New years resolution!

I have a few new years resolutions for 2011 that I'm hoping will work out. A few include break my nail biting habit, raise my grades in math and science and to exercise more often.
I've had a habit of biting my nails for a long time. I'm not really sure why I do it besides being bored, but it certainly isn't due to stress. Anyway, I figure that its a pretty unnecessary and some what gross habit to have so I'm just going to stop. Any time I catch myself I will stop and I will trying to wear nail polish to remind me when I subconsciously bite my nails.
My grades have been lagging a little bit due to lack of attention to detail in my science and math classes. The grade I have in algebra 2 is an A- which I hope to bring up to an A before the end of the semester. My grade in physical science is a B+ which I will at least raise to an A- before finals. Sometimes its just hard for me to understand certain aspects of the lesson or I don't do a thorough job in studying. I am going to involve my teachers and actively participate in class asking about things I don't understand. While I study I will eliminate all distractions and give the work 100% of my attention. Also I have some extra credit opportunities in both of those classes that I will use to my advantage to help raise my grades. My goal for the Second semester of my freshman year is a 4.0
Now I exercise regularly, but mainly due to the sports teams I participate in. My goal is to exercise everyday Even after basketball season to stay fit and ready myself for the summer soccer team I plan on joining. I have made a workout plan for my P.E. class and I plan on using that to increase my strength but mainly focusing on my cardio endurance and speed.



I've taped my goals next to the mirror in my room as a reminder to stay on track throughout the year. These goals are important to me and I hope to reach each of them.
