Yes, it is time one again to gather round and share this last fortnight's escapades. Have you striven valiantly, vanquishing all resistance in the path to glory? Or have you succumbed to inactivity, allowing resentment to slowly sink away into apathy? Sit on down and share all...

Bonus Question: Has the pursuit of any of this year's goals so far taught you anything about yourself?

The document of compiled goals can be seen here. Feel free to add yourself if you have not yet done so. If you didn't participate in the past thread(s), that's okay too. You can also join in whenever you like, so go ahead.

Finally took the SAT's, and I'm glad it's out of the way. I think I did well, I'll get results next week, but I surprisingly butchered the essay portion. I've never once had trouble with the essay, but I got caught up in the introduction and wasted time (only given 25 mins.) The essay topic was about loyalty, but I felt betrayed. I'll be taking it again in March for good measure, so this checkbox will not be crossed off yet.

To counter the fact that I have absolutely and completely stopped working out, and that I need school sports team participation for West Point, and that I'm mildly muscular but cardiovascularly pitiful, I've decided to join my school's spring track & field team. For now it seems like it's gonna be a good solution to my exercise resolution. I'm a decent runner so if I kick ass I'll get a varsity letter a year early, which would be nice.

In regards to the sticky icky, I've put the pipe down for now. I don't necessarily feel "better" about this, cause the sticky icky happens to feel great. in addition, I've experienced the really bad nightmares that some people have reported following immediate quitting after smoking for some time. That bit sucked, as I don't ever get nightmares, really; this shit was bad. Anyway, it's possible that I'm just not smoking much because I haven't come across it much recently, but I've been proactive in keeping myself away from it.

In general, I'm making progress, which is fine by me as long as it's moving along. Honestly though, the only thing I really want is just to cuddle into a blanket of eternal nap time.
