  • Left BrainLeft Brain
    Hi everyone.We here at the Beauty Brains hope you had a great New Year celebration.This year it is our goal to answer more questions, improve our site (and forum) design, and finally get our book published. Then of course, invent a lotion that reverses wrinkles, a shampoo that stops color from washing out, and an eyeshadow that adjusts to the color of clothes you're wearing.Oh yeah, and lose 10 lbs.How about the rest of you?

    Lose weight and save more money. Also, redo our kitchen and bathrooms. I already see some conflicts looming.

    Also, read more. I'd like to see the stack of books on my nightstand getting smaller instead of larger.

    Start Running again
    Eating 9 fruits and veggies a day

    Get a big portion of my novel written (although not forcing it)
    Save Money

    Purple-It's hard to save money when you want to redo a room or 2! :wink: Oh it's so hard
  • PurpleRulesPurpleRules
    I've rationalized it by telling myself it's an investment. But it still means the money's not in the bank.

    happy new year to you all! I only have a few resolutions:

    1. Drink more water (not water mixed with yeast, hops and barley; just plain water :tongue:)
    2. Keep my hands off my face.
    3. Go back to dancing. (Flamenco and belly dance)
    4. No more overspending.
    5. Learn more Japanese.
    6. Learn some Romanian.
    7. Consider applications for possible suitors. (this is still in the air though, haven't decided if i want to be bothered just yet.:tongue:)
    8. Stretch more.

    Hope everyone has a great 2008 and gets everything they want and deserve!

    Here are my resolutions:

    1. Call mom and dad more often, he he...
    2. Commit to buying my first townhouse or house
    3. Speak up and to be more assertive!
    4. Run a half-marathon

    Happy New Year and best of luck to all!
  • catecate
    bobanerd--do you have a particular half miler in mind? (You're in NJ right?) I am kind of a runner...nowhere near a half miler yet, but I just ran my first 5k in October. I used to run cross country in HS, BUT it has been an uber long time since then... Anyway, I am ready to start running again and maybe try a 10k in the spring. It just needs to NOT be 6 degrees in the morning when I want to actually run :smile:
  • potentavive
    Oh man, I can't believe it's the new year already :surprised:

    My goals are to exercise (and hopefully lose weight) and spend less money overall. My friend is an avid runner and she's been encouraging me to start running too...but I'm terribly out of shape, so it'll be a slow process :smile:
  • catecate
    What I really meant was half marathon NOT half miler! lol!
  • KarenKaren
    My New Years resolution (and I'm not joking on this) is to stop spending so much money on makeup. From now on, I've decided I'm only going to jot down the name of a new product that catches my attention but I'm not going to buy it unless I need it.
  • Fitness Brain
    Thanks left brain for alerting me of this one
    my goal is to keep hand cream on my desk!!

    and write my papers up so I can graduate!!
    I have soo much to do this year
    slowly starting up...

    Also, I think I will keep my lats year's as well, pay my credit cards
    I did manage to do this by november, but now after the holidays
    the bills pilled up again

    One of our goals for this year is to make the Forum better. The Left Brain just added a plug in that gives us this cool tool bar when you post. Thanks  Lefty!
  • catecate
    I love love love that there are components of the IPA under the special character sections!  This is very cool!  Thanks Lefty!

    I resolve to keep less crap in my purse. Do I really need 6  lipglosses and lipsticks in my purse? No. Nor do I need 5 or 5 perfume atomizers. The eyelash curler can probably go too.
    If I have any luck organizing my purse, I might take a shot at my kitchen. Three junk drawers is probably excessive.

    Purple!!!
    OMG. THAT is funny. I have two junk drawers and I thought THAT was excessive. But never do I have too many lip colors in my pocketbook. OR lip balm. I have withdrawal symptoms if I  cannot find them!
    I am not making any resolutions. I just want to lose weight but not  making any promises. I lost 3 in a week!!! Yeah, me... but not resoluting it.
