A New Year

I woke up this morning with a renewed sense of optimism this morning. I know it's a new year, but I feel different this year as opposed to other new years. I'm not really sure what that's about. Maybe I'm entering into a new season. Maybe I'm finally growing up. Either way, I'm happy to feel this way.

I did go out and buy my planner yesterday, and I have already started using it. Just in these few short hours, I've realized how important it is to start planning...I mean REALLY planning things. It's much better to put things on pen and paper in an orgranized, designated space as opposed to just having random sheets of paper all over the place.

Last night, I went to New Year's Eve mass. I have NEVER done that before either. I am very happy that I went, even though the church services were like being at a rock concert. Regardless, it was nice going into the new year the right way.

I am ready to face whatever challenges 2010 has for me knowing that whatever happens is a learning experience and that I will be able to get through it as a stronger, better person. That's not to say that you won't catch me complaining on here (because I am still human, lol), but at least I know that whatever it is I'm complaining about won't last forever.

Let's go 2010!
