My secret new year resolutions!

 
 
  1. Sing a song with at least one person listening (no, I’ve never done it).
  2. Stop feeling guilty about not going jogging.
  3. Dance in the rain and jump in the puddle with my son.
  4. Sleep outdoors under the stars for a night.
  5. Go on a raw food diet for at least a month.
  6. Say no to everything that I don’t really want to do.
  7. Telling people that not making a ‘V’ sign with their hand every time their picture is taken will not result in the camera exploding in their face.
  8. Go on a news fast – no TV, no newspapers, no internet for a month.
  9. Be rude, cut a meeting short if it is not going anywhere.
  10. Shave off my chest hair.
  11. Grow a mustache.
  12. Write a letter to the editor of the Straits Times.
  13. Start a ‘I hate Golf’ group on Facebook. I bet I’ll get a couple of million people to join in no time!
  14. Go for at least one cheap $5 haircut.
  15. Go for my second bungee jump.
  16. Go on a cheap holiday – like really cheap.
  17. Watch a live cricket match.
  18. Just do nothing for a week (this includes checking mail, logging on to facebook, messaging on twitter).

Do you have secret resolutions to share?
