12/28/2003 Archived Entry: "It's that time of year again!"

It's new years resolution time! Let's do a check up on last year

Five things that 2002 taught me:

1. I'm never as good as I think I am and I'm never as bad as I think I am.
2. Exersize is a good thing.
3. Once you think you know everything there's always something that will make it seem like you know nothing.
4. Don't discriminate. That includes large drunk football fans. There are sweet openminded people in every class, generation, nationality, and orientation. That also means there are assholes in every class, generation, nationality, and orientation.
5. u_u; I have too much money and at the same time not enough.

Five personally significant events of 2002: in no particular order...
1. January 17th
2. Katsucon
3. Sophomore year in general
4. Lots of things in general but not really anything specific =/
5. Something? I can't think of anything at the moment

Five things I want to do in 2003:
1. Learn how to manage money better Actually success. My biggest money problem was one stupid mistake. but for the most part I got much better.
2. Give more Success. Ended up giving too much. but yup. Success!
3. Start to learn Mandarian and Arabic FAIL! Boo. But I'm starting up Arabic next fall.
4. Get better grades Also fail ^_^;; I wonder if I'm going to start taking a hint. I make this resolution every year and never manage to keep it.
5. Yasashiku naretara ii no ni (basically to be a little kinder in my heart) In my opinion another success. Too bad I went overboard.

Five things I don't want to do in 2003:
1. die Success!
2. intentionally hurt anyone Fail. But I did it for their own good.
3. be too greedy Fucking success.
4. give up the "no smart animals" thing Also success.
5. give up period. Just lose all my passion for things Success ^_^

Five people who I'd like to know better in 2003:
1. My grandmother as well as some of my heritage Success. Not quite the way I had thought at the time, but still a success.
2. My sisters. I really love them alot even though I don't think they love me back. Courtney especially. u_u Sort of successful. I've learned they love me back...well at least Lindsay does.
3. Steve. He really intrigues me...and then ignores me u_u; *the amazing invisable girl* FAIL! It sucks being the invisable girl to him and I don't care. =p If he doesn't like me then his loss.
4. soldier nabuca, wingboy02, youkoanddragon, insertotherSNhere. I'm not just adding this cause you added me. Success!
5. When you look inside, outside seems strangely familiar ^_^ Also successful! Very successful.

As for this year....
Five things that 2003 taught me:

1. Not all people are nice. Trust is a dangerous thing to do.
2. I have been fortunate. Things could always be far far worse.
3. I'm stronger than I thought I was. Sure, a little insecure, and inexperienced, but still willing to fight when things get tough.
4. Tea and hugs make anything feel better.
5. Himitsu.

Five personally significant events of 2003: in no particular order...
1. Sometime in March. I think it was March? and reconciling some friendships
2. Discovering the EPP list
3. Getting over an old relationship totally and completely
4. Trip to NY in August
5. Recent events

Five things I want to do in 2004:
1. Continue to learn...but start trying to put all that learning to use.
2. Start searching for a romantic relationship. I think I'm finally healthy enough to handle one. Not to mention it'd be kinda nice.
3. Learn to stand up for myself. Ironically enough I need to learn how to be selfish.
4. Get better grades. *laughs* I know. I'll probably fail it like all the other years but I might as well put it up there anyways.
5. Start learning Arabic again.

Five things I don't want to do in 2004:
1. die
2. do something I would regret
3. lose sight of myself and the people I care about
4. buy a Hummer
5. become really weak. And not the humble sort of weak...the bad sort of weak.

Five people who I'd like to know better in 2004:
1. myself.
2. my family.
3. my friends.
4. I used to think that no one else mattered...but I'm realizing random sucky people will slip into my world and destroy it if I'm not careful...so I want to learn more about the world for that.
5. there is no spoon?

1) Knowing something and knowing how to use it are two different things. I'm not sure if anyone can teach you "how to use it". Something that one has to figure out on their own.

2) Don't settle for anything less than what you want. Ditch anyone who makes you feel bad.

And there's my attempt at deep thoughts.
