2010: No, This Isn't a Resolution-Type Post

It's a how-Tess-is-so-geeky-it-sickens-me-to-death -type post! :D HUZZAH! (Don't act like you're surprised.)

So, to prove I'm a huge liar, and I'm ~not~ a fat, lazy person who sits on her fat, lazy ass, I'm underlining the things I told myself I'd do in 2010:

Learn JavaScript, in which I hate. Hate, hate, hate. If I can turn it off in my browser, I feel unsafe. However, it can benefit my scripts and I, so I'm going to kick the bucket and do it. Get more active, though this isn't necessarily about weight, just about me getting for active and healthy. Can't hurt, and there's no limit.

While I won't expand on how I spent ten minutes digging through my old WordPress entries in my old databases–and it's just my luck that entry didn't make it over with the conversion to CMS Admin–I can safely say that I have actually completed both of those. While the latter has seen me going back and forth, up and down1, I ACTUALLY DID MY RESOLUTIONS.

And, yes, they're not hugely important, but I did it! To prove, again, that I am also a sucker for my own punishment and that I can't keep up a two-in-a-row resolution win streak, I present to you my expeditions2 of 2010.

  1. LEARN HOW TO FUCKING DRIVE. That's at the top. I don't care if I still struggle with enrolling in school, as long as I can travel to actually do that, my life shall be complete. I've had my car for five years, it's about time.
  2. Do something with my icon script that I may or may not have been developing for two years. Hannah » is the only person to have seen it, and it was horribly outdated then, so I'd like to see it actually become…dated? Redated? UPDATED.
  3. Write a sex scene! I haven't done this since 2005, so…yeah, maybe that's not a expedition FOR YOU, but it is for me! …STFU!
  4. Maybe turn that icon script I was may have mentioned into OOP. …I'm thinking this may be a FAILURE. Take my word for it, procedural coding is my OTP for many, many reasons.
  5. Make something called a portfolio. I'm not quite sure if anybody has heard of this, but it's something almost nobody wants to complete, and if it is completed it collects dust. Oh, I know! Let's make this before-last expedition a Let's-watch-as-many-TV-series'-as-humanly-possible expedition!
  6. My last expedition is private, but I will be revealing it once it's completed. Stay tuned, it's original and awesometastic and p0rny! (I added those first two to make it seem exciting.)

Let the lost ark of–I mean, “expedition”!–BEGIN!

On a partially serious note, I am also participating in: Project 365 » and am a developer everywhere. BY GODS, I WILL MAKE 2010 GREAT.

  1. « I blame us moving, even though we weren't moving for three months…
  2. « I call my resolutions “expeditions” because they a) sound more interesting and b) will make me actually want to do them like Indiana Jones had a son, versus me not wanting to because they're, indeed, actually resolutions.
