One more hour before the new year! It's crunch time, I have to eat all the klondyke bars I can before the resolutions kick in!
This year is going to be different. This is a start of a somewhat new life. I can feel it.
2008 and the years prior weren't really anything for me, I just continued the year as if the time were just going and going. But I feel something different. First off, my attitude toward things are much better. I feel really confident and enthusiastic about my resolutions. And also I'm a lot more content with things now.
Having some alone time downloading music has taught me a last minute lesson which I think is a good thing to bring on over to the new year.
I learned that I enjoy living in the present much more. Sure anyone can easily say that they are enjoying the present, but do they really? A lot of us are living in the future, hoping and planning for things to happen in the future and they end up not enjoying what is going on for them right now.
Me, I was living in the past and the future. I was still hung up on the life I left behind three years ago ( I know, sounds pathetic) and I am putting too much effort into my future by only working and trying to save money to leave this place, But in the process, it made things suck. I had my fun, but I felt like I rushed everything just to make time pass for me. I guess what I am trying to say is that I made things suck for my self in maintaining the mindset that "I'll be out of here soon".
I am going to enjoy the moment more. I am going to say and think " I'm bored" less because there really are better things I could be doing.
Aside from that, all the other resolutions apply, diet, save more money, eat out less, be more productive blah blah blah.
I probably sound dumb, but it's somewhat a break through for me that I found a personal remedy to why I feel a little bitter about certain things when I shouldn't.
Well, happy new years everyone!
