This year I have made a few New Year’s Resolutions which I am really hoping that I can keep! The first is to improve my command of the Dutch language so that I can read general magazines and articles, as I live here in The Netherlands, it is inevitable that I will have to learn Dutch sooner or later; so why not sooner?
The second is that I’m going to try and fit at least thirty minutes of exercise into my daily routine, although I will probably have to exclude the weekend to ensure that I am still alive by the end of the month! I'm not really an active person at the minute, as I have too many things that I would rather be doing indoors to find the time to head outside for some exercise and fresh air, but it is something that I need to work on.
I would also like to make some progress on the novel which I have been planning, but I don't expect to complete the first draft this year. Instead I just want to make a start to see how far I can get, and hopefully one day have a completed novel.
I think my last New Year’s Resolution is a little pointless – to read more than ten books a year – as I already achieve this figure, but I guess I threw this one in to ensure that I did actually stick to one of my resolutions this year!
Overall I am hoping for a successful year in 2011, especially where my studies are concerned, so I will definitely have to ‘knuckle down’ and work hard to get those all important grades in Law School.
I hope that you guys have a great year and feel free to share your New Year’s Resolutions!
