twenty-ten

a new decade doesn't feel any different, doesn't look or sound any different. i guess it depends on how you look at it though.
'new beginnings' doesn't seem like a right way to bring in the new year. who is really going to drop everything and start over? who will choose to forgive, or forget, or change important and crucial elements of the way they currently live? i know i won't. so i'll start with baby steps, that i will (for the most part) try my best to succeed with. less procrastinating, save more money, keep my room a little cleaner, for my mom's sanity. open myself up to things like never before, because now i have the means, maturity, and mindset. don't be afraid to make decisions, as important or minor as they may be. make it count - every day, that is. pay more attention to the things that really matter. try not to be afraid of the future; embrace it, prepare for it, love it. we'll see how all this goes.
