Hang on I better check my old goals, you know last years........
'Aim one: 13 and a half stone by the end of the year (189 pounds and 85.7289579kg thanks google)!
Aim two: Build more muscle- ok I know this isnt one I can neccessarily know when ive hit!
Aim three: Move out by xmas 2010
Aim four: Have a job by November 2010
Aim five: (and the biggie) Cut drink out to two days a week (thursday and saturday so i can be social)
Aim six: A salad a day I mean proper beefy nice salad (that should be easy I love salad)!
Aim seven: Cut out all 'junk food' apart from Sunday nights so I dont go on binges like used to'!
(see: http://thesubmittersmart.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2009-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&updated-max=2010-01-01T00%3A00%3A00-08%3A00&max-results=31 (the longest URL EVER right!?))
Right sooooo goal one. The aim was 85.72kg and right now I weigh in at 93.9 fully clothed and full of food. So id say more like 92kg? Ive lost 7kg in a year. Not much, but im well on my way. No longer classed as overweight which is nice! I'm trying to eat more fruit and veggies and basically live a healthier life style. But overall since target not hit for goal. FAIL.
Goal Two: I joined the gym and went however most of the time the aim was to loose weight not gain muscle so I lost weight (I dont think it was muscle, if I lost any muscle it would have left me a skeleton on my arms! I didnt however stay disciplined with the gym and went on and off for all of 8 months. Overall NEUTRAL.
Goal Three: Not happened, still with my family. Nothing more needs to be said here. FAIL.
Goal four: I have a job. Its just not where I want to be (in the I.T. industry. I've applied for at least fifty jobs. Had a few interviews. I have an interview soon with a bank (ok not I.T. but a BANK is good for the CV) so im hoping that will go well!
Goal five: YEEEES goal achieved (although on different days)! Basically due to work and other people workingg I rarely drink during the week now anyway and LESS on weekends. So overall if anything i'm above the target. ACHIEVED.
Goal six: okay, so not a salad a day. However my life overall has become much healthier food wise. Christmas is here though; lets not tempt fate too much!
Aim Seven: I do eat healthier, still working on this one though NEUTRAL.
OVERALL (the scores are in! Are you excited? I AM):
2 FAIL 3 NEUTRAL 3 ACHIEVED!
So this year I think I should re-use the same resolutions with the aims of making those neutrals ACHIEVED and the fails NEUTRALS AT LEAST! So.......
Aim one: 13 and a half stone by the end of the year (189 pounds and 85.7289579kg thanks google)!
Aim two: Build more muscle- ok I know this isnt one I can neccessarily know when ive hit!
Aim three: Move out by summer 2011 - moved the goal posts back a bit! But not for a year, I need some pressure. However I dont want to rush too much, into stuff im not comfortable with
Aim Four: Get a better, nice job. Which I enjoy doing and feel rewarded for!
So thats this years targets and they can be achieved. The weight lose one is just further work, more excercise and eating healthy and less bad stuff! Pretty simple, but disciplined. Build more muscle. Well when I join the gym and loose some weight ill build muscle then. It might increase my weight but itll make me look better. Moving out relies on my final one of getting a good full time job. Which takes interview skill. Something i'm rapidly having to learn! This one is by far the hardest. The economic climate is crap! A company taking a risk on you is hard enough, but then you need to proove it in interview and they as everyone knows aren't easy. I'm preparing better and better each time though!
Its a matter of time. Up-dates on goals and other things coming soon (very soon).

"twenty-three jobs today. More jobs then you could shake a cat at"!
Yes I did really say the above, to my sister; about errrm twenty seconds ago? Which was when I decided to check-in and write a blog. Why? Why not? This one after all isn't going to be the whiney jargon I decided to serve up in a masterfull dinner of how shit my life has the potiential to be. I was tired yesterday and this definately took its toll and things got to me. My blog is the old do something very damaging. I limit the damage by typing it all in here, the ultimate forum that few people read (and even less do who you know; actually know me).
So what happened today? Well actually quite a bit, you know considering I do a job that doesnt really impact anyone. I was on trollies and it was very slippy. So slippy the boss even came out and told me not to expect the cars to stop. As if it would some how be my fault if I was to be hit by one! Its Christmas you know a time for friendliness and giving and happiness and generousity. Yeah right!? I've seen more generousity in one of the videos of Hitlers concentration camps! People are vicous and very self centred; I am including myself in that sweeping statement. Even now as I type this i'm looking for a job and I wont care if I get it what happened to the many people who applied but failed. However in the more likely event I dont get it suddenly everyone else becomes important because they hurt me and I dont like that. People cant help the egotistic life they all lead. All that matters when the shit hits the fan is themselves. Think you dont apply? Take a closer look! In the best of cases you might care about your friend (note: friend not friends) or family but after that all that matter is number one. Anyway back on topic. Work is hard, Christmas turns people to heartless wankers and job hunting is an incredible hardship. Made worse by rubbish internet and distraction (grrrr damn you blog).
And on that bombshell.

Nice weekend; but........
Hello,
I dont know whats going on.....its tiredness I guess? Its been a great weekend, ive spent too much money and partied waaaay too hard, but now I just feel like dispair. I cant stop thinking and its driving me insane. I'm obsessing over a girl, who i'm doing well with, but this seems like bad obsession; like a panic over her, loosing, lose, rejection? I dont know. I could rant on and on all day (all blog) about this......ok I will, for a while. Readers if you get the feeling this is the scribblings of a persons current thoughts; you are correct! Its not just this girl i'm worrying (is that the right word, I mean, im not worried, its not worry. Panicing? errrm obsessing yes. Obsessing) about its work, getting a new job, progressing with life, acceptence by friends, do I trust them, do they trust me? Do they tell me this, that; the other? Man. I sound crazy; i mean reading this back im thinking "dude your head is fried"! It is, its hurting, its tiredness I know that; so i'm scrolling down my thoughts here; in this public blog any old joe could read! Not wise. Geeeeese I know, but I have to tell someone (something?) about this, that, them? Whatever it is i'm thinking! I need reasons, I need action, I need progression. Its the girls fault. No. its my own making, this situation. My fault. After all my feelings, perceptions, actions. Lack of actions all my fault. I can blame others......and no doubt for the little things I will. At the end of the day I need to do something. i was thinking on the girl front just be friendly, be a friend. But she has many male friends who all like her and want something, but nothing happens! I cant be a drone like them (no offence if your reading this fellas, I am after all pretty mental(see above)). If I ask her though to go somewhere and she says nein, it would hurt alot, I guess its cos my dream would be destroyied. What ive worked for gone......but friends, friends can fall in love right? Anyway enough about that problem (its not a problem, I love it really, maybe, do I? lets not go there).
On the job front, ive had a few more interviews and offers of interviews since my last blog. Jobs come and go, but nothing seems to be really catching on and employing me. I'm hoping 2011 will be a big year of progression for me on that front. I cant really deal with living here much longer. I mean, I love my parent but at the same time they get on my nerves, I need my own space. My own people. I'm still at Sainsburys and I enjoy it. I never thought id write (type) that but I am, its pretty good for what I do, nice people everywhere.
Thats the blog for now.
See you soon readers.
