I thought a bit about if I wanted to keep them to myself or not. And I've decided that it might push me a bit if I am open about them. It can be interesting to see what you've thought about doing, perhaps it might even inspire me to add something to the list.

My current list of things I should do are:

• Finish my studies at the latest during the beginning of the fall 2007. I'm going for 200 points (which is equal to five years of full time studies) instead of 160 points which my masters really require. I'm behind at the moment due to different things, like eye problems (I've had surgery and I'll need it again now).

• Get in better shape. At the moment I'm a bit over weight. I'm 177cm and I weigh in at 92kg after the holidays. I would like to weigh around 80 kg. It's entirely possible, I've just been lazy but the negative consequences aren't worth it.

• Create three projects I've been thinking about for a long time. [1] A blog system with some odd features (I want the content to be in XML and transformed into XHTML, LaTeX and plain text). I got some work done here mostly in the learning department but also some parsing/transformation. I will use PHP5 for this one. [2] An application to handle regular languages and automata. No work done yet except for getting the theory done and having a rough requirement specification. This one will be created in Java and I'm leaning towards SWT for the GUI. [3] A Shoot'em Up. Not work at all done, excepting thinking that it would be cool if the enemies were controlled by Lua scripts so that I can make them behave any way I want to. I want to use OpenGL but I'm not sure I'll use AllegroGL. Maybe.

• If I have some time over I would like to create a puzzle book and publish it through Lulu.com. This one isn't a promise though, it's something I find appealing at the moment and I'll most likely change my mind.

OBLIGATORY

1280x960

- I'm working freelance as a programmer/consultant. I want to stay that way.

- Finish up some of my games. Duh.

- Relax more.

• Stay with Cessna and move up positions if possible.

• Get friggin laid sometime soon

I already thought about starting a thread like this myself, so here you are, ordered by priority(highest first):

• become 26 years old

• listen to Heavy Metal every day

• practice drawing and/or pixelling every day

• spend more time improving my skills, waste less time on IRC

• no more fastfood

• no more cheap over-sugar-ized icetea

• start eating fruit for breakfast (bananas, apples, ...)

• burn the 8kg of fat that I gained since I started my job in august

Reach nirvana. Failing that, have fun.

1. Create my first 3D programming,

2. Finished Frak, thank god.

3. Learn how to do my Rubic Cube again.

Sometime in the early '70's I resolved to never make more New Years Resolutions. And I've kept it!

Ban one member per day.

You're going to pimp your girlfriend? How much?

Oh; there's a good one. 30,000 posts!

Not a problem. Doing it without getting banned will be the trick ...
