My 2012 New Year’s Resolutions
I guess I should create a quick blog post before I go out this evening and before this year is over. Sadly, I was unsuccessful at accomplishing this year’s goals (I blame it on the new job and my cat) but I promise I will resolve a few of these items next year! Also, stay tuned for a blog post on how to start your own electronic/synth pop band.

Last Year’s
- Launch Filmbuild - Fail
- Sell TampaSportsFitness.com, asking price is $600 - Fail, I bumped it up to $1,000 because friends and family members are saying it’s worth more than $600. I need to find an unbiased appraisal service.
- Buy a Canon 7D EOS when FilmBuild becomes successful - Fail, still pending on the launch of FilmBuild
- Take up boxing, I started by joining a Boxing Gym - Fail, but I did take up another sport that is keeping me active: Tennis
- Visit another country - Fail, it’s not going to happen anytime soon but my buddies and I are talking about going to Vegas next March, does that count?
- Blog more - Fail
- Make my own soap, the recipe will be based on my late Grandpa’s recipe - Fail
- Build a robot , possibly based off the Arduino platform - Fail, but I made major progress on it recently

Last Year’s
- Build a Facebook App - Fail
- Work on my movie magic app (People don’t believe in this one, but I do.)- Success, but it still hasn’t been launched yet and it was rebranded as FilmBuild!
- Read The Great Gatsby-Epic Fail, I kept falling asleep. I should take the book to Star Bucks with me , that’s where I can finish it. I also started reading Ender’s Game
- Lay off the Chinese food (Damn, I can go for some crab rangoon right now.) - Fail, they built a Panda Express next door.
- Visit another country - Fail
- Blog more - Success, but still has room for improvement
- Give back to the community (online and offline)-Success, 5 times offline and several times online. I will definitely continue volunteering
Steven, you are fully capable of deciding your own destiny. The question you face is: which path will you choose? This is something only you can decide.

Syntax Highlighting
I’m testing a new plugin at the moment for my website, hopefully it will highlight the code I post on stevenwaters.com
$(document).ready(function(){
//This initializes jQuery!
});
