I have the following things planned...

I'm going to the British Universities Indoor Archery competition in Feburary. Have been training a hellova lot for it because i'd love to bring something back for the team.

In April myself and my housemates are spending a few days in Budapest. I'd like a week but it all depends on the price of plane tickets really. I've always wanted to visit Hungary. Want to learn some of the language before I go.

Hopefully I shall be investing in some new photography equipment. A medium format camera and possibly a small digital to carry with me. I still refuse to leave film though.

I'm also planning to make a short film to hopefully submit to CAN, Leicester's film festival.

Lose some more goddamn weight.

What about you?

I intend on losing 30 more pounds (I've dropped 30 pounds since this past spring) so I can drop to the Heavyweight division for the Jiu-Jitsu tournament next November. Being a "light" Super-Heavyweight means I get manhandled something fierce...

I also hope to get my blue belt in Jiu-Jitsu by this time next year, but I'm not holding my breath.

I'd like a different job that paid more.

Finish my book completely. Don't get sidetracked by the other annoyingly fucking good ideas for crap I'm having right now no matter how well I could probably pull it off. I'm over halfway done this damn thing and I need to end it. I can give into this crap afterwards.

Going to Cuba in April. Must come home with ludicrous amounts of communist propaganda. That and make my liver curl into itself in a little fetal ball.

Fast for fun and spiritual development.

Become wealthy next September. This is actually on the calendar. I'm confused and expecting a meteor to hit or some sort of horrible tragedy to befall us, but if all goes well my family should be getting about a million dollars next fall and just saying that made me feel like I'm cursing myself.

Go for a PhD. What's more gratifying than being addressed as Dr. 'Sage?


  1. Get rid of my excess flub. I'm far from fat, but when I hang around guys who wear a size 2 or 4 it's hard to feel skinny.
  2. Accomplish something significant with my presidency while it lasts.
  3. Graduate high school, and set up a nice internship somewhere for the summer.
  4. Pray and hope that I've gotten into college.
  5. Don't fuck up at college.
  6. Figure out what I want to do when I grow up.

Since so many people are going into college, let me impart some advice. It's really easy to fuck up at college if you're not studious by nature.

Let's not get into "I'm so smart I don't HAVE to study." If you describe yourself as that, you're just fucking lazy. You may have some smurts but you're more of a slovenly whore than you are smart.

I'm part of that particular sect. I get good enough grades, but I could be doing a whole lot better if I wasn't such a lazy, procrastinating son of a bitch. It helps to do all your shit in advance, trust me, then you're not getting your ass licked by seven different assignments at once.

Also, remember that there is no "sure-fire" degree to take. A lot of artistic people will take business degrees when they hate business because they think it's a pretty safe bet. This is not a good idea, since it usually leads to burnout. Always take what you like. It's better to starve doing what you love than do okay doing what you hate. In other words, only do what you hate if it's guaranteed to get you a shitload of money.

Anyways, don't wind up having to go down on your professors to keep your grades up, like I did.

And don't wind up having to go down on Karnaj to keep him from exposing the secret that you went down on your professors to keep your grades up, like I did.

As for 2006:

1. Survive.
2. Possibly begin planning to take over the world. For real. I'm fucking serious this time. No, I wasn't serious last time. Put down that knife. And that gun. And that venomous tarantula.
3. Find a jorb. I needs moneys. Although this might fall under goal 2.

Early this year:
Slowly work on my resume and get a better job doing something that makes a difference in the world. More specifically, get a job that makes a difference for the better. Something that challenges me, too. Make the job in Cambridge or a place where I can walk out and meet friendly smart people my age during lunch. Make sure that the job doesn’t drain me so much that I act like I am now. (This may just mean switching departments, but we'll see)

Sell my house.

Join a gym and get a trainer. I’m a lot nicer person to be around when I’m in shape, not to mention I’m more alert, think more clearly, and feel a lot better in general. I’m turning into a boring person and something I don’t want to be, but I notice that and know how it’ll be easy to fix if I don’t let the problem grow.

Expand my network of friends.

I’m outgrowing my old hobbies. Find a new one. Maybe learn a language.

Setup my place to have parties for friends to come over and have a good time.

Later:
Look into the future. Getting my masters. Probably will start my masters in a year or two.

Start my own business.

Look into getting certified in skydiving. Maybe look into the feasaiblity of getting my own boat or look into getting a pilots licence.

Either learn to cook or have somoene come over weekly to cook FOR me. (stolen from led)

edit: Led, you plan on getting your own helicopter eventually?
