Happy New Year to all of you!... 1998 didn't seem to be a spectacular year for most... so I'm wishing you a much better year this time around... for some reason, I have a pretty good feeling about this coming year - even with all my friends leaving before September and the threat of working in the real world close at hand... it's a strange peaceful feeling... I dunno - I've been very wrong before about these kind of things... = /... new year's resolutions - 1. be nicer to my family - it's so hard to be in good humour after getting off work and home's the 1st place I can take out my post-work "aggression"... 2. try and be a little more sociable and tell people how I really feel (good and bad) and how much I appreciate them - I want so much to be more myself in front of others... that's about all I could think of... just hope I can work 'em out... good luck on carrying out all of your resolutions... since we all know, inside ourselves, our weaknesses that affect not only ourselves, but all others, I believe that if we could all just succeed in doing that, I think the world would be a much better place... so I wish you all success and a better new year... peace, love, empathy...
