They can be elusive, yanno. But you can do it! I also think you can do the video. Much more straightforward...;-) The thing is, do you have a PLAN for finding the soul mate?

It's just like what one of my professor once said after watching car commercials: "You know, I don't really need a car that accelerates past giant curves into valleys and mountains. All I want is a car that goes straight and can turn left and right when I want it to." @Na: Maybe I'll installed threaded comments when we have 10 different threads going on here... For now, it's still good as a brain exercise. About the announcer yelling "goal" thing... hm, I wonder if that can be a business... Cheerleaders for hire to cheer you on, and then announcer for hire to yell "gooooooaaaallll!!!!" @Melissa: Thanks! Happy new year to you as well. :-) @Vered: Thanks!

Ah, we both need to install threaded commenting :) I love your idea of arrows pointing to the manual. I put all my manuals in one place so I could remember where they were; now of course, I can't find them. :P LOL! I laughed so hard imagining an announcer yelling goal - my work space faces my backyard, so if I had one there'd be plenty of room for large gesturing and arm movements... and then getting bowled over by my dog! :D … Ah, we both need to install threaded commenting :)

You did well with the goals from last year and I am sure you will achieve your goals for 2009. I'll keep checking for that updated header image! As for the sewing machine, don't they make fancy computerized machines where you input a pattern and then sit back and let the machine do its magic? That is what I would need. <em>Derek's last blog post..<a href='http://dereksemmler.com/2009/01/05/speedlinking-december%e2%80%99s-most-vocal/' rel="nofollow">Speedlinking - December’s Most Vocal</a></em> Happy New Year Kelvin!

I should get a machine that has a huge arrow that points me to the manual. :-P I always think "yeah right" when I see people that have a list of 50 goals or resolutions. I am now considering... if I ever reach my goals, maybe I should hire a soccer/football announcer to go "GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!!!" in front of me. That’s convenient.

I bought a new machine earlier last year (OMG, 2008 is 'last year' already!) and luckily it has easy arrows to follow on the machine itself, so I never have to worry about finding the manual. It's quite good actually. Goals just aren't me. I don't do goals or new years resolution, since I usually end up just doing what I feel like at the time. This year though I want to try to get some goals in place and done, if only because I've got nothing better to do with my time :) Reaching a goal and realising it's not what I wanted? Oh, I do that all the time. Mainly with working on 'normal' jobs ;) Yeah threading is tricky.

I tried it on my friend's sewing machine and did alright (though there's definitely room for improvement). I find the hardest part to be figuring out where each thread goes and how to set it up. But then, it could become easier if I actually look into it some more. Goals... Goals are good to a degree. But sometimes, you don't ever get to the goal, but enjoyed (or hated) the journey anyhow. And sometimes you can also reach your goal and finally realize that it's not what you wanted. Hehe, you never know. ;-) The pressure thing is alright.
