2013 Resolutions Score-card
1. "Weigh 65kg!"
Verdict: Good. Should be hovering between 62-65kg, but I hope the above-60kg level isn't mainly because of the sedentary lifestyle.
2. "Self study Japanese. Attempt Level 2 of JLPT."
Verdict: Failed. Blaming it on the lack of time, and also the lack of motivation to keep up with the learning.
3. "Further improving Cantonese, by watching TVB dramas."
Verdict: Fair. I probably only caught 1-2 dramas over the year, so any improvement in the language will be minimal.
4. "400km running mileage. Improve on timings for half-marathon and full-marathon."
Verdict: Fair. I clocked 412.8km over the year amidst the working life, which is good. On the other hand, timings for both the 21km and 42km were slower in 2013.
5. "Read 3 books!"
Verdict: Failed. Probably the only book that I read was "Rules of Life" by Richard Templar. I attempted to read up on Financial literacy, but was a little bogged down with work.
6. "Feel positive and have motivations to look forward to at work. Not to be dreading work."
Verdict: Failed. The only positive part, was that I have very fun-loving and concerned colleagues.
7. "Find time for 'outside' things. E.g. Volunteering / New hobbies."
Verdict: Good. There were certainly times to take part in activities. I also dedicated myself to weekly dharma classes. And not forgetting, my new commitment in T.H.I.S. Buddhist Film Festival 2014.
8. "Be a more patient person. Both at home and outside."
Verdict: I don't know how to rate, but I believe I did so?
9. "Get rid of ills like procrastination, and be punctual."
Verdict: Fair. Still trying!
10. "Be proper and presentable, both online and offline, both real and virtual worlds."
Verdict: I can't remember why I made this resolution last year?? But I believe I wasn't too improper and un-presentable, right?
It certainly doesn't quite look like a good scorecard, but anyhow, a new list is replacing it this year!
