None.

I don't believe in them because everyone I know has broken them over the past few years - some in record time.

Hit 6'0"!

Erm. The best part about it, is that I can't really do anything about it. But I'm 5'11"ish, and still slightly growing. And being 5'11" is annoying, my height should be even-ish!

I'm only 5'7", but I suppose I could live with that height (I was actually only 5'3" until I was around 16, then I grew a whole four inches between 16 and 18)... my sister hated being short (only 4'11"), but she now lives with it

I'm 6'1" and I fucking hate it

I'd rather be as tall as your sister. I'm only barely fat but I wear XL.

5'9 here. I'm good with the height, just not with the broad shoulders.

I've always had broad shoulders relative to my height, which is funny, because I've generally been relatively skinny. It kinda made my shirts just drape off me, though.

I went from 5'2" to 5'7" in the summer between Freshman and Sophomore year in High School. That was pretty entertaining.

Finally finish my Dream computer.

Lose a little weight and gain muscles.

And finally, maybe go back to school.

Just a few that I think are attainable (I try not to make resolutions are not realistic):
(1) Master the 4th Grade kanji set
(2) Maintain my weight of 190~200 lbs. (My highest was 210, and recently after coming back from Japan, my weight was 192. I want to keep it as close to 190 as possible.)
(3) Complete at least 3 more RPGs
(4) Get better at responding to e-mails (I'm bad at replying back to e-mails.)
(5) Complete at least 20 books. (Japanese)

My new year's resolution is usually "I will not change myself just because the year has ended."

That said, my plans for this year involve posting more, finishing porting stuff to the Cutting Room Floor wiki, and surviving my first semester at Hunter College after scraping by in a community college for 2 years. >>;

~~1024x600~~

I've never bothered making new years' resolutions, since I always forget or just don't think it's worth doing. Even if I did, I don't know what they would be

Stop procrastinating so much on projects maybe?

Let's see.
1. Find career. Or at least a college.
2. Not die in Europe.

Yeah that's about it.

I was forced to write one by my school, and I actually wrote something down that I've wanted to do for a while now.

1. Run a half marathon

I even found one(actually, my cousin who is also running it found it for me) that isn't to far from home that I really want to run. Who knows, maybe next year I'll run a whole one. Oh, I just thought of a couple more...

2. Get my mile time from the low six minute range(6:09 being my lowest time) to the low fives or even the high fours
3. As common as it is, get a 4.0 this semester(shouldn't be too hard with my selection of classes)

Mine are below, nothing to special.

-Lose weight, get in shape, try out for the semi-pro American football team. (probably a tight end)

-Learn to design / and put out some video games of my own.

-Pass my grad classes.

-Play more video games.

-Eat out less.

I kinda... make it a point to not make any resolutions because I'm certain I'll disappoint myself. I've disappointed myself in the past.

I find that I actually get stuff I need or even want to do done if I don't make any resolutions for myself. That's the strategy I've decided to use this year.

Here's a random resolution that can't be finished this year alone: finish my degree. Yeah, having half a degree isn't particularly useful.
