Happy New Year 2006 (Very Original Title)

Yzabel / January 1, 2006

Into 2006 we now are. It’s odd. Poof, in a snap of fingers, it was 00:01, and another year. Where has 2005 gone?

Time is a weird, weird concept.

I’m not taking any resolutions for the year. Resolutions begin to sound like saying “I’ll go to the gym every day”, only to give up comes February because I want to make it too much, too fast, too perfect. I don’t see why I should bother with resolutions–I’ll do what I have to do, but on my terms, not because January 1st is some kind of magical number that will make everything easier. I don’t need a new year to start exercising more, or write more (already doing it, anyway). Let’s see, if I hadn’t taken my “resolution” in summer, I’d have started working on my writing now, instead of six months earlier!

Alright, this is said in joke. However, I still haven’t listed any. They just don’t feel right. They sound like some compulsory task, like an automatism everybody has to go through because it’s a new year. Resolutions can be taken and started any day, and I’ll decide on mine when the right time comes.

In the meantime, I hope that 2006 wil be a good year for everyone!

    Hehe, I found it weird that whilst we were in 2006, most of the rest of the world was still in 2005. That felt strange.Anyway, Happy New Year. 🙂

    No New Year resolutions? That’s a good resolution, Yzabel. :)Hope 2006 is a spectacular year for you.

    Yer, no resolutions for me either, just some plans for the year.

    Thanks, everyone :)Karen, I found this amusing too. Reading Australian and Japanese blogs on the 31st and seeing the 2006 date felt somewhat like the twilight zone 🙂

    I never make resolutions. Well okay, I do, but never on New Years. I do it every day of the year. I’m always striving to somehow be just a little better. So it’s not ‘a resolution’ per say it’s more how I look at living life, always trying to make the best out of it.When I let an experience pass me by, I realize it and tell myself next time the opportunity exists I’m going to go for it.There’s always something I learning, doing, experiencing, or sometimes even letting pass by me. So I just take those experiences and try to build off them. That’s my everyday resolution, to live life as best I can.To me that’s better than any one day resolution that is given because it’s expected of people.So yeah…I don’t do the whole New Years Resolution thing either 🙂
