Overall it has been a pretty good year. There are a few things that I would change, but, for the most part, I don’t think I would do anything differently. I’ve changed a lot, as is to be expected, but I’m overall happy with the changes.

And now for 2007-
Resolutions/Goals-

1.) Get my associates.
2.) Post on my various blog sites at least twice a month.
3.) Lose at least 20 pounds.
4.) Move away from home.
5.) Procrastinate less.
6.) Lie less (convince myself that it’s not worth the 20 points extra credit)
7.) Take more time just to relax with people.
8.) Keep a job for more than a year.
9.) Give hugs more frequently.
10.) Write letters to people on time and send them on time.
11.) Cross at least 5 more things off my life goals list.

We’ll see how I do.
