And trust me, 3000 words a day has been no easy feat. In fact, I've failed more often than not, but when you aim for the stars and hit the moon in the process -- well now, that's something. @Deborah: agreed @Junior: Resolve vs. Resolute. Damn you and the semantic horse your rode in on! (But after a quick look at Dictionary.com, I acquiesce to your pedantry. A resolution is a essentially lip service, while resolve is the will to bring it forth. I suppose then, that I resolve to do the things listed here, for I incorrectly used the words "my resolution" where I should have been saying "I resolve to". @Suzanne: thanks for the heads up. Checking it out. @Quantum: You too! And trust me, 3000 words a day has been no easy feat.

After quite possibly the most life changing semester of my life, the new year brought with me many things i have resolved to do or change. I wish you all the best.

Resolutions are plans for goals to make us better; nothing good was ever accomplished in a single day! I found your blog via BlogRush today! Hope to see you around!

During my Master's I was lucky to write 1500 a day. Then again, the technical content is said to be the main reason why it takes so long. Having said that, happy new year! 3000 words a day is a lot of writing. During my Master’s I was lucky to write 1500 a day.
