“Happy New Years everyone!” – Ben
2012, the year the world will end… unlikely. Even though right now I’m on a tropical paradise in Fiji I’m going to go over my 2011 resolutions from Jan 1st 2011.

New Years Resolutions for 2011:
- Lose weight – SUCCESS < I have been exercising, running and losing weight since July 2011.
- Catch up with old friends – SUCCESS < I have worked hard on making sure I’m keeping in touch with my friends and making new ones.
- Find some direction with my life – SUCCESS < I have decided that I really want to do medicine and have been studying hard for the GAMSAT exam in 2012.
- Do some photography / art – FAILURE < Whilst I love being creative, I have failed at actually forcing myself to do artistic pursuits. The best I’ve done is use instagram on twitter a bit.
- Learn a new life skill – SUCCESS < I have started updating my Lifesaving awards and very very very slowly learning Korean.
New Years Resolutions for 2012:
- Continue to lose weight – I’ve started on a path of weight loss and need to make sure I keep it up.
- Study like a demon for GAMSAT.
- Get into Medicine – how is that for a target… bam!
- Travel domestically and internationally with my gf – I hope to travel to Somoa and Korea in the near future, I also would like to visit Melbourne, Tasmania and some other places within Aus.
- Learn a basic level of Korean – Learning a language, not easy, but possible.
- Be more organised – Stop double/triple/quadruple booking events.
