lordjord96 · 10th Nov 2008, 08:00 AM

I know its a little early but im just asking what are you doind next year that can help you?

im going to get more fresh air, not eat as much choc and sweets and ill try to come out
i would like to know what you all will try sucseed for next year!

**Jim1454** · 10th Nov 2008, 09:03 AM

LOL - I'll say it's early!!!

I'm going to just keep doing the things I'm doing now. I'm going to keep exercising, keep working on my recovery, keep focussed on my work.

2009 might be the year I come out to my kids, and it might not be. I'll just wait and see.

10th Nov 2008, 02:13 PM

Hopefully I'll have my own computer by then, in which case I'll be writing. A lot. And I hope to be able to do gymnastics more (I'll be able to drive there by myself!) and further my "career."

As for coming out, who knows. Maybe, maybe not. I kinda doubt it at this point.

Apocalypte · 10th Nov 2008, 02:25 PM

For 2009?

- Finish my degree
- Run a marathon
- Come out to my parents

Jeimuzu · 10th Nov 2008, 03:53 PM

I'm going to finish my degree, and save up some money so I can go travelling for a bit of a gap year. I'm also going to see if I can assist at some schools and hence get the sort of experience I'd need to do a PGCE, since I don't think I'll do one next year, not till the year after.

Lose some weight plan on possibly leaving my catholic school

**Maddy** · 10th Nov 2008, 08:28 PM

2009's probably going to be the biggest year of my life. I'm moving an hour or so away from home (not a huge distance, but definitely away from my comfort zone) and starting university. Next year's going to be the year I become independent.

Dave · 10th Nov 2008, 08:30 PM

Moving, getting as far away as I can and going to Uni.

10th Nov 2008, 08:35 PM

Well, next SCHOOL year (August) I will move out of my mom's house, get a car, transfer from my community college to a small state university (that's in a very liberal town) and initiate coming out to someone in person (I've only come out through text and one person asked me while we were drunk).

Amy · 10th Nov 2008, 09:20 PM

- Keep working on my voice
- Get an agent in SF
- Audition for a TV show
- Fight against Prop. 8
- Write to Obama
- Go to the Inaguration
- Take ASL 2
- Take ASl 3 (and maybe 4)
- Take a gazillion college classes at LPC
- Exercise
- Swim and restart Yoga
- Help my mom recover from her knee replacement
- Come out to my aunt
- Ask a girl out
- Write my book
- Get an internship politics or teaching

Damn, I'll be busy. Thank the Lord I'm going to be in independent study.

James · 10th Nov 2008, 09:37 PM

Loose weight
Get my beginners & drivers licence
Buy a Camaro/Trans Am project car to work on

Peter · 11th Nov 2008, 07:53 AM

Spend less time on the computer - whether for work or pleasure, make a friend - a real one, one that I can actually touch.

11th Nov 2008, 07:56 AM

Have fun

xequar · 11th Nov 2008, 09:09 AM

Next year? Hell, I don't know what I'm doing tomorrow...

And besides, why put off the changes you want to make until next year? There's no time like the present!

Daniel · 11th Nov 2008, 09:15 AM

Next year I hope to achieve these goals:
-lose the 25 lbs (11 kilos) that I gained due to emotional issues
-increase my therapy time
-perform Beethoven's Sonata Op. 27, No.2 in C#minor (Moonlight, all three movements)
-attend my first semester of college
-finish that damn dress! (although most likely this will be done in December)

Mickey · 11th Nov 2008, 09:38 AM
