Approaching The New Year

As new year comes, I always get philosophic about the year that is going to become a part of history. This year is no exception as I ponder and ponder about everything that has happened for this year. For starters, thie year would be the year that I spend my whole full year in US. Much has changed since Jan 1st till now. There is some things that I wish I could change albeit I never regret my decisions. I just bear the consequences and hopefully I would learn from it.
This is the first time in 2 over years that I could have my whole family here. Of course there are additions to the 'family' that includes my sister's husband Chris and her daughter Zoey. There is also an unofficial addition of Richard, my sister's boyfriend. Haha it's only official when they're married I guess. *hint*hint* ;P
I guess the cliche thing to do now is to do a new years resolution, follow it religiously for the first week of new year and then screw it and forget about it. However, my new years resolution is not to make any new years resolution. Haha that's an oxymoron for you. The thing is that new year's resolutions which generally are meant to be for the better are always not achieved cause either they're too ambitious or too vague. In the end most resolutioners would achieve nothing, get dissappointed, get wasted and then declare their resolution with a three quarter empty bottle of whiskey on the other hand. All I'm trying to say that instead of making glorified and big resolutions, we should be aim small and have specific series of resolutions. For example maybe by march I should apply at least 10 jobs and to have at least 3 interviews, by graduation I have at least 2 job offers that is related to automobile marketing in California and to buy my realistic Honda Fit at the end of the year. A vague resolution would be to have a good paying job and to work towards it. An ambitious one would be to be a VP of an automobile marketing and have my seven cars that i could drive every other day. Resolutions can be done any time of the year. Hell i can even make a resolution right now instead of the new year.
So what am I gonna do on New Years eve? Ideally I just want to spent some time alone on the beach side, sipping champagne and watch the sun set while telling myself what a year 2007 has been. If there is one word that sums up year 2007, it would be Unexpected.
