"She's in love, and the world gets blurry
She makes mistakes, and she's in no hurry to grow up
'Cause grownups, they don't understand her
Well it's a big, big world out there, but she's not scared...
She finds hope in the strangest places
She reads her books, and she knows the faces
Of everyone that ever said she's alone
She knows every word to the saddest songs
And she sings along, though her friends all tell her
That she can't sing...
She's eighteen, much too young
To know what a kiss like that would mean
But her lips, they were no stranger to the touch
And she likes it way too much."

What I Aim To Do

In the next two days, I intend to come up with my New Year's resolutions. Unlike so many of the empty promise-makers out there, I actually stick to mine, and I remember them often throughout a year.

Last year's [though unposted] included being nicer to the Italian, practicing patience when dealing with idiots, and focusing on my own happiness when I would have otherwise forgotten it.

I'm happy to announce that I was successful on all three. Though minimally, I considered myself to be nicer to Scarface overall [it's just so hard!]. I tried my best to be patient with the morons who attend my school. I also learned more and more about happiness, and have come to realize exactly what kind of life I intend to lead in order to be happy.

For 2008, I'm going to come up with eight new resolutions. Some more specific, some strangely vague. But no matter the level of detail, you can bet I'll stick to them.

Will I promise to get into shape? Of course I will. I'm a bit pro-health. Will I swear to "fall in love"? Lol. Yeah. Lemme see how that turns out...

For now, however, I will not bore you with the details. Expect more from me in a few days, when I've had more time to think them over and word them correctly.

Until then, keep it real. Abbs is out.
