Taking the time to write a real entry is for people who don't get bitched at by IRL friends for posting. It's a blog, guys - get over yourselves.
Therefore, I'm gonna further waste time by filling out New Year's memes!
What are your plans for New Year's?: Go to Quantum of Solace with Nick and David, then off to Kai's place for his party. Fun stuff.
Will you be kissing anyone at midnight on New Year's?: No. I never do. (I did send an e-snog, though)
How many books are in the room you're currently in?: I'm so not counting them.
What was the last thing someone told you they were proud of you for?: No idea. People don't usually say that.
Do you think highly of yourself?: Not particularly.

Have you ever been called useless?: I hope not.
If someone who you didn't love spilled their heart to you what would you do?: Listen and tell them how I felt back. They deserve the truth, not a lie, at a time like that.

Honestly, are you happy right now, or just putting on a show?: I've been happier, but it's not bad.

Write some lyrics from the song you're currently listening to: 'So I smiled, and tried to mean it, and to make myself let go.'

Does the sight of blood make you squeamish?: Completely.
Do you think people take you seriously?: I'd like to think so, but I doubt it.
