More on 2005 (but probably the Last of It)

Ops! I actually did have some New Year's resolutions for 2005 (I wrote in a recent survery that "I never have NY resolutions").

Let's see how I did:

- Not watch any movies with the following actors: Angelina Jolie, Tom Hanks, Goody Goody Junior, Tom Hanks, Nicholas Cage, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.
I failed miserably with this one: I watched one of the worst movies ever made at the end of the Summer, You've Got Mail, which had both Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in it. I know some people on my LJ who like these actors/movie, so I apologize for not being able to stomach them (yet I did watch the thing till the end... maybe I'm deceiving myself when I say I don't like them?)

- Not watch any movies where Tom Cruise plays a good guy or/and a heterosexual.
I didn't watch any of his movies, though it could be said that I failed again because I had at least two posts dedicated to him in this journal.

- Watch more obscure "foreign" movies.
Definetly failed this one. Foreign films came to me through BBC4, or DVDs borrowed/given by friends. But nothing stood out as obscure.

- Be more like Miss Jane Marple and solve tons of mysteries.
No crimes happened in my parish in 2005. I was able to dedicated myself more to the church, my knitting and indulge in harmless gossip with my neighbours.

- Swim loads.
No problems with this one.

- Eat less chips and crisps.
I cut down on my chips intake yet I was still buying crisps with my lunch everyday. Bad me.

- Get a job that makes me feel passionate, excited and/or happy.
Oh yes! Go Team Ollie!

- Cut down my Livejournal friends' list without feeling guilty and/or mean.
Like my gut, my LJ friends' list keeps expanding and there's nothing I can do about it.
