♥ so this is the new year...
And for once, I do feel kind of different. I was looking forward to last night all along, though I'm not entirely sure what I was expecting. Of course, by all rights, it should have been--it's all people I like and people they like. And you know what? It was fun. For the first time in a long time, I just kind of didn't worry. I didn't worry about curfew or having to drive home or missing the one I've been thinking of. For the first time in a long time, everything was just about perfect. And for the first time ever, I thought New Year's was kind of a cool holiday. [This is exaggerated by the fact that I don't have to work today.]
In keeping with my new spirit of excited New Year'siness, I made some resolutions this year. I find it's easiest for morale to make only a few resolutions, that way you don't feel as bad when you break most of them, because "most of them" is only two or three. I also prefer to have a couple of "continuous" resolutions in there, because it makes me feel a little better if they're not all bad habits to break. I can encourage myself by reminding myself of all the nice things about me! It also helps to use resolutions that anyone can benefit from, such as "drink more water." Anyone can drink more water, because it's free! Also, it helps to rid us of all those pesky antioxidants. Anyway. Here goes:
1. Keep not smoking.
2. Make a new friend.
3. Ace European History final.
4. Quit my stupid job.
5. Haha, just kidding, Branden. Don't get your hopes up, buddy.
6. Finish that list. I guess it doesn't all have to get done this year. Make some serious progress on that list. [You can go ahead and get your hopes up for that one.]
