What would you like to change about yourself? Maybe you're in the midst of change right now. Nothing about your physical appearance. And nothing outrageous if at all possible lol.

I'd like to be less emotional. And I'd like to quit over analyzing things. I'd also like to quit my paranoia crap. Unfortunately, I sometimes butcher reality so badly that it takes on the shape of a lie and I start to believe it. {this may be common with a lot of women though.} I'd also like to become more independent. And I'd like to be more domestic! I've lived alone for so long that I just don't care to cook or clean for myself like most women do for their husbands / families.

k u go

Punk.of.Ages · 06-15-2009, 05:33 PM

I need a job. I need to get back on my feet. I've been working on that for a while now.

wooÐs · 06-15-2009, 05:59 PM

Deffo not alone on that one. It's rough for a lot of people right now.

Xerxys · 06-15-2009, 06:04 PM

I want to go to school but I keep on procrastinating. I hate being illetirate like I am now. I have an entry level job that I have gone as far as I can get and I still feel like shit despite the fact that I like the job.

LoganSnake · 06-15-2009, 06:16 PM

I need to consider other people sometimes.

thespian86 · 06-15-2009, 06:32 PM

My lack of consistency as a human being.
My ass.

Maybe start with a class or two or something?

I can also be self-centered. It's a hard habit to break. For me, anyways.

ngdawg · 06-15-2009, 06:39 PM

I wish I was more motivated to take care of myself. Quit the cigs, get fit, yada yada.

It's what I'm going to do, ultimately it will mean putting less hours at work and earning less.

Another thing I have to change is my addiction. My love for money has almost got me killed at some point in time.

I wish I'd stop procrastinating - I've been meaning to kill Xerxys since July of '07.

I know :/.
I've been smoking for 16 years now. Tried to quit a couple times and I really didn't handle it well at all. I thought I was going to either die or kill someone.

Baby steps. Baby steps. lol

CinnamonGirl · 06-15-2009, 07:17 PM

No physical stuff, huh? Well, damn.

Sometimes, I wish I wasn't so nice. People tend to take advantage.

Crack · 06-15-2009, 08:35 PM

My penis is waaaay too large, I would not mind at all if it were a lot smaller. Wait, you said nothing physical. Hmmm, perhaps I am a bit too humble sometimes.

biznatch · 06-15-2009, 08:59 PM

Damn it, Crack stole the obligatory dick size joke.

I'd like to be more decisive, less procrastinating. Also I'm always self conscious, and too often apologetic. I'd like to be "going somewhere," ambitious, but at this point in my life I don't even feel like I know who I am. It's very confusing.

I didn't wanna be the one to say it...

hah! I was going to say it... just didn't get around to it yet...

Punk.of.Ages · 06-16-2009, 02:38 AM

Xerxys has quite the fan club, it seems...

ShaniFaye · 06-16-2009, 02:47 AM

I'd like to be more like World's King's online persona

maybe then people would stop telling me Im "sweet" ugh I hate that word

Giant Hamburger · 06-16-2009, 05:48 AM

I need to make more money if I am going to complete my giant robot...
and kill Xerxys before it's too late.

Shauk · 06-16-2009, 06:01 AM

You? Sweet? HAH!

I'm in the midst of change right now. We'll see how it turns out. So far, so good.

genuinegirly · 06-16-2009, 07:42 AM

I'd like to spend more time pursuing creativity and working in gardens with my evenings - step away from the research doing something productive rather than reading liesure books and feeling like a slob. I suppose these are more changes of habits than a change in personality.

---
Shani, if I can't call you sweet, you're going to have to give me an ample supply of other adjectives to use instead.

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother

I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between

ahahahahaha

Ourcrazymodern? · 06-16-2009, 08:18 AM

I'd learn to be more tolerant.

-deathboy- · 06-16-2009, 09:48 AM

after drinking heavily since around age 14, i am finally 2 months into being sober now. a lot of moons have come and gone since those early days and it feels strange not having my mind pickled. i'm retraining myself to do things without the alcohol crutch. one thing i am enjoying immensely though is not including recovering from a hangover in my weekend plans!

Shauk · 06-16-2009, 10:16 AM

i'm in the opposite boat, i need to get hammered soon. I only say that cuz I rarely ever drink, and when I do, it's a social thing, so thats my way of saying I need to get the hell out of the house, lol.

Xerxys · 06-16-2009, 11:03 AM

This is getting out of hand ... people, I have to remind you of this in case one of these over-achiever folk here actually succeed, my instructions .... >>LINK<<

Shauk · 06-16-2009, 11:10 AM

i dunt have permeeesions to view that link.

botabota · 06-16-2009, 11:11 AM

I have to stop being a lazy ass and actually go to work on time.
I need to be nicer to my SO.

Congratulations!

Doing the Steps?

-deathboy- · 06-16-2009, 07:08 PM

sheer will power and a beautiful wife for support.
it's been an interesting trip so far. feels like i have made leaps and bounds and yet, seems like i just had a shot of tequila in my hand. i have attended a couple of them support meetings in the past, and if it works for some i say "kudo's!", but that's not my scene. i just stick my head into my music and take out my aggression in a soothing fashion.

tasty gore

squeeeb · 06-16-2009, 07:15 PM

i'd like to be cooler, i'd like to be able to talk to women without sounding like a compete tool. other than that, i don't want to change, i'm pretty happy with how i am now.

Well I think that's very cool. Good for you. Music's deffo a great outlet, whether you're playing or composing. Yay

!

Redlemon · 06-17-2009, 09:01 AM

I'd like to be able to small-talk.

LordEden · 06-17-2009, 09:33 AM

I wish my very low self-confidence matched the I'm-the-greatest-thing-since-sliced-bread social mask that I put on for the public.

I wish the mirror would lie.

I wish to be out of the rut I'm currently spinning my wheels in.

How are you by the way?

I would also like to throw my hat into the "Xerxys' death" ring. And by hat I mean explosive device. And by ring, I mean room. So:

I would also like to throw my explosive device into the Xerxys' Death Room (of death) Those libs were truly mad.

ametc · 06-17-2009, 08:20 PM

Oh so much needs to change about me.

I need to be independent, more social, more exciting, skinny, not depressed/crazy, etc etc.

But right now? Me? Who I am?

Nothing.

I am who I am. I don't need to fit my square peg into a round hole. I'm healthy, happy, try to be a good person within my abilty. I'm good.

Xerxys · 06-18-2009, 05:16 PM

Halanna, immortality is overrated ... look at me, you'd think I was James Bond with the chicks by now but meh ...
