This coming wednesday is my 21st birthday, so huzzah for that! In the spirit of creating a new chapter etc, I’ve decided its time for an all new me. What was wrong with the old one? I’m kinda over him. More new!!
I need a new image. I used to hate shopping quite frankly, but I am born again! Apart from the still a bit broke factor, its time for a new image. Colourful, fun, vibrant, all the stuff my current clothes distinctly lack. I feel less of a desire to blend in, more of a desire to be me? That’s one way of putting it. So you know, new shoes, clothes etc - not exactly becoming a new Debs, but.. ![]()
Some people say well start eating different, or other random things - I dunno, I think I just need to deal with eating at home more vss always eating out for lunch etc. More healthy, cheaper, it can help pay for other stuff
Think I need to buy more music to be exposed to a wider range of genres. Sure I’ll stick with the central r&b theme but.. I need more variety in my life, so include that!
Exercising usually fits into this too. I’ve been a member of fitness first for like.. at least 1.5 years. What a rort, I hardly go these days - like I didnt go ONCE in something like 6 months last year. $50 a month. I can never bring myself to cancelling it, thinking ‘what if I want to go this week!’. I need to go to the gym a bit more, but otherwise the leg related exercises I need to do are all still done at home. Things are progressing well on that front; I’d say my walking is currently better than it was before I injured it late last year, and I expect that within a few months at this rate, it’ll be better than it has ever been in about a decade. So w00t to further progression, as difficult as it is!
What else does this new me involve. Well, a new phone! Somehow a new image lets me get a new phone, or maybe its a 21st present to myself, so umm.. cool! The SE K800 wont be out for some time, so I’m currently looking at switching away from voda off to the land of 3-’we dont care’ and grabbing a Motorola V3X over there. Used one today for the first time, damn sexy thing. Thicker than a V3 razr sure, but woohoo at a thin, sexy looking 3g phone. Problem is I just paid voda for another month, so I’m not in a hurry to switch over just yet, maybe at the end of the month!
So thats a summary of the goals for the new me. After spending the weekend realising that you cant solve everything with copious amounts of alcohol over several days, it turns out sometimes you have to actually fix them
Consider this the criteria to judge success off in the coming months…

Hey Adam, wishing you an early happy 21st! I’m sure you’ll have an absolute blast
Also ahve to say that its great that you are getting motivated to better improve yourself. Change is good. I’m trying to do the same for myself atm and its working a treat, feeling a lot happier and more satisfied in myself.
Anyways, have a great 21st and drink one for me

Copious amounts of alky CAN’T fix things?! Are you sure you’re living on the same planet as the rest of us?
