New Year's came and went. I honestly don't understand why people make it such a big deal. I get the whole wanting to change yourself and look forward to a new year as a new beginning, but at the same time...I don't know. It's a weird holiday. I guess I like the concept of starting over refreshed better thn I like the actual rituals that go along with New Years.
I went to Erin's and stayed up till 6:30 in the morning. Not bad. Watched movies. Endless talking. Pretty normal evening in my opinion. Great fun, though.
My resolution is to be happy. To look back this time last year and be able to smile and be satisfied with where I am and what I'm doing. I'm fine with 2007, but at the same time...I feel like shouting, "Is that the best you got? Come on!" There must be more, and I will find it. I must say, however, even though 07 wasn't that great, some powerful lessons have been learned. Some took me a while to figure out, others not so long. I've learned a lot about myself...some good, some bad. But in the end, looking back, I have no regrets. I can't look back on this year as a complete failure, because it wasn't. Filled with highs and lows...many lows...it's perfect in it's imperfection, like most things you come to appreciate. The more I think about it, the more satisfied I am with 2007. It's over and done yet here I am, on the other side. Sounds good to me.
Life is what you make it, right?
Have you ever wanted to do something so ridiculous that you know there's an enormous chance you'd regret it but you want to do it anyway? Bwahahahahaha.
...nah don't have the backbone or the justification. =]
