New years resolutions

January 4, 2012 · by Aleksander Aas

2012 arrived and the end of time is upon us. Some of us are not into Mayan beliefs though. We did a quick walk down the hallways at Opera and want to share some of our new years resolutions with you all!

Aleksander Aas

I actually even have some digital resolutions this year. Less late Saturday night tweets and be more active on my blog! I also have a few goals when it comes to working out this year. I started last year and summer body 2012 is definitely a major goal. Can't let Espen be the only ripped person on Choose Opera!

Michelle Behan

Michelle is the super organizer in the marketing department. Despite that fact - or maybe because she is so organized - Michelle's resolution for the new year is to do less, but with more focus. She believes that being selective makes you effective! (And who can argue with a resolution that rhymes?)

Daniel Karlberg

Doesn't believe in new years resolutions so we made one for him. Before next new years Daniel is going to find a new years resolutions for 2013. If the world doesn't end that is..

Roman Feldgendler and Pèi-Yuan Hsu

Roman has more of a goal than a resolution this year. He wants to pass his Norwegian exam making it easier for him to stay permanently in Norway.

Pei on the other hand waits for the Chinese new year before coming up with any wishes for improvement.

Now that we shared ours, how about sharing your resolutions with us in the comments?

Not a resolution but a goal - learn the basics of HTML, CSS and JavaScript and start developing small Opera extensions.

Look of the day with the sun's glow warms our faces içimizi.
The first mention of a pleasure is within us a sweet günaydınla temperature.
S that tune forever kiss. Songs of hope starved rotary mill. Coştukça loves forever, destroyed the sacred taboos of praise.
Lonely wanderer travels between the cold walls, prays the supreme humane life.

Making all new years resolutions does not have any sense. After 2 or 3 weeks almost everybody forget it...
