Dear Blog,

How long has it been since I felt the soft caress of cyberspace? Too long and now my heart is filled with dread that perhaps you have forgotten me. I have not forgotten you, sweet Blog. Though I write everyday in a manual notebook, I long to have my thoughts engraved in the deep folds of cyberspace for the world to read. If I could carry you in my purse, Blog, I certainly would.

Do people even use the term "cyberspace" anymore? There's a certain delicious tinge of retro that I, being a youngster, rarely have the priviledge of enjoying. I'm going to be 23 this year in March. It's not a milestone year, but I do want to throw a great big party to celebrate my early twenties while I'm still in it.

I always look forward to New Year though I don't usually keep my resolutions. I didn't have one this year because I can't say that there's any one particular thing that I want to focus on. I look at my life as an ongoing science/art project and my priorities change constantly depending on my mood, the demands of others, etc. etc. But I think resolutions are good and for some people, keeping a resolution can change their life forever! I guess for me, my resolution every year is to become a better person. Every year I try different techniques and experiment with different areas of my life. This year, I will be focusing mainly on health and order. These are two things that have been neglected for too long and somehow I will find the resources within myself to enforce some rules and regulation to my life - a life which til now has been devoted to rejecting and shitting on rules and regulations.

Maybe I'm finally growing up?

I shudder at the thought, but I'm tired of living my own lazy filth; breathing in the residue odour of my own apathy. Ryan will be happy to read this, but he will know not to interfere with my methods. Since I was an only child, I'm not used to sharing my thoughts with others and I generally do not require other people's unsolicited advice. People who know me well know to trust me to find my own way, even if it's not the way "most" people would approach things, I like to do things the way it works for me.

So 2006 ended quite nicely with the Python Christmas Party (where I lost my title as Squints Champion... It's sad I know), Fjord Holiday Party (bowling/kareoke party that was probably the best party this year), and the Cossette One Night In Paris Party (see pic below).

Here's to 2007!
