Sorry it's a few days late but better late than never I guess.  I have already made my journal about 2014 and now here's one with my resolutions for 2015 and I"m gonna do it in the same format I did last year:

~Things I plan to do in my personal life~

  • Land myself a nice decent-paying job with an excellent boss and co-workers.  Even if it's not art-related, anything that helps me out will do.  If not a new job, maybe get some sort of upgrade at the current job I'm working on...
  • Save up and buy a car.  I am still without a car of my own but I am saving up.  I put $50ish in the bank every weekend I am able to and hopefully I can save up enough money to pitch in with my parents to buy a used car so I am able to get to places like conventions or a job.
  • Spend more time with family.  I said this last year but I have a new brother now and I want to be able to visit my sister and her husband plus they are having a baby boy in a month and I want to be able to hang out with him plenty too.  Our family is apart a lot now cuz my bro and sis have both moved out and I will hopefully find a place to live in by myself someday so I want to be able to make the most of the time I have left with them...
  • Develop better sleeping habits.  I've actually improved over the past few months but I do tend to stay up too late or sleep in too late and I need to fix that or I could have health issues down the road.  Also somewhat related: get exercise when I can and keep myself healthy.
  • Clean and reorganize my room.  I just bought a new 5-part shelf that I have used to put in some of my Legos on display and now I feel I really need to clean my room where I have all my art supplies and 'working desk' and stuff.  It's gonna be tough but I have done it before so I can do it again!
  • Collect the rest of the MLP Funko figures (an numerous other toys) if my budget permits it...
  • Try to figure out if I shoud be dating or not.  It's not on my top priority list but I have kinda wondered lately if I should have a girlfriend or not.  I'll make a journal about it sometime explaining more.

~Things I plan to do in my art~

  • Utilize Adobe Illustrator more for my art.  Thankfully I've been doing this a lot lately and I want to see if I can master that program more to create higher-quality art and build up a good portfolio to use for interviews someday.
  • Start using Photoshop a lot more and get a better pen and tablet that can help me with this.
  • Get to contribute some art to "My Little Sweetheart" or some other collaborative pony fanart project.
  • Get better at drawing the human body.  I luckily have in the past year, but I know I can do better and I strive to!
  • Learn how to do some simple animations in Adobe Flash.  I guess the better thing to say is "find some time to start dabbling in Flash and not let other stuff get in the way!" 
  • Make more sculptures and improve with it and become as good as someone like VIIStar or something.
  • Draw more butts!  :D

~Things I plan to do in the brony fandom~

  • Get accepted at a con to sell some art and make some dough.
  • Attend said cons and be able to hang out and connect with my friends and hopefully be able to see some friends I haven't met IRL yet like :icondestinydecade:, :iconautoknight01:, :iconintheallspark: and so on...
  • Purchase a better mic to do voice acting with.
  • Using a mic and some good editing software, start doing some 'analysis' type videos using my ponysona vectors.
  • Work more on "Age of the Alicorns: Chaos Rising" and above all: START THE ASK ACCORD TUMBLR BLOG!!!!!

Well guys I guess those are my resolutions.  I may not accomplish them all but I hope to at least do most of them and I am guessing 2015 will be awesome regardless!  :D
