What can I say? Another year has ended, and a new one begins. 2004 had it's exhilirating moments, and yet some brought me to the depths of depravity. Let's recap. January: tried to start my life anew-recovering from surgery, only to realize that in February I would go back to living my old life. March was so blah and boring that I can't remember even the slightest thing that happened. April: made my second trip out to Georgia...realized that i actually could live in the South. May: The only thing that made me smile was knowing that school would end and that chapter in my life would be forever closed; no longer would I have to deal with mediocrity and superficiality on a daily basis, and just knowing that made me happy. June: Finally graduated from daycare...a.ka. high school! I remember when I was 7 I thought I would never make it to 12th grade. It seemed sooo far away. One of the only things I'll remember about graduation is that the speaker messed up reading my name out loud. Say it with me Ree-you-tov-ski. July: became a workaholic and a religious tanner..good times with both-except for the burns. August: moved out to Georgia! one of the best things that ever happened in my life. One word: Liberation. October: BIG 1-8! Just knowing that i was 18, changed my life. An official adult. Music to my ears. Came back to CA for 4 days which felt like a dream-in and out. November: the only thing memorable was my very interesting Thanksgiving-don't think I want to have one like that again. And of course, December: finished the semester strong, came home to experience both happiness and also an eagerness to return to my new life.
New Year's Resolutions
I am not one to hold to my new year's resolutions. Getting in shape or living a healthier lifestyle only hold out for about 2 weeks. So this year I've resolved for something new. These resolutions have been thought out in advance to make sure that I would go through with them. These resolutions are more difficult than changing physical aspects, because they require one to change one's own flawed character. New Year's Resolutions: to stop judging people even on a subconscious level, and to become genuinely kind and sincere to all. Sometimes, all that people want is to know that somebody cares about them, about the small details in their life. I want to make a conscious effort to follow these aesthetics in the new year.
