It just takes some time..

It's been a while since I've written, and I felt like I should post an update.

The truth is I don't have anything to say. Next month will be a different story. I have concerts I'll be attending, including the one I mentioned back in November. Where hopefully I'll be reunited with a cute boy I met. After my tax return is filed I'll know where I stand on the new car situation.

January is pretty much a turd of a month in my book. Nothing great happens. I spend most of the month being pissed off for no particular reason. Its too cold. It's like a waiting room for awesomeness. Generally, February tends to be pretty freaking awesome. I guess January is the calm before the storm. Whatever.

Next month, I do promise you at least 2 worthwhile posts. Maybe even with pictures!

Also, revisit Jimmy Eat World. I downloaded their new album, getting ready to see them on the 4th, and man. Really fantastic. They're one of those bands that you can listen to for the first time in years and your heart still races with love for them.
"No Sensitivity" is still my favorite JEW song. But for real, give them a listen. Really great.

So this is the New Year

I had intended to make a post reflecting back on 2010. Talking about my favorite albums of the year, my favorite movies, my favorite memories.

But I didn't. I sat down a couple times to do it, and everything I was going to say everyone had already said before. So, let's make a different kind of New Year's post.

It is not a big secret that New Year's Eve is my favorite holiday. I have always believed that the way you spend New Year's Eve is a preview of how you will spend the upcoming year.

I went out alone on New Year's this year. I dressed super cute, and went out. I danced and drank and really enjoyed myself. I got hit on! And then I went to a party at my friend's house where the drinking, dancing and enjoyment continued. A pretty good night, a good idea of what 2011 holds for me, I think.

I'm not really a resolution person. Mostly because I'm honest and know I won't stick to any of them. Instead I prefer to think of things I want to bring into the new year with me to make it as much of a kick ass year as I can.

This year I've decided not to take any shit from anyone. No one will stand in my way from the things I want to do. I am going to make shit happen.

In 2011 I refuse to be sad over boys. I had spent 2010 (and a lot of the years before) sad over boys. This is a total waste of time. I am far too awesome to let something silly like a boy make me sad. I hope to do a lot of dating this year and maybe meet someone and get serious with them, but if it doesn't work out, I won't dwell in it.

I plan on continue to keep growing my hair out. I've been doing pretty well, but I had a fried hair incident in October which cost me three inches. Long hair or bust! Also I have a perm pact for this fall that I gotta stick with!


I guess that's really it. But I plan on making this year really awesome and memorable.

I've been waiting impatiently for February for over 3 months. There's 3 concerts I can't wait for (Hello Goodbye, Jimmy Eat World and The Get Up Kids), and in February I should finally be able to get a new car. If the first two months of 2011 are to be any indicator, this year is going to be one for the record books!

I hope you all have a kick ass 2011. Do something fun and adventurous! Laugh way too hard as often you can, and dance every chance you get!
