So, you making any?
Mine are pretty simple.....
Give up smoking (like I have done for the past 20 New Year's Resolutions!) at midnight....this time, I'm serious.....
Get a band together....me on rhythm, already got a lead guitarist, need bass, drums and a keyboard player....
Play at the local music festival.....
Go to Texas again.....
Keep writing, keep improving as a guitarist, keep practising bass and learn how to use that Tascam 8-track mixer that's been gathering dust since I bought it.....
Oh and get some sort of life that doesn't involve guitars.....nah, forget I said that....what kind of life would it be if it didn't involve guitars?
Have a good new year....may 2006 be better than 2005, but not as good as 2007....
:D :D :D

I only have one big goal for 2006: get myself past conservatorium entree exams, if I blow that one I might as well skip 2006 altogether. Odds aren't in my favor as far as I can see. The 'smaller' ones:
1) Make it to the UK meeting.
2) Continue to waste money on equipment. (digital piano, 19" EQ, proper multi-effect, ASIO soundcard, you name it)
3) Finish my 'album'.
4) Become somewhat closer to 'friendly'.
5) Start smoking so I can stop smoking later on. :P
Happy newyear in advance everyone!
Vic can I give you bit of advise on quitting smoking ... it helped me years ago .. drink orange juice the acid in orange juice takes away the want for a cigarete ..
As for New Years resolutions na I'll pass I only break them anyway .............
Maybe to write a song every week in SSG ....... But I know I'll break it but I'll try there you go ............
This is Lotto King
And you have a lovely day

As for New Years resolutions na I'll pass I only break them anyway .............
Me, too, usually!! But....... after this year I intend to live my life for all it's worth!! You don't really realize what's majorly important until someone tells you that you might not be around a whole lot longer. Now that that's over with...........
My New Year's Resolutions are:
1. To be the best friend possible to all of my friends.
2. To tell the people that I care about that I love them on a regular basis, and to let them know how important they are to me.
3. To be more 'tuned in' to my niece and nephews and be a better Aunt to them all.
4. To try to treat my brother-in-law as if I haven't lost all respect for him (even though I have). (This is going to be the most difficult one!)
5. To find the, I almost said 'job', but I want more than a job. I'm going to find something that I love to do and do my best to make my living from that.
I guess, all in all, my New Year's Resolution is to be a better person.

That pretty much sums it up for me as well. And I couldn't have said it any better!
I'd like to also spend more time writing and hanging around Guitar Noise than I did last year. Maybe I'll "see" some folks over at the chatroom again:

And I truly need to find time to practice on a more regular basis.
Life as usual, I guess...
Peace

If I am just making a wishlist

2. Learn 10 or so Christmas songs
3. Figure out my relationship woes.
4. Pay off most of my bills
That should cover a year.
