New Year resolution:
Loose weight =)
Play with my son.
Learn my son about music.
Hawing fun =).
 
Mine was to not die......until i heard that 70% of people fail to keep their new years resolution within the first 2 weeks of the new year....and that im on a plane to the states within those first 2 weeks.

Ive decided that no resolution is the way to go.
 
As of right now, its for me to get better. I've been sick for a week now and I've dropped weight. Granted I was building muscle like crazy and working out 6 times a week, and now i'm doing nothing. My only new years resolution as of now is to finish an album.
 
well, first one will be hard:

* to find a job in a couple of weeks, otherwise I have to leave this country for some time.

Then, if everything goes right, I can think about nice stuff :)

* build a bass. I already have a rough design, I decided on some of the exact specifications, some of them are left to be decided later (like top woods). I also think I know how to do it, where to get the timbers from etc. It's gonna be a hidden NT with chambered body wings. Probably fretless first.
* make some nice and high quality clips of me playing bass in my living room for YouTube :)
* get a driving licence. I can drive decently (even in one of my last jobs, one of my duties was driving a truck. They never asked me if I'm actually allowed to do it), I first started to drive a car, and a tractor, when I was about 9. It was around my uncle's farm, or in the woods, but still. Never quit, but somehow I never managed to get myself to get a licence.
* start going to the gym again, and run in the mornings. I was feeling much better when I was doing it on a regular basis.
* learn to play as many bebop heads as I can.
* improve my music reading.
* propose to my girlfriend.

I could go on...
