Review: 2013 Resolutions & Wishes


How did I do for my 2013's?

Er... let's just say I am keeping up with the trend. -_-

- be a better father: FAILED

Wifey's comment late in 2013, basically saying I am not a good father, pretty much sealed it. I did put in effort especially in the beginning of the year, but resigned to just being the provider after.

- be a better husband: ?

This one can only be judged by wifey, but I haven't got feedback from her since setting the resolution. Oh well.

- socialise more: PARTIAL SUCCESS

I am giving myself an 'okay' here since I think I got slightly better and am less antisocial. Made some new friends, went out more, and also put in some effort to socialise.

- read more novels than 2012: FAILED

Read 31 books in 2012, only managed 29 in 2013. Dammit.

- get back to photography: PARTIAL SUCCESS

Started out good but quickly lost steam, then picked up towards the end of the year. Did really put some effort into polishing the photography skill and took some passable photos. I just don't have the motivation to do this on my own.

- write a story, any length, any language: FAILED

Laziness has no cure. (slacker point +1) I have a few half-cooked chapters though.


3 fails, 2 partial success (let's make that 1 success), and 1 unknown out of 6. So that's 3/6 fails and 1/6 success, i.e. FAIL.

Not surprisingly, I failed again in 2013. -_-

As for 2014...

... forget it!

I have a few in mind, I just don't want to list them down anymore so even if I failed again at the end of the year, there will be no record. =P



As a side note, I did better in terms of not working overtime. OT count: 38 times in 2012 while 31 times in 2013, yay! Though of course the price was I now turn on my laptop to work at home every single work night, and sometimes weekend...
