's not the way you have to believe in myths. It's just right infront of you. Sometimes proving, that maybe those myths, aren't actually myths after all.


So there was my resolutions. You finally know. Being nicer and learning architecture. Even though some people won't take my resolutions seriously, but when I achieve my goals, and I plan to do so, I can turn to them and show them that I actually could do it! Take that, disbelievers. But, enough of these resolutions. Let's go onto a quick snapshot of my Christmas break.


For my Christmas break, I went back to India for 15 days. Not the most fun I had, to tell you the truth. What I basically did was move around every few days. Either to my cousin's, my other cousin's, my grandparent's, my other grandparent's and then everywhere else. I just played with my 3-year-old cousin, chatted on Facebook, and went to malls. The most fun I had was when I went to Dili Haat, a market, and got some strands of my hair- how do I explain this- wrapped around in colorful string, went to my cousin's to actually get access to the internet, and had a movie marathon in which I watched Paranormal Activity 2 (scary!!!). 


I also watched Tron: Legacy, and it was pretty good, I must say. But when I came back from India, I was bored, stuck in my room for 5 days. Then, I had to help out new students before school restarted. At least it's more fun than sitting in your room, looking through bad Youtube videos. The thing is, when I left school, I didn't want break to end. But when I arrived in KL, I didn't want anything more in the world, than to go back, to school. So, this is where my blogpost finally comes to an end. I hoped you enjoyed!

  1. Those are 2 interesting resolutions you have got there! I think it was interesting to read and to know more about your resolutions. I found it interesting because it made me realize how much effort you are going to take on changing yourself to be more nice towards others. I also liked how you found architecture interesting and it shows it is some sort of passion you have. something you should improve on is to use more creative words in your writing.
