-or- titles that just plain suck
Another year, another chance to change.
I guess.
New Year has never been a holiday that had much meaning to me. I understand the symbolism of a beginning anew, I suppose it is just the timing that makes it sort of a snore. January 1st doesn't have any real significance in my life. Yes, I have to start writing 2006 instead of 2005, but that is really about it. Oh, and the time I go to church changes.
However, seeing that I am STILL a student, the end of one school year and the beginning of another are much more pivotal, life affecting moments. Perhaps when I actually have a normal life, am no longer in school and concerned with the change between school years, then New Year might have more meaning to me.
When I was much younger, it was an exciting holiday because it meant I got to stay up late. These days, getting to bed before midnight is exciting, not after. I do, though, make resolutions. I do terrible at actually remembering them and working on them with regularity. Perhaps I should not make resolutions this year. That way, anything I do will be more than I expected, not less. Sounds like a slacktastic way to go to me.
Just like this piece of crap counts as my first blog of the new year. Whoopee.
