Expectations for 06

[IceRose]

Well I started this thread to know what are the expectations people might have for this new year, I mean there is a lot of stuff from what I read, som of us are going to college, some of us are getting new jobs and I just wanted to know what you plan to do in year 2006?

[COLOR=Purple]2006 is going to be total hell for me, but Im gunna enjoy it >:) Im gunna get back into being a crazy *** bastard because I seem to be more creative that way (but don't worry, Ill keep it at school ;) ) I plan to get SOMETHING publishe before the end of the school year so I can make enough money to get out of school.[/COLOR]

Well in 2006, I plan on studying really hard in college and focusing on my degree. I also intend on being happy next year and finding more friends and maybe even a boyfriend!!

[Goodbye, Face]

[font=trebuchet ms]January 20th or 21st, one of those days, it's unlcear... but one of those days, first semester ends. One of those days, I get my life back. I have all my important classes this semester, Art, Science, Math, and English. Homework from the three core classes everyday, consisting of an essay, chapters to read, pages of math to do, and hours of struggling. Not to mention I have to stay after in art class until 5PM on most days to finish anything I do in that class.

Next semester is my chill semester, I have one core class, a freshman one: Civics and Economics (ELPSA). The rest of the classes? Creative writing, guitar, and Spanish I, which I've already taken in middle school.

I plan to work on a webcomic and also do other artwork to sell. I have an outlet at Solaris, a local tapas bar. I know people who work there, and the artwork there sells for astronomical amounts, I look at some of the sold ones and I think I can do better. Thus, I found myself a job. ^^

This spring I plan on getting back into skateboarding. I'm also able to focus on foods that are healthy, as opposed to foods that are quick and easy to make, thus, I should be able to lose some weight, which is one of my ultimate goals.

Other than that, it's all up to fate, yeah?[/font]

[color=darkviolet] I just want 2006 to be better than 2005. It won't be too hard. I doubt anything could be as bad as this year has been.

My daughter was in the hospital, my ex husband cheated on me and told me he was divorcing me over the phone, and his new girl is harrassing me. Yep, the only thing that could make 2006 suck more would be getting shot. And I plan on avoiding getting shot.

I just want to get my finances in order, get the rest of my belongings back- or be reimbersed for my belongings and maybe start a new relationship. But the relationship thing is at the bottom of my list. [/color]

[Kenshin DX]

I plan to get out of bed in the morning. One step at a time.

[James]

[font=franklin gothic medium]2006 is going to be a big year for me. On Tuesday I'm moving out and it's further than I've ever been before in terms of actually living somewhere. So that's going to be very interesting. I've had a lot of things to prepare so that I'm ready for it, but now I'm pretty much set.

So it's going to be very strange to be so far away from everyone. But I'm sure I will get used to it. ^_^;[/font]

[size=1]I shed a theatrical tear for you, smile, and hope you'll be going to college.

2006 will mark 20 years on this earth for me. A new year of classes, hopefully in which I'll be starting my clinicals. New Years Resolutions I'll break. And more of the same piss-and-moan crap from people.
Other than that, hopefully it will be the same as 2005.
I thought it was a good year.[/size]

[wayofthreversed]

2006 will hold a lot of new things for me. First month of the year I will be couch surfing at my friends home in the city (Sault Ste. Marie). Then I will get a job and move into my own place after a month. Hopefully I will have started kendo by then and will have things to do in the day while I wait to go to work. Then during the summer if I can get some time off I will go to Japan to see my friend; if I can not then she might come here to see me :animesmil. Other then that I do not have that many planes I am most likely going to spend a lot of money on anime, manga, and some new video games.

[Stark]

Let's see...next year I hit the legal voting age around here--18--, and I'll graduate high school and go to college full time. I'll also be on my second year at college by that time, so I intend on getting everything straight so I know what degree I'll be working on.

I also plan on getting something down on my computer in it's complete form. I have a lot of half formed story ideas running through my head on a consistant basis, but I haven't had much time lately to take care of them. Come next week I'll be able to continue, but I need a lot of time to complete something.

I also hope to come to terms with my issues in the head so I can continue on with a dear friend of mine who is hinting that he want's a romantic relationiship. You know who you are, so I won't name any names, even though he does hand out in the Arena a lot around here.

Of course, with high school so soon to being over, I'll need something to do. And a huge paradigm shift. It will be interesting, to say the least, but I'm up for the challenge.

[Dhampir]

In 2006, I just plan too keep out of all the highschool DRAMA. Last year was terrible, and I think I should have learned my lesson by now.

[Riku]

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=1][COLOR=Navy]Well, there are a lot of different that I'm waiting for next year.

1) My step-brother is coming to live with me and family during this summer, so I can't wait until he comes. He likes playing video games and doing a lot of the same stuff that I do, so it'll be great. I'll probably hang out with him than my other sister. [/COLOR] [/SIZE] [/FONT] :animesmil

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=1][COLOR=Navy]2) Graduating from the 11th grade. I can and can't wait until I'm a senior because it means that I'm exiting student life and soon entering the real world, so I hope that I'm ready for it.

And the last thing that I can't wait for is Kingdom Hearts II and maybe even FFVII: Advent Children!! I know we've all been waiting a hell of a long time, so when those two come out, I'll already be in the store with money in hand and buying my copy of these two games. Heh heh[/COLOR][/SIZE].[/FONT] :catgirl: :animesmil

[sakurasuka]

[SIZE=1]Wow... I have no clue.

I might actually graduate this year *Shock* I'm homeschooled, so I just work through the summer and stuff. I'm over two years ahead of all my peers... It's really wierd =/ But I haven't even taken the SATs yet, so I might have to wait 'till next year to graduate. Yeah, 15's a bit young to be going to college.

