A Fresh Start.

I've always liked the end of first semester in school. It means a fresh start, a chance to begin again, a better and more knowledgeable person.

I've been listening to my iPod on random as I study for exams, and the song "It's a New Day" by will.i.am seems to be continuously playing. The inauguration is in less than a week.

It's a good time to be alive. :)

Resolutions

So far... not so good. I got the first half of the week, and that was about it. I'm telling myself that I shouldn't expect a 100% effort at the very start, but I still do want it. I guess I'll just tell myself "maybe next week", and renew my commitment.

2009

For the first time in my life, I'm making a New Years Resolution that I know I'm going to work at maintaining, a resolution that I truly and wholly want to succeed. In addition to my "main" resolution, I have other small resolutions, but those won't be my focus for 2009.

My resolution:
I want to be a healthy person.

This has a lot of different facets that I'm slowly adding on to, but I want to eat regular and healthy meals, exercise more frequently, get enough sleep, and just have a generally healthier life. (I'm also going to cook more, which goes along with the healthier eating).

I am officially starting on Monday, January 5th, 2009. (It's 2009 already. Wow.)

(Perhaps writing this message and maybe further updates will help inspire me to maintain my resolution?)

Best wishes and hopes for a happy 2009.
