Okay, so I'm a little late on this but Happy New Year <3

So what I usually do is recap my past year, but since it's already 5 days into the new year... uh, oh well I guess it's a little pointless to do so. My number of entries per month literally plummeted since Summer/Fall (didn't really check), which kinda sucks. Will try and post more often though =__= not even gonna make that into some kind of New Years resolution cuz those usually fail haha.

But uhh, this past year has been pretty rough but also good at the same time. Rough because it was the latter half of my sophomore year which has been by far the most difficult year of my college life and good because junior year has been pretty great. Had a lot of problems that were family related (well more like one problem) but things got better over the year. 

This winter break seems so much shorter, but that's probably because it is shorter---and I was also gone for a week cuz I was at St. Louis, Missouri for Urbana 2009, where I had an awesome time <3 but I can't believe I'm going back to Buffalo in just FIVE days... orz.

2009 is drawing to a swift and inevitable close and in just a few hours, all of us here at GMT will be hailing in the new year, looking forward to 2010 and all the possible joys it could bring.

A letter, anyone? :)

( Dear all. )

I set a goal for myself to read/watch a 100 new books/movies by the end of the year. Well folks, I (sorta) did it. Not with the  reading part. Shit, I was lucky to read as many as I did. I knew it was going to be harder to read that many books but it sure lit a fire under my ass to try and read as many as I could.

So far, I've managed to watch 96 new movies, which leaves me with just four (FOUR!) more movie watch before 11:59pm this Thursday. I've got to admit, I'm struggling here. I've watched 6 movies in the past 36 hours alone, so I'm not sure I can take anymore. I'm currently watching "Get Smart" and I still have "Inglorious Basterds," "The Hangover," and "Funny People," "The Unborn," and "The Haunting In Connecticut" to watch. If they could, my eyes would vomit.

As mentioned, my reading (and video game) list is significantly lower. Maybe next year I should focus solely on the books. Eh. Let's see how I ring in 2010 before I make any rash commitments to the bastard.

So did any of my lovely chickies accomplish any goals for this year? Any plans for next? I'm hoping to give the picture-a-day challenge another go next year. That is IF I can a)find my camera and b)get it serviced (ooer!).
