For my part, I've replaced optimism and believing the best of people by default with a grin and the absolute 100% certainty that if they cannot find a pig to fuck, they will buy some bacon and play oinking noises on YouTube.

I hope to be happy, single or with someone.
I hope to maintain my grades, start my undergrad thesis and register for the GREs.
I hope to ring in my 30th year by taking it TO THE WALL.

-Find a job that won't make me depressed. The last two were unpleasant, yet somehow valuable experiences. Hoping for better!

-Get my act together! That means make a monthly meal plan/food budget, and start waking up early.

-Become transportationally potent! Ride my bike more, and maybe learn how to drive, just for the sake of knowing how to. It's not I'm going to pilot one of those rolling death-coffins for fun.

-Make new friends.

I'm going to keep my "Discordian-Zen-mindset" as my only mindset.
No more self-created depression (everything sucks man and all that) or "nihilistic and suicidal" drinking.
It seems highly possible to accomplish this.

I'm going to buy drums. Something simple. No doubble-bass or 10 toms needed right away.

And I really wish I will have the courage, time and the money to take singing lessons. I can sing somewhat, but I think I could do much better if there was a pro telling me the pro stuff.

I'm going to teach my daughter how to swim.

I wish I will be able to change my sleeping patterns, because they make no sense now.
I am very calm

'd like to start playing/making music more - if I could pull it off the extra cash would be nice.  Squaring away latent demonic torments might help me live again, however, I still have faith there may be something pathologically appealing to perpetually re-enacting the same dramatic attempts with different people while expecting not realize how that will never change...

Listen to The Cure some more.  That'll fix you right up.

Starting my third business from nothing.

Third time's the charm, right?
Formerly something else...

I'm hoping it never fucking snows in 2012.

And that my new office-mate discovers I'm a horrible bastard and demands to be relocated.

THIS.

HOLY SHIT, THIS.

I hope I come home from Florida and it's no colder than 40 for the rest of the season.
