Resolutions 2011

Well last year was not a very good year for resolutions so I hope this year I would at least complete them. Have been thinking about what I should put as my resolution for this year and finally settled on these 5 New Year Resolution for 2011.

1) Catalogue my Comic Collection
This has really taken ages to do I did zero entries last year basically just too busy with the kids. But I hope this year I would be able to do more and I have already setup my PC for the long haul data entry so at least it’s a start. Just hope the PC starts up and my data is not lost ha ha …

2) Complete my Star Wars Toy Collection
It’s an old set actually about 3 or 4 years old I have no idea how many figures are in there that I need to complete but I know I am missing quite a few it’s a 60 figure set if I am correct. Have to start digging them out again. This is probably the hardest resolution to complete as not sure if the figures are still available around here and hope they are cheap. I know I got all the McQuarrie figures so it’s the others that I need to track down. Time to hit those flea marts ….

3) Built my Lego AT-AT
It’s about time I got this done I had it for like 3 years now and not worked on it yet. Just hope the parts have not disintegrated over the years ha ha  … May even have time to take a coupe of pictures always wanted to do that and I even had kept toilet rolls which I wanted to paint to recreate the Endor battle scene.

4) Finish 2 X-Box Games
Decided to lower some expectations to this as I might not have time to complete but have started by at least bringing out the machine into a place where I can access it for playing. Got my guidebooks and web sites ready for when I get into trouble ha ha …

5) Improve on 3 run times
Now that I had complete 1 Marathon I as debating if I should try a triathlon or maybe a biathlon but I think I’m not so ready for that. So I have decided to improve on my previous year’s run times. They were not fantastic times last year seems as I get older it gets slower so it’s time to arrest that slide. I definitely would like to try out again for the Singapore Marathon, full distance 42.195km (6hr 13min 24sec) the other run which I have always liked would be the REAL run and going for the 15km (1hr 58min 34sec) the third run was something I am still contemplating as want to be a half marathon distance and was thinking of the Sunsdown or Bay Run. I might go with the Sunsdown (2hr 44min 33sec) as it’s in the first half of the year so that it does not clash with the other 2 and also plan only to run 4 times this year and I have already signed up for the 2XU run. Well need to get going and sign up for it else have to go with the PAssion Run.

So that’s my 5 resolutions for the year and this time I will do a quarterly update on progress for the above 5 resolution instead of doing a year end review probably that would help motivate me a little to complete come of them !!
