My New Year Day's Resolutin
Hi All
New Year Day had come again. I made my New Year Day's resolution yesterday. I'd made it last year too. As I made it only about learning English last year, I decided to make it about my whole life this year.
1 Fit in fitness and keep my weight
I believe that I'm able to be in good shape if I can stop eating between meals. Since I was a child, I liked eating snacks and big meals. So I made many efforts to loose weight. Now I weigh 68 kilograms and it's almost OK. I always have good appetite. It's very difficult for me to overcome it.
2 Learn my hobbies deeply
2-1 to make progress in learning English
2-1-1 I'll do followings everyday.
(1) I'll read an article on web news paper
(2) I'll listen News on CNN, BBC, and NBC etc at least 5 minutes.
(3) I'll try to utter News and record and listen to it.
(4) I'll write my journal.
2-1-2 I'll post to Blogging English and write to three friends in English once a month.
2-1-3 I'll take English conversation class twice a month.
2-1-4 I'll read three e-books this year. All books was left over from last year.
2-2 to improve my skill to play bridge
I attended many tournaments last year and I got 15 MP( master points) last year. I'll attend bridge school and tournaments as many as possible this year.
2-3 to play my ocarina better than now
I practised to play ocarina but I couldn't make big progress on it last year. I try to make progress on it this year too. I'd like to show you my performance at the end of this year.
Regards,
Sadamu
