what a new year

First post of 2009.

Happy New Year dudes and babes! Woohooo! Celebrating with a bang? 

Haven't done much but spent it like a regular night. Actually, come to think of it, my New Years haven't been very exciting. Perhaps I'm just not an exciting person. Not that kind of exciting anyway. 

Now I've had to retype the previous sentence three times cos my vision's a little blurred from the amount of red wine I've had. Yes, red wine. I'm getting weak. 

Anyhow, I wish everyone a more than bearable New Year in 2009. What are your new year resolutions??? Here are mine: 

1. To continue being the super anal, bloody perfectionist that I am (except I need to remember where I chuck my miscellaneous stuff like keys, wallet, and whatnot). 

2. To be more disciplined about my running routine - I need to really run those races I missed in 2008. 

3. To somehow start dancing again, whether it be teaching or competing. 

4. To be way more meticulous about my work, and not make stupid mistakes. Seriously stupid and careless mistakes. 

5. To read twice as many books as I had in 2008 - so at least 48 books for the whole of 2009 at the very least. 

6. To finish reading Ulysses, The Scarlet Letter, The Good Earth...and all those other pretentiously classic books that I actually like. 

7. To be more sociable and go to all these parties I've generally been invited to. 

8. To not put all my eggs in one miserable little basket. 

9. To write something that I can be proud of. 

10. To be more tolerant (of whatever that's reasonably worthy of my tolerance). 

11. To maintain my clothing size (I'm a gal who's in her late twenties after all). 

12. To spend more quality time with my family and friends for life. 

13. To finally get those pictures done with PROUD (if you're reading this, you know what I mean). 

14. To keep my hair all the way down past my butt (yes that's my style).

15. To go back to Vancouver to see all my dudes and dudettes. 

16. To save some money so I can eventually afford my own apartment. 

17. To travel and be carefree for a change. 

18. To continue keeping a journal so I can keep track of my development as a person. 

19. To be more patient with people in general.

20. To be unbearably emotionally independent. 

21. To curb my bdd, and ocd - somehow. 

22. To make more effort in keeping in touch.

23. To play more (and better) golf. 

24. To pick up some form of meditation. 

25. To be happy at least 90% of the time. 

Now only 20% of the bottle left and yet still typing with no spelling mistake. Am I good or what? Ha! 

Have a good new year people! Can't believe I'm flying in nine hours.
