Resolutions:
1. Eat better/exercise more.
2. Spend more time with my family.
3. Apply myself better to school (stop falling asleep, heh).
4. Get over my shyness and stuff like that.
5. In the summer, get a job (if I can at 14 - if not, I guess I'll have to start up my own little 'business"). I love money. ^_^

Predictions:
1. The Pope will pass away in the first quarter of the year.
2. There will be another attack on U.S. soil (near the end of the year), yet it will be smaller than 9-11. It will most likely be in California, New York, Florida, or D.C.
3. With the war becoming bigger, a new surge of American pride will come out. The punk trend will fade out, and country will be the "new punk".
4. After having a big single in the beginning of the year, Britney Spears will fade out once again.
5. Super Bowl: Eagles vs. Chiefs.
6. Elvis Costello, Melissa Ethridge, Mary J. Blige, Norah Jones, Coldplay, Maroon 5, Weezer, Fiona Apple, Ben Folds, and Eminem will have a big year this year, as well as many country acts.
7. The Dixie Chicks/Toby Keith "rivalry" will escalate.
8. At the '04 VMAs, there will be a parody of the opening performance of the '03 VMAs (the infamous Madonna-Britney-Christina thing).
9. Major record labels' sales will go down slightly, and P2P will be blamed again. However, the cause of the falling sales is a surge in indie music.
10. Surpising fans everywhere, Weird Al releases a new album at the end of 2004, with parodies of 50 Cent and/or Snoop Dogg, Beyonce, Simple Plan, Coldplay, and The Clash.


:P Got my creative mind thinking and guessing. :D

Top 20 Stupid Predictions for 2004

1  There will be a brand new color discovered that no one has ever seen before.  Jesse Jackson will try to patent it for his coalition.  

2  Someone will actually succeed in getting a computer to divide by zero.  Someone will write a virus with this algorithm and all affected computers which will be about 85% of all in the world will stop and do absolutely nothing(zero).  Internet access speeds for the lucky 15% unaffected by it will be phenomonal.  

3   911 phone service will be disconnected because someone will forget to pay the phone bill.  By the time it gets paid and reconnected some phone sex company will have leased the number and people everywhere will forget about their emergencies as they engage in risque conversation.  Emergency rooms everywhere will be nearly empty while morticians will experience a boom in business.

4   Someone will clone a mime - It'll be all over except for the screaming.  

5   The world food crisis will appear to have been solved when someone will invent powered water.  Joy will turn to dismay when no one including the inventor will know what to add.

6   A rash of tornados will rip through Afghanistan and cause $250 million in improvements.

7   Al Gore will be the first person to ever get a rectum transplant.  Complications will cause the rectum to reject him.

8  Iraq's Tariq Aziz will be typecast for a new movie about the 1960's TV show Bewitched.  Aziz will play Darren's boss, Larry Tate.

9   In an effort to once again be first at something in the space race the Russians will send a cosmonaut to the sun.  When they are asked by the news media how this will be possible they will proclaim that they will simply send the space craft there at night.

10 The flying cars that were promised by 2000 in the 1960s will still not become a reality.  This will cause George Jetson and his family to be born at some later date in the future.  

11 A new type of music will develop - rap lyrics vocalized to country music.  New music style will be called 'Crap'.

12 Wall street will be renamed to Fall street as the stock market continues to slide downhill.  

13 Efforts will be made to measure time on a metric scale with 100 seconds in a minute and 100 minutes in an hour.   It will be field tested in three western states and several Canadian provinces where the local economies will soon collapse as people will be working 800 minutes a day as oppossed to 480 minutes a day as they did on standard time.  People will work almost twice as long for the same pay.  They will stop spending money and sleep while they should be shopping.  This trend will reverse itself when someone will realize that they forgot to shorten the interval of a second by almost 50%.  

14 Bill Clinton will try marajuana again this year, but this time he won't exhale.

15 Winona Rider will go on trial again for taking the stand in her last trial.  If you recall she just took the stand, she did not testify.  

16 The Talaban will host a beauty contest.  No one will win.  

17 In an effort to keep authorities off his tail, Osama Bin Laden will undergo a sex change operation.  He will travel around with a circus and be billed as the bearded lady. And we thought he was a b*tch before.  

18 Michael Jackson will get a nose transplant causing his face to collapse.  His old nose will go on display at Pop Music's hall of fame.

19 IBM and Microsoft will enter into a joint venture to make an interface for artificial intelligence from machine to the human mind.  It will be advertised 'Artificial intelligence for those that have none of their own'.

20 Transporter technology will become a reality.  Although early tests will work somewhat they will be enough to call the program a success.  The first of these tests will be performed on a monkey.  The monkey will rematerialize as Barbara Streisand.  One giant step backward for monkeykind.

1) To stop getting "drunk". I guess "tipsiness" is ok, but no more than that.

2) To go to rap/hip-hop clubs less often (no matter how much one of my friends begs me to go with her).  :P

3) To have better eating habits

4) To cut out gluttony in my vocabulary (even though I somehow manage to still fit into a single dress size this is still wrecking my health).

5) To exercise more.

6) To organize my life including my housekeeping skills.  :P

7) To learn to relax.


Predictions: 1) That I won't keep my resolutions, especially #4

2) That Demi Moore and Ashton Klutcher will break up  :P

3) Another SARS outbreak (except it won't last as long)

4) Josh Hartnett will get engaged

5) Jennifer Lopez will become engaged, again  :P

6) Alberta will talk about separating from Canada

7) W. Bush will make a fool of himself yet again.

8) Prince Charles and Camilla engaged.

Hey now.  Baldwin has repeatedly denied saying any such thing.  A little research tells me that the only verifiable thing that was said is Kim Basinger saying that her husband said he would leave the country, and a whole bunch of angry denials from Alec himself.  This may be one of the reasons they aren't a couple anymore.  Apparently Streisand has said no such thing either.

Celebrities who said they'd leave the country:
Eddie Vedder, lead singer of Pearl Jam
Robert Altman, famous director of "MASH," "Nashville," and other movies I've never seen
Pierre Salinger, who actually did leave the country
