<----- NEW YEAR'S PLACEHOLDER--->


Right now my computer is falling apart around me (Major graphics problems requiring full reinstall... booooo) and I have spent the past 4 hours talking to a "chick" that I am am really into... So things aren't all bad... LIKE YOU CARE! YOU JUST WANT TO READ MY YEAR IN REVIEW DON'T YOU! FINE! IS THAT ALL I AM TO YOU! hehe... here goes!

theme song "Warning Sign" by COLDPLAY (Track 08 on A RUSH OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD)

YEAR IN REVIEW! here are my resolutions from December 2002.

1. Lose weight, eat better, and get in shape. - I did eat better for most of the year. In the beginning of November I got a membership at BALLY'S and put myself on a fairly strict diet (That has gone to hell over vacation). How did I stick with it? Routine. My job (albeit shitty at times) does lend itself well to a routine. I thinned up alot (IMHO) and am looking forward to next year.

2. Stop drinking/Stop being depressed - I didn't drink ANYTHING ALL YEAR. Until my birthday that is... that was a fun night and I had a driver. As far as the depression thing goes... Well I moved out and have felt much better since. Still lonely though.

3. Get in a better financial state/ Buy a suit - I sucked it up and went back to TAG (for now)... that put me in a much better financial state.

4. Write, Write, Write - Well... My writing lapsed a bit this year... Probably because there wasn't much to say. I did do ALOT of thinking though.

5. Plant a tree - What did I do for humanity this year? Hrmmm... I kept my website open and I have been told people read it. So if it helped ONE person I guess I am doing something!

6. Get on the career track - Well... this year wasn't so much about what I want to do with my life... It is was I DON'T want to do. I realized I am not suited for the pressures of being a EMT...




*DRUMROLL*....and now to this year's resolutions...

1. Clear up my life: I have removed many of the "Distractions" from my life (If that is you than I am sorry)... I buried what was left of the skeletons in my closet. I picked up the pieces of my heart off the ground (or as many as I could find) and got my head together.

2. Find the path: You know I actually considered my job as a career option? Well... after the "Fuck you and a smile" that we got for a Xmas bonus... Hellz no! I am going to figure out some way to get out of my job and into some more money. Whether that includes going back to school for SOMETHING or winning the lotto... Something's gotta give. This year I have to figure out what the hell I am going to do with my life.

3. Plant more trees: Continue to do my service to the benefit of humanity! I plan to keep my site open for all of 2004. With all of my writing... If that helps ONE person... Or makes ONE person smile and be happy for just a moment of their life... Then I am making a difference.

4. Be vulnerable again: I have to open myself up to the world. No more of this "Nothing can hurt me" crap.

5. Get fucking RIPPED: I need to pump me up! Continue on my routine/diet and get pecs and abs! Make the honies swoon (including ex's!) Get to the point of doing the "Look at yourself in the mirror" workout!

6. Write MORE and DO SOMETHING with it!: You give up all that academic potential to be an "Artist" and it just sits there! Sell damn you SELL! Sell out!

PLAN B LIST

1. Get my 15 minutes of fame!

2. Win the lotto!

3. Get hypnotised to think that I live ON the O.C.! (Summer, Anna, Marissa - gotta try em all - HOTTIEMONS!)

anyways... looking forward to the future for once... So welcome to:

Faith and the Elusive Deity...

SMOKE IN MY CLOTHES

I like going out with my friends to bars... I, being a non-smoker... Hate the thin film that you get all over you when you get home... And it gets in your clothes which you can wash... But my jacket has to be dry-cleaned :(

Ah well... my sister works at a dry-cleaning place w00t.

...

you are so porcelain
i am afraid to touch you
so beautiful
that i want none of my shadow to dim your light



basking in the red glow
the heat on my face
i watched the fields burn
and doused the flames with tears
i am walking away
from all of this dust and death
from all of this ash and hurt
from all of this rust and pain
within
and without
just follow my footsteps
and you won't get lost
even if i am

VACATION WOES

What the hell am I going to do with 10 days off? I gave up FFXI and that was my main plan over vacation...

I also need to find some plans for New Years.

CHRISTMAS WISHES

Merry Christmas, world...

Christmas seems so empty this year... My heart just isn't into it...

I know I will wake up tomorrow and get many great things from my family who loves me. Things I have asked for and will probably enjoy for a long time... It just isn't what I want...

My heart is with my niece, Ariel.

What I want is for her to be out of the hospital. I want her to be home and healthy. I want to be able to hold her and know that she is going to be okay... I would trade anything that I am going to get tomorrow for just that one thing.

It kills me to think that she is there alone hooked up to all of those machines... It also is a huge downer to be sick like this and not be able to go visit her.

She was born premature, so this past month or so has been a rollercoaster. One of the reasons I have lost myself in video games and such is just to make the time pass a little faster...

I want it to be January...

I love you Ariel!

COME ON ROTK!

I really want RETURN OF THE KING to beat TITANIC in ticket sales (Domestically) - dammit I was dragged to that movie by an ex of mine. Well... I did cackle and laugh in pure delight at the end.... but that is neither here nor there. :)

I did, however, get some sugar afterwards. w00t.

IT'S ALIVE, IT'S ALIVE!!! (MUUUAWWAHAHAHAHA)

Well... I feel slightly better. Or maybe that is the doped up feeling of NYQUIL talking.

I think I may downgrade myself from SARS to the flu... Hopefully by Xmas it will just be a cold. It just sucks because I cannot work out... And I have gotten used to eating something every 2-3 hours... I haven't had anything all day and I am STARVING.

I musn't fall off the wagon (although some things are just plain good for the soul)... I just don't picture myself working out until next Monday (when I am better) due to the holidays and all. That sucks.

One more day... one more day and I can rest for 2 weeks.
