Groundhog's day resolutions

Happy Groundhog's Day, everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in so long; January was crazy. I was in the States for a couple weeks, then when I got back I was inundated with cover classes, since so many people were still on holiday/doing visa runs. So since I didn't post my resolutions on New Year's Day, I thought I'd take the time to post them now, in no particular order:

1. Write. I'd really like to get back to writing every day, if possible. Not necessarily anything important, but something, at least.
2. Keep better contact with friends and family at home. That includes posting more often on here-- ideally at least once a week. I'll try to make more smaller posts rather than fewer bigger posts. I've been on facebook more recently, mostly for this reason. I also want to buy some postcards to send.
3. Sleep less-- get up when I'm not tired instead of laying around in bed, which will cause me to fall back asleep and then have to wake up at some awkward point in my sleep cycle.
4. Keep up with hobbies, such as crochet, music, and reading. Cooking too. I've been good so far at this one-- I've been reading a lot on the metro and I played the guitar just last weekend, and I plan on cooking later this week.
5. Learn the art of small talk, and of pretending to be confident.
6. Work on being "fit" (both in the American sense and the British sense, where it just means "hot"). Exercise, eat right, work on my posture, and be good about wearing my retainer. I also want to cut down on some of my vices (e.g. Coca-cola).
7. Combat my internet addiction. I realize this goes against #1, but I'd like to actually turn off my computer for a day or two sometime.
8. Be nicer to friends and people I like. Not that I'm a mean person, but I could do with less snark and sarcasm.
9. Get organized, pull my shit together, and stop procrastinating. (Yes, I realize the irony in writing that in a post I meant to make a month ago.)
10. Learn Russian!! Seeing as that's the reason I came here in the first place. I can't take lessons yet, but I need to make an effort to watch Russian movies, read Russian newspapers or books, work in my grammar book, etc. I am organizing a Russian conversation group for this weekend, so I suppose I am working on it, but not nearly enough.

In case you are wondering, the groundhog would not have seen his shadow today in Moscow. Somehow I don't think that means spring is just around the corner, though.
