Does anyone make New Years Resolutions? Last year, I made 12 resolutions and kept a grand total of one. Er, make that half of one. The actual resolution was “Read a lot without letting it interfere with my studies.” And, well, I read a lot.
With that in mind, I decided to take a shot at making some resolutions for my blog. What can it hurt, right? (Right?)
1. Finish reading the books on my Recommended Reading List. You might notice that I changed the title of my list from “Summer Reading” to “Recommended Reading”, for rather obvious reasons. To save what dignity I have left, my sister says. I didn’t expect it to take me this long to work through the list, but I AM still working on it.
2. Post a few more personal posts. I like doing book reviews, but I want to intersperse them with more personal posts.
3. And last but not least, I want to try to post twice a week. This will be the hardest resolution to keep, I think. But I really do need to up the frequency of my posts.
That’s it. Now all I can do is hope that everyone will have forgotten my resolutions by the time the end of the year rolls around.

You're back!! :-D I admire you for even attempting to make resolutions for this year's blogging--I know I wouldn't make it ;-).

Hi, it's nice to have you back finally! :o) Well, I accomplished all zero of my NYRs from last year. For lack of ideas, I didn't make any this year, either. No, I'm not perfect, but I can only think of one thing that would be reasonable and practical. And I don't want to do it. :o) Glad to read that you want to be posting more. I enjoy your personal posts!

Good to have you back!! You were missed last month. ;-) Hehe...I never bother myself with making new resolutions. They're always the same every year. I never fully keep any of them, but I get better as the years go on. That's a good thing, I suppose.
