And into the last minutes of the first day of a brand new year I thus write. By far, the year has been fulfilling, short-lived as it is yet. I have accomplished things I would never be able to accomplish in a million years. Nothing short of a miracle, really.
It has been a while since words have I writ. Long enough to find me in the state of confusion I am in. Such confusion that I know not what words to use or in what order to put them. I shall take my time writing my first entry of the year, lest it should sound nothing more than gibberish from a hunger-deranged beggar. Nonetheless, I shall keep my thoughts and words flowing for tonight.
Prior to this, I had been in a desperate attempt to get into “vanity fair” mode, but as my camera is in such a disagreeable mood, I then decided to write. Other than the busy idleness I experience right now by writing, my day has been full of such rewarding activities, that my strength is totally drained, but completely otherwise with my spirit. I consider this promising day as an omen for the next 364 days.
2005 had been a very boring year (with the exception of a friend’s tragedy), but 2006 was an exciting year in a scary sort of way. So frightening were some of the events that I cannot help but contemplate over and over again about pain and suffering. There were good—no, GREAT—things that happened, too, and somehow, without the misfortunes, those great things would never have been as great. So to everyone who had been part of my crazy 2006, Thank You. I could never be grateful enough for the moments we shared.
2007. To best describe it would be the complete writer’s block I am experiencing right now, as it has barely even begun yet. But my expectations for this year are great, so much so that I could even feel good things coming true right this very instant. We all have this instinct that tells us just how things are going to be, and my instinct strongly tells me that 2007 is MY YEAR. So expect as much as I do that my entries for this year would be full of amazing adventures that should spell success and living fully.
New Year’s Resolutions. I have long grown tired of those things, but I just cant seem to stop making them, nevertheless. So I have summarized all of the things I want to happen this year in one simple objective: To exude the essence of wisdom, thrift, patience, order and beauty for as long as there is life within me (*crosses fingers*). Pretty general, but it is better than noting.
Five minutes to a new day and drooping eyes. Things that tell me that the time has come to end this day as well as this entry.
Good night.
