adi_blackI think I'm sensing a trend here.
Anyway, it's 2012 now and as usual it doesn't feel any different from any other year.
I'll be 21 in 22 days :D
Or is it 21 in 21 days? My birthday's on the 22nd anyway.
I'd have some resolution or another here like updating a fic, finishing a fic, reading a fic or whatever but I probably wouldn't get around to doing it like the horrible person I am.
Real life resolutions would be getting my license, obtaining my car from my sister, and getting a job.
Not like I don't want to do those things, I just lack the motivation to do them.
That could be a real resolution: Find some flippin' motivation. I know I have it in me somewhere. Stop being so apathetic about everything. Now I think that's a good goal to work toward.
Anyway, I just felt like I should post something else in here so it would feel loved and used.
Yep.

Date: 2012-01-31 01:13 am (UTC)I'm still working on that fic that was supposed to be for your last birthday.
Progress has been made, though! I'm planning on finishing the whole thing before posting it so that any plot-hole-fixing/general editing can be made easier.
Also, yeah, after a while birthdays stop feeling so special.
Um, I never make New Year's resolutions because that kind of tends to not work out.
If it helps any, I've found that simply sitting down and doing something before you lose your nerve tends to work out best, at least in the short term, and if you manage to keep doing it every day often enough, TADA! MOTIVATION WHERE DID YOU COME FROM, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, WAIT NEVER MIND, YOU CAN STAY! And then everything is awesome forever.

I'd completely forgotten about my 'resolution' before I saw you replied and re-read the entry xD
Yeah, that's true. Like when I was trying to write that DP/HP crossover thing I'd been meaning to do I ended up doing like 15k words in 5 days. It's been awhile since I worked on it but it still shows that if I actually sit and do something I'll actually do it.
