Five Goals For My Holidays

Posted on by

The common tests are over. Now comes the three-weeks vacation.

More than ever, I’m determined to work on these things as part of my life list.

  1. Be more confident
  2. Write one short story
  3. Have better fitness and stamina
  4. Complete an art piece for Deviant Art
  5. Earn US$10 by year-end with my passive web investments

Be more confident

The past weeks, I observed myself closely for indications of what my confidence level could be. I found a link between my confidence and fitness level.

Whenever I walk, I’ll make sure to pull my shirt lower to cover my huge behind and try to suck in my tummy. The problem is, I do this every few minutes that it looks so strange. Because I’m so concerned about the tummy and the ass, I end up walking awkwardly. This usually happens when I’m surrounded by people I don’t know, or don’t know well.

I’ll be taking a two-pronged approach towards arriving at this goal. There can be no doubt that I have to work on my level of confidence directly. However, I will have to eliminate the obstacle of being unfit as well.

Write one short story

It’s been 2 years and I have yet to write a short story. My procrastination in this goal is psychological. I have nothing to fear from writing a short story, yet I fear many things. What if I have only these few ideas within my head? What if I really suck at writing?

Then again, I’ve proven to myself that these concerns are barely possible. I constantly have weird and morbid dreams to supply me with ideas. And since secondary school, I have been praised for my writing style by some friends and the teacher.

Have better fitness and stamina

The implication of being fitter and having more stamina is multi fold. Not only will this allow me to be more confident, achieving this goal will prepare me for the two years of NS (National Service).

I’m planning to steadily build up my stamina and fitness, and have begun doing so this morning.

Complete an art piece for Deviant Art

I have never liked what the school defined as art. They restrict and coerce you to do ‘art’ in the way they deem fit.

Art to me is freedom to express your perception of the world. While I’m no Picasso, I want to feel this freedom to express me and upload it on Deviant Art.

Earn US$10 by year-end with my passive web investments

Thus far, I’ve stopped selling my stock of domain names on Ebay. Instead, I’d like to focus on earning passive income from certain web developments I own. US$10 may not seem a lot. But in this recession coupled with my lack of experience, it will be an achievement.

  4. I agree with you, leafless, it is quite a list. I’m hoping that the pressure will make me more productive in this three-weeks. 🙂

  6. LOL Eugene. That picture was taken months ago.

    Right now, I’m between being mortal and immortal. Very soon, I’ll be god. Haha.

  9. Hey Harris, I can only think of catching up over dinner. Perhaps with Mandy as well?

    As for other plans, hmm… we can discuss and draw the Jingaro Kingdom map. LOL.

    Actually anything is fine, so long as it doesn’t involve spending too much cash. I was gonna suggest watching Twilight but you’ve already done so.

  11. eh gene, dont force yourself to say things which are untrue!!!

    The difference between mortal and immortal is that, mortal tends to think that they are immortal

  18. Sorry for the late replies, Zhi Wei. I was held up on several occasions, and your messages required me to consider certain things before I could reply.

    And by the way, no lady has messaged me in the past week.

  19. lol, Immortals when with buddies, Mortals when with girls. hais.
    I agree with Zw, Mortals tend to think they are immortals.
