OK, it is the time of the year for next year’s resolutions again, followings are what was happening in the last 12 months:
Write more professional and personal blogs ( at least 4 each / month )Need to start having the habit of Test Driven Development- Make a website ( the one I have in mind for a while )
- Rebuild Trevor’s website using Flex
- Replace our current ugly fence at home ( hire someone or DIY )
- Learn home gardening from TV show
- Learn some basic Video / Photo editing
Do exercise at least 3-4 times a week ( if weather permits )Lose weight to 70KG, keep it for a few months and not allow it to jump back to more than 75KG- Make 2 or more blood donations
Organise a dinner for high school friends to get together- Get my dad to come over and join us for at least a few weeks
- Teach Trevor how to swim ( not by me though )
Beat my 14K run for the kids record set in 2009 on my birthday ( 1:11:18 )Buy more gifts for family
Some are done, but others didn’t commit enough, and some are out of my control, like my dad’s visa rejection. I consider it as not too bad, but still a lot to improve.
Now looking forward to 2012, I would like the following to happen:
Personal goals:
- Continue with more blogs ( again at least 8 posts each month )
- Rebuild Trevor’s website and build another one for our new baby girl
- Ride to work for whole 22KM at least 4 times a month
- Drop my weight to 65KG ( this is the most challenging one )
- Make 3 blood donations
Professional goals:
- Make my new project live
- Learn Symfony2 and build a site using it
- Learn mobile programming and build a mobile version of my project
- Get new ideas for new project(s)
- Write application to back up my server data to Dropbox automatically, including blog posts & images, svn etc
I hope I can get more done this year.
