Yeah... So, am once again being bad about the whole keeping up with my LJ friends thing. So, to make amends, I'm reading through the 100 most recent entries on my friends list. Started around Dec.30 and now I think I'm up to the first or second, and everyone is posting their new year's resolutions.
Now, see, I've never really seen the point to new years resolutions. I mean, if you wanted to change something in your life, why wait until the new year to do it? Why not just start right away? I'm not saying that New Year's resolutions are bad; quite the contrary, there a good thing (barring some freaky one like Commit Mass Homicide or something like that), and I have partaken with them in the past (and proceeded to give up on them about a month into the new year). I don't think I'm gonna post one this year, mostly since yeah, don't really have one. Instead, I'll just do what I do every year - make the most of what comes and hope it turns out for the best. :)
But, I will post some highlights of 2004:
* Finished my first year of college with a 3.5 semester GPA and a 3.3 cumulative GPA
* actually made more then $1000 at work (which was what it was in 2003... so very sad)
* Saw my brother get married in Hawaii in July and managed to get through the entire week over there without getting sunburned (minus a small patch on my shoulder and arm where I missed a spot when I smeared myself up with sunscreen every two hours)
* Watched my best friend get hitched a month later in Monetary, CA, to a guy who couldn't be better for her.
* Got glompped by the Emmies lostnyanko and Melody in October and got to spend an entire afternoon with them!
So, yeah, all in all, I think 2004 has treated me pretty well. There were a few hard times that still seem to be lingering, but I think the good outshined the bad. :)
