new year.

I cannot believe my winter break is almost over. I can't so much say that I have done anything too particularly useful over the past month, but I can say that I have enjoyed every little bit of the nothingness.

I am however, in some fashion, ready for the new semester to begin. Mainly so that I can pass the time quicker, without out sitting on my butt, eating peppermint kisses, drinking shiner, and watching three complete seasons of Weeds, because that my friends, is what I have done the past month.

Also, because I am just really ready to embark on a new year, try new things, meet new people. I know there are some parts, and some people, that encompassed me so much last year, over the past few years even; and I just have to let some of them go. This year, I'm going to try and let go of some of my insecurities. I want to learn it is okay for NEW things. I want to get in shape, like for real, in shape; my junior year of high school, i could run six miles without stopping...now, i'd give myself a big hooray if i could run six blocks! I want to try and not sweat the small things, they just aren't worth the stress. I also plan to convince myself that I am in fact a very good catch (in an un-arrogant manner); and that this good catch is so much better than she gives herself credit for. There's a perfect timing for everything...even meeting that person you want to spend your days with. Someone told me that I'm supposed to make this "list" of what I want in a guy, and stick to it; but to be very careful, because we just might get what we wish for. This is the beginning of my list:

-Someone with a personality just as weird as mine. This is needed for understanding humor and sarcasm, which I exert very often.

-Someone who has that killer, catch me from across the room, kinda smile. Not that hey, i'm a pervert, come on over smile...bad thing to confuse the two.

-Someone who is very family oriented. I am absolutely close to my family, Sunday dinners with the family are one of my favorite things. Although, I don't want his family closeness to be so strong that it crosses out my family time, that could be a problem.

-Someone who is okay with just staying in sometimes. Its okay to just stay in, snuggle up, and watch movies all night. We don't have to do something fancy every night.

-Someone that loves God. The power of faith is an amazing thing. I have to have someone who can share that trust and faith in God with me.

-Someone who has a strong passion for music. Music is a huge part of my life, concerts, and traveling must be something that he loves...or at least is willing to tolerate with me.

....to be continued.



Thats all for now.