I'm really hoping to do more artistic-like stuff. Painting, sculpting, and the like. I'm also hoping I'll pass my College Prep. Literature class. That would be a plus.

I dunno. I guess I kinda want to hang out with my best friend Josh more, and maybe get to know/hang out with this new guy I met not too long ago...[/SIZE]

[color=crimson]I'd suggest you wait. I'm in a similar boat to you [graduated early via homeschooling] and I'm waiting until I have a concept of what I want my future to be before I leap into college. SATs are a breeze so don't fret about them.

Uh, 2k6. Job. Yeah, I'm going to get a job somewhere tolerable. Aside from that it's kind of an off year for interesting events, lol. Take things as they come.

Otherwise, I think existing will take up most of my time unless God decides to smite all of us for being loud and smelly.

Good times for everyone.[/color]

[Shane12_01]

There are many things I need to accomplish in 06. I need to graduate, and possibly save up to go on a fat road trip with my freinds, get back and get into colledge :animecry:
I expect it to be one of the best years of my life, but I can only hope at this point. :animeswea

[Gavin]

[SIZE=1]Interesting, most interesting.

My expectation for the coming year are pretty simple, like Chibi I just want next year to be a good deal better than this year has been. Hopefully my coming trip to Tasmania will go well and give me some new perspective on life which will be useful for me, perhaps that sounds a tad philosophical for a few months in the Tasmanian summer but such is life.

After coming back from Down Under I hope my efforts to study up for returning to finish secondary school later in the year works out, as do certain other pursuits related to school. Honesty if I got those three, and school starts well in September, what with me being nineteen and in my younger brother's year, I wouldn't really care how the rest of the year pans out as I'll have done the more important things.[/SIZE]

[SaiyanPrincessX]

[SIZE=1]I'm saving up for a car. I do need my drivers license still, but that I can get any time so I'm concentrating on saving for a car. Since I'd have nothing to drive even if I did have my license. I should have gotten it three years ago, which I regret. So I'm hoping for that.

Then theres college. I'll probebly end up going to the local college because its cheaper, but I still have no idea what I want to do.

2005 was a good year for me so I hope this year can surpass it. :animesigh[/SIZE]

At the beginning of the semester I had really difficult classes. I dropped most and took dance classes. Before you think I'm lazy, I had an english and sociology class that was pretty tough.

I'm putting off math until next year and I'm taking a high english class, Astronomy, Pyschology, Philosophy and Anthropology to kick in some more of my general education and actually get on track. Oh and we get a long break before this semester which would be good, if my teacher didn't give me a 20 page final in sociology due the day before the semester begins. *shakes fist* So I guess my revelation would be that I'm going to have to work really hard this semester. Hopefully then I'll be able to transfer to Sacramento State. So much for my break. Hah! [/SIZE]

[TheShinje]

[color=crimson] 2006 is the year in which I will get my license, have a better job than what I am doing currently, and it will also be the year I get things organised for going flatting and finding myself a love partner. But then agian, I said that about 2004 and 2005, so I'm not sure how reliable I am.

Whatever the weather, the girl/boyfriend thing ranks highly among my resolutions. [/color]

[renayiiq]

I wish to hopefully make the try-outs for the step team, get into boxing, lose an inch of fat around my stomach and lose the fat on my upper arms, thighs, and lower back, and gain muscle instead. I also wish to be accepted with the Foreign Exchange Student program, to hopefully be sent off to France so I can learn more about the language and culture. I also hope to improve my grades and to bring my GPA up to at least a 3.5. I want to get my driver's license, as well.
That's about it, for now.

[Sinistra]

[SIZE=1]2006 is going to be a heck of a year for me. More commemorative than anything. On July 1st, I will be leaving to go to Japan for two weeks as a Student Ambassador for a federal program called [B]People to People[/B]. I think that is probably the second most important thing going on next year.

The first being the fact that '06 will be my graduating year of high school, and it's going to feel really strange. Talk about tough...I don't want to decide my major just yet because I don't know what I want to do for the rest of my life. '06 also means that I'll be able to get my license, and hopefully, inherit the car that my family has. Car = Job. Job = Money. Yay.

Well, James, at least you'll have us!

Anyways, what am I doing this year? Not a fat lot. I'm planning on moving out with my best friend, maybe try and find a new job, and just stay alive. maybe find a new boyfriend.

That's about it.

[Magus]

I have no idea.... I didn't really plan much for this year. I'm more of the "take it as it comes" type of guy. (Whenever I plan something it sort of backfires.... so I say "whatever" or something equalled to that.)

Who knows.... Hopefully I can maintain a job for more than 5 months this time around without getting laid off.

One things for sure.... I'll do alot more traveling. (1 l or 2 l's?) I don't think I got out much last year.... Which is more than likely why 05 was boring.

[celestialcharm]

[COLOR=DarkOrchid]I hope I can get over my anxiety. I keep getting nervous over every single thing!

I hope I can stop procrastinating, and start doing my projects and assignments early. Actually, I'm kind of procrastinating right now... But, at least alot of my project's done! Well, some... It's due on monday... :animedepr

I'm going to France and Spain for March break on a school trip. I better have fun! I better not freak out or anything! My brother is going too, so it'll be fun!

If my anxiety isn't too bad, I'll try to get myself a job. I need me some moolah! But, before worrying about that, I need to make sure my marks are up! I will be in grade 12 in September... Arg, my classes are going to be so hard next semester! I have baking, English, Chemistry and Biology. I wanted to change Baking into a higher grade Math, but the couniller told me not to...

Oh, and I never got to go camping with my school last year! Due to work (summer job), so I will go this year no matter what!

I think that's all... wait, and get a gold in Archery. I think I am expecting too much for this year. Oh well! A girl can dream.[/COLOR]
