Sofa Boys 2009 Pledges
As a diagnosed "Sofa Boy" moving into 2009, I hereby pledge to:
- NOT automatically hit "yes" when the load screens says "continue?"
- Up my Vitamin D intake with Sunlight - rather than Milk Duds.
- Take my outdoor activities to the "Next Level".
- Actually mean it when I tell my mom: "5 more minutes.."
- Reprioritize: Homework THEN Videogames. Not the other way around.
- Eat something healthy while gaming - like a banana or yogurt.
- Make sure my friends and family members get to play too!
- Play at least a few games that teach me something worthwhile.
- Keep my room and play areas neat and tidy - no matter how difficult!
- Read at least one book per month this year.
