Lent: When we try to do things we epically fail at

Ok, so this Lenten season I'll be 'giving up' lots of things that I know I shouldn't do anyway and have constant roca (roman-catholic) guilt over. For those who don't understand lent, it's basically like a new years resolution but if you break it, it's a sin so God will be pissed and then you'll have to go to confession where a priest will make you repent. I'll bullet list it to make it short.

Things that are being given up:
*Alcohol: All forms with the exception of wine (if I can drink it in church, I can drink it in real life)
*Men: I get a muligan, which can be applied to a person or action. Example: I start dating someone (gasp) or make out with a rando at a bar. I get one of either, not both.
*Snacks between 12am-8am: Obvious police on this one
*Video games: With the exception of n64

Things to do:
*Gym: 4 times a week at least
*Typing class notes: 1 week to complete 1 week
*Buying tickets for things on time: Concerts, planes, hotel reservations, trains...
* Going to DC

I mean it's only 40 days, I think I can suck it up for 40 days,  if not then I'll just be in church a lot.
