Here We Are

In about 9 hours, this year, and more importantly this decade, will come to a conclusion. And because I'm not really capable of explaining this past decade, I'd rather reflect back on the year that was. Overall, 2009 was a great year all around. I did so many things and had so many things happen that I never would have dreamed of. First off, on just the second day of 2009, I fell in love with Lexa. Almost a whole year has passed since that point, and the current love I have for her isn't even close to that puppy love that it was back then. I won a championship, and so did the Yankees! I put up four consistent quarters in school, and am currently going further and further up the rankings in terms of myself. I finally clensed myself of who I used to be and am now all in all, a much better and more rounded individual than I was when this year started. Its really odd that two people undergo such change in their mental make-up, and still feel so strongly about one another. If it wasn't for the love and support of each other, we probably couldn't of done it. So I take this space here to thank you Lexa, for everything that you helped me along with this year. And I turn am glad for the love and support that gave to you as well this year. We bettered ourselves and developed as human beings to levels that twelve months ago probably would have been jokes.

So good-bye 2009. You'll always have a place in my heart for the sentimental value that you contain within. But at the same time, I welcome 2010 with open arms, anxious to see what this year can hold, and if it can somehow, top the year that currently passed.

Resolutions

Here are things that I wish to accomplish/goals for the year 2010:

-Have a 100+ average for the remaining 3 quarters(I'll live with 2 out of 3)
-Learn at least 3 of these songs: The Unforgiven, Nothing Else Matters, Wonderwall, All of This, Welcome Home(Sanitarium), ...And Justice for All, Sweet Home Alabama. If I happen to actually get the electric guitar, add Seek and Destroy, One, Fade to Black, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and The Thing That Should Not Be.
-Get my weight down to between 185-205. With that, I mean go down to at least having potentially forming abs. Same goes for the rest of the body. Basically, a full body tone.
-Get a job.
-Regardless if I make it or not, put enough effort into Baseball tryouts that people know you mean business.
-Learn how to properly pitch. Everyone says I have the body for it, well, now lets put this body to work. The slimming down will also help the velocity.
-Get a 5 on at least 1 of those 3 AP exams. I'm not gonna set unrealistic goals for myself and say all 3. I do however, feel that if I have a good chance at any of them, its Chem. But overall goals, get at least a 3 on all of them.
-Continue to eat healthier.
-Read 10 books. Starting off the New Year reading Joe Torre's helps too.

That's really it. Everything else is really a wish. You know, the usual: Get out of here, things get even better, etc. Can't wait for 2010!

And I Will Kick This Cold

Well, what is there really to say lately. Its true that there isn't much to write about when you're just up up and away. Although I have been a little under the weather lately, I still am happier than ever. I am no longer cut off from the world, mom is working, things are just finally going well. I know times such as this has happened before, but this is entirely different. There is finally...finally some faith in me that this is actually numbering these days of being here.

Anywayyyyy, things to do today since if I were to go outside I'd probably become frozen on impact:
-Finish AP US outlines. Both Cleveland terms shouldn't be that hard. I'll be really pissed if this doesn't recieve a +. I've been working my ass off and people had in shit and get +'s. I know hardwork pays off in the end, and it better apply to this situation.
-Play with my guitar. Learn the whole acoustic part to The Unforgiven, since I now know that its picked regularly.
-*fingers crossed on this one* Spend the day talking to my extremely lovely girlfriend. Nothing bad will happen to you on my watch, at least I hope not.
-Start Chem? Nahhhhhh....maybe :p.

Finally...

The ebb and flow that is my life is finally at a balance. For the current moment, I cannot see the peak in which the rollercoaster rides up towards. I actually enjoy this feeling. The feeling of being at ease with everything. Maybe its just the linger of holiday feelings, who knows. All I know, is that I'm digging it and gonna keep digging it until its gone.

Most importantly, I'm finally doing things right again. I don't know what went wrong. But sometimes, its good to forgive and forget when the dice are rolling and everythings moving along.

Merry Christmas

I'm finally beginning to embrace the holidays. I got a phone finally! Everyone loved my gifts that for the first year, were actually of good quality. Most importantly, Lexa enjoyed her gifts and liked being with me and my family. I hope my mom takes up Aunt Lisa's offer and we all go out there for New Years. It would end my year on a perfect note if I could end the best year of my life happy with my family, and most importantly, my beautiful girlfriend.

Countdown to Opening Presents: 1 hour, 48 minutes

They Put A Bullet In Your Fucking Head

Well, since today I am free of assignments since I took the initiative yesterday, I don't know what to do with myself! I'm so used to coming home and doing AP US for hours, that I forget what I can do when I actually have free time. Well, hopefully we go running today. If not, I'll spend the day talking to that really beautiful girl I love. She is really great to me :).

Funnn

Yesterday was a great success. For once, I'm happy with what I'm giving people for Christmas this year. I actually feel like I accomplished something for once around the holidays.

As Metallica says good-bye on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Concert, some things:
-I started my AP essay. Arguementative writing doesn't seem that challenging.
-I'm going to laugh tomorrow when Jimmy finds out his Christmas Present is a can of Monster.
-That story is going to be even funnier :D!
-Gonna go pick up one more gift for Beautiful tomorrow I think.
-Excited for those guitars. That's when I'll really kick it up and go all out on trying to play it.
-I need to do more baseball things. Unfortuntately, this year, winter really is winter.
