New's Years and New Times
well, happy new years to everyone. just a little about this entry, some good and sad stuff, first of all this might be my last entry for quite a while, b/c i'm leaving early monday morning and when i'm in demopolis, no internet b/c i'll only be there for a week, and then i'll be in birmingham for 4 weeks and who knows if i'll have internet access. But feel free to call me whenever. Secondly i'll describe a little about my news year eve, then about my supposed resolutions, and finally a little thanks to some people.
yesterday i hung out with sabrina during the day, had to run some errands and sadly they again did not have my 40 gig ipod, so i'll have to wait until i get to birmingham to get it. then me and her just came back, watched some tv and talked about the past. I'm glad we have become close again and that no bad feelings at all exist anymore, i missed that friendship. At night I treated my parents to a steak at the texas roadhouse, since i won't be here for my dad's birthday, came home, no one was doing anything and then omi called to invite me to a friend's party, i said sure and was bored at that moment, so i met her at a friend amanda's house. we stayed there until past the actual new year's ring in, and popped fireworks, (note to self: don't be near omi when she is lighting fireworks, lol). We then headed to the first party, which had people quite "happy" and a drunk mom dancing, interesting to say the least, we didn't last there long. Second party had a group of gay guys, but they were nice and not you know "too nice" just nice people, but there was some drugs there, which wasn't weird but i haven't seen that in a while, lol. last party was a friend of their's that i was warned were very gothic and scary, but it wasn't too bad, i've seen and met worse. Plus the girl (i think amy) was really sweet and nice, she was very loving to her boyfriend, telling us of all the talent he has and all this stuff, so it was overall good. To omi: i did have fun, even if you think i didn't, i really didn't want to get home at 4:30 in the am, but still i got out of the house, which is what i wanted and i did have some good laughs and some interesting conversation, so thank you.
Resolution type, yeah it's going to be more than one, and not all will be fulfilled, but hopefully at least, ummmmmm.......... one?
1. my every year resolution of gaining a six pack, lol
2. develop more muscle in my upper body (arms/chest/shoulders)
3. be able to run a 10 K
4. don't lose touch with friends and family
5. figure out what are the most important things in my life (this is just because well a lot of people lose that when they go away and get money and start a "real" job)
6. try to get a job closer to home, at least in texas (no real control over this, but who knows)
7. go to as many concerts as possible
8. gain knowledge of 10 new cd's that i completely enjoy from start to finish
9. stop thinking so much, lol it bothers me
10. read at least 15-20 "classic" books
ok that's too many, but with all of those, i'll at least accomplish a few and say i did accomplish something this year, clever huh.
Now my shoutouts, in no particular order:
Eric - for being my getaway from demopolis, allowing me to watch movies for free, being like a brother to me and taking me away from being serious
Sandra - for everything, i don't even need to say anything and neither do you, basically thank you for being yourself and allowing me to be myself with you; oh and of course for all the lovely music that you share with me, one of the few people that knows or listens to more music than myself
Delia - for being the funny you that you are, for understanding the missing of home and friends and for our long conversations over the phone, and for being a "cool" friend
Amber - my grasshopper, for trusting me with everythign that you do, and for proposing to me, lol, for becoming closer to you this year, for being wacky you, please be careful with the boys though, i worry
Rob - for in a strange way being thoughtful, you are one of the strangest people i know but hey i understand your humor
Terri - for keeping your morals always, for offering conversation when i'm bored at work and for late night talks when we are both home
Omi - for always being able to make me laugh, for cheering me up when i was lonely or missing home, for becoming the closest i think that we have ever been, for all the phone calls and IM's, things might not work out because of the distance but always know you will be one of my forever friends, and it's ok if your parents are crazy, i think part of it rubbed off on you (in a good way though)
Sabrina - someone so close to me that i lost long ago, i worry that you were ok, but knew you would always make it out fine b/c you always do, one of the strongest people that i know, thank you for coming back into my life and making it so that nothing is weird between us, in you i have gained another friendship that i can count on, everything else doesn't even need to be said
My family - they have always supported me, no matter what i do and where i am, they always trusted i would make the right choices and don't question me too much, for that faith and trust i can never say how much they have done for me.
Ok people that's it, maybe if i have time tomorrow, i'll write my last one and if not, well you know where you can reach me, please everyone take care, much love to you all, and thank all of you for making the past year an interesting, exciting and life changing one.
Today's Assignment: think over the past year, that's it
Today's Lyrics:
So this is the new year.
And i don't feel any different.
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance (in the distance).
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
For selfl assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then i could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that can hold us back.
