I'm not normally one for resoulutions but this year there's several things I've been needing to start doing and this seems like a good as time as any to practice a bit of self discipline.
1, spend at least one hour every day studying Chinese. Hopefully this will be a paragraph from 红楼梦 character practice and at least a 2-3 times a week sitting down for a couple of serious hours of studying classical. As well as attending a Mandarin class.
2, start getting regular exercise again and hopefully getting a bit thinner.
3, try to stay on budget better until I find a new job.
4, stop this habit of social smoking which I seem to have fallen into in the past couple months.
I think that was it. It was great fun having a couple weeks free from job hunting just to relax, see friends, read and play video games. I think I just need to structure my time a bit more productivley and start seriously focusing on my Chinese as it really is the most important thing for me in order to be able to do a phd.
I hope everyone had a fun New Year's eve and that the New Year will bring lots of happiness for everyone!
新年快乐!!
