Mine would be

• Yell less when people do something that they don't need to do and screw something fun up for me
  
• Get at least 1 of my songs/arrangements published
  
• The biggest one.....GO ON A DIET
  

How about you

if you're only 9 years old then why do you need to go on a diet?! Admittedly some younger kids should be stopped from eating a lot of the bad stuff they do- but a kid that young shouldn't be worrying about that sort of thing really... their parents should be perhaps.

I don't know. I'm concerned either way- either you lied about your age or you're concerned about body image at a very young age.

How did everyone spend thier New Years Eve? And did you enjoy yourselves?

Munchkinman, if you are actually 9 or 10 years old then you need to stop the whole diet thing right now. I've been encouraged (by my mum) since I was 10/11 to watch what I eat, and I'm beginning to think that if she hadn't done that I wouldn't be overweight now. For 10 years I've felt guilty about everything vaguely unhealthy that I've eaten, even at holidays, birthdays... all the time. It's a horrible way to live. I have always felt that I have to hide what I eat from my parents and friends, leading me to binge constantly, hiding food wrappers all over the place, spending all my money on junk food. I've been on every stupid diet there is out there, and always put on more than I've lost because I end up binging again.

I honestly think that if my mum had never encouraged me to watch what I was eating I would naturally have lost weight as I got older and had a much more positive attitude to food.

This is the first time I have ever admitted any of this to anyone, but I feel that I can because I actually do now have a better attitude to food. Before Chrsitmas I decided I had to change the way I am, and that Christmas would be my last blow out. I forgot about everything for 2 weeks, and I haven't felt guilty about food once, and it's been the best feeling in the world. As of monday, my life changes. I have food and exercise plans and plenty of determination.

That turned into a bit of an epic. Anyway, that's one of my resolutions. My others are:
*try much harder with work and don't leave everything to the last minute
*watch my money more carefully
*resist all intoxicating substances (except alcohol!)

I just started watching this tv programme called How To Look Good Naked and it's so good. I don't think it will be on in the US and there's not much on YouTube but it's the most feel good show ever. It's like Hairspray for an hour a week. It's not about losing weight or having surgery or changing your body in any way, it's about looking at the shape you have and learning how to dress to show it off. The presenter is this guy called Gok Wan and he's amazingly camp (he is sooo like one of my friends it is scary), and he just makes you feel so good about yourself. I'm really really addicted to this show and I think everyone should watch it! Girls because it will just make you feel great, and guys because it will teach you how love a woman's body

I've been known to be turned away from Dr. offices before because I was so frightened of the needle that they didn't want to have me as a patient.

It's... bad.

So. I have this paragraph in an essay I'm referencing:

"...an important distinction between conceptual space and lived space. Conceptual space is abstract, geometric, and objectively measured, a kind of context or ether within which places, people and things exist. Lived space, by contrast, is the preconceptual and meaningful spatial experience of what phenomenologists call "being-in-the-world"."

The way I understand this, 'conceptual space' would be what I, as an architect, design on a piece of paper. This would then become 'lived space' once someone was living in it.

I'm worried about getting an epidural (not that I'm planning on it, but I'm not opposed to it either.) They inject the medicine into your spine and yeah... it scares me. At least there is no way I could watch it!

Well... that's all TV. I have an uncanny ability to separate the difference between television and real life.

It's weird how able I am to do that.

James....are you perhaps Acey in disguise?
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, don't worry about it...or just check out the very first post in the 'general chinwagging' thread.

also, i forget who said it, but whoever said they couldnt understand JamesMc's posts....umm, i understood it fine. i dont know who keegan and whoever are, but the post still made sense. Pan and Yero talk about people named Kevin and whatever. i dont know who they are either, but the posts still make sense.
anyway, moving on....

rave: i am very much enjoying my new job. granted its only been 2 days, but i am still enjoying it.

rave: i got paid today. yes, i have only been there 2 days, but i guess today is payday, so there ya go!

rant: waited 45 minutes for my bus home today! i usually only wait about 15-20 minutes. It was freezing cold. my toes were so numb. they hurt ALOT when they were thawing out. i was pissed off and cold and tired.

rant: and when i got home, my sister was on the phone with our dad. she asked me what was wrong and i swore and then my dad gave me a lecture on swearing over the phone, from the other end of the country! i am 22 years old!! lay off. man, did not need that as soon as i got home. ugh.

rave: am now lying in warm, cozy bed, ready to sleep very soon.

rant: where is Twyz? i miss her tremendously.

rave/rant(?): that might only be like the 7th time i've used the word tremendously in my entire life.

just a quick note for project runway lovers out there. i was talking to a family friend online today and she mentioned that her cousin actually WON Project Runway Canada. His name is Evan Biddell. anyway, if you're interested, here is his section of the website for PRCanada. http://www.slice.ca/Shows/ProjectRunwayCanada/Designers/Designer1.aspx?SectionId=104

some of stuff is actually really nice. i think so anyway.
