"But seriously, 2007 kinda rocked out. ::YEAH:: I guess I'm also a little partial to 2007 just because of the mere fact that 2008 started out kinda lousy... I mean, I'm not one to get too deep into anything but let's just say, 2008 is going to bring quite the change."
And so it did.
It's unbelievable to actually look back on a year. Especially since the way I look at a calender is left to right. So to go from December 31st to Januray 1st in one full swoop of a split second between 11.59.59 and 12.00.00 is just crazy to me. Especially since it takes a full 365 days to go through one entire year. And all of the things you can fit into it. It's amazing. Time. It's CRAZY.
Anywhos, I know I'm supposed to finish my resolutions. My legit resolutions. Not my half-ass generalized these-are-the-ones-everyone-says-they-are-going-to-do-and-never-actually-"get-around-to-it" resolutions. And I found inspirations for them in all the happenings of 2008. So maybe you guys can figure out which events they go to.
SuperGrape's Continuations of 2009 Resolutions
8. Stop worrying. I know what I'm capable of and I can appreciate what I do. Worrying does not help. It also makes me break out into a nervous sweat which is not attractive even in the least bit.
9. Tell the people I love that I love them. Life is too short. Bad things can happen to really good people who don't deserve it and before you know it, the people you really care about can disappear forever. I witnessed this firsthand while not to myself. It was heart-breaking. It's been a year and I'm sure I'm not the only who still misses her.
10. Try new things. Like really try new things. Not just new foods or clothes or whatever. New experiences. Taking a walk in the woods by myself. Purposely getting lost. Taking up competitive badminton. Whatever it is, I'm going to do it.
11. Say thank you more. People don't get thanked enough. They really don't. It's sad. I'm going to be gratifying!
12. Think more. Ok, this sounds really general but it's not. I mean think about life. Appreciate things. My car that doesn't run the way I wish it would. My friends who have stood by me no matter what kind of hell I've unintentionally put them through. My dog who can be a real pain in the butt sometimes. My brother who... well... can really be a little brother Just appreciate things I didn't really take the time to appreciate enough before. Also think more in the sense that maybe if I think enough to pay more attention to surroundings, I'll stop walking into things.
So 12 is good, right? Maybe I should write them all down on my hand in Sharpie or something. Or at least keep them on my person at all times. I will forget sometimes. But no one's perfect. I know I'm certainly not And that's a good thing! Do you know how boring it would I be if I were perfect?
*shudder* I won't think about it.
So New Year came and went. *celebration* Dave came over and rang in 2009 with us and then we had brunch with the family today. It twas very nice.
And... OLIVER IS NEXT WEEKEND. I am so excited. AND NERVOUS. Wait. I'm not allowed to nervous. Ok , not nervous. Anxious. There's a happy medium.
Dog Problems is an awesome song.
Ok I think I'm going to end here, because it's already taken me about 3 hours to write this post and you can thank my severe Attention Deficit Disorder for that
Arr...,
Me*
