Resolution 10 & 11.
I’m not sure about posting these. They say 95% of people break their resolutions by the end of the year. 1/3 don’t seem to make it past March. They also say one should limit the number of resolutions one’s makes. Hmm, maybe I should add, “Don’t set myself up for failure” as number 12?
Anyway,
10. Learn to play the piano to Grade 2 level by the end of the year. I have always wanted to be able to play the piano. When I was little, the funds weren’t there and when the funds started flowing, the time dried up. As I head for the 3-0 milestone, I figure I should be able to start crossing things off my wishlist of accomplishments. My brother has been giving me lessons - up to lesson 4 today - which has the added bonus of costing very little (I feed him). Last lesson, he told me we had just finished covering a year’s worth of chords in 3 weeks, to which I inquired why we had to go through it so fast? His response? “You’re not 3.” Fair ‘nuff.
11. Speak French at beginner’s level.
Now, were it not for also wanting to become a doctor, I’d be more ambitious with the levels I aim for, but I’m sure once uni starts up again, I’ll be struggling to keep all these balls in the air!
