New Year

So it's a new year and you know what that means..stupid resolutions that you make but secretly never intend on keeping..like losing 20 pounds, eating healthier, get more organized, etc. But before I go into all that..let me share with you the revelry of what I did tonight...I went downtown to see my friends, The Gills, play a show at Hopjacks. They were amazing, as usual. They are so entertaining and so talented (such a great mix! haha) I absolutely love seeing them! Then, to escape from the cold, we went to Subway, but had to buy something in order to stay in there, so we all get small cups of coffee, then leave (go figure) and go to a coffee shop (once again, go figure) where we sit for an hour and a half just hanging out. Then, Amber decides that we need to go out into the freezing cold to watch the oh-so-lame pelican drop from a crane. So, we venture out into the cold and crowds, pushing through the thousands of drunks to get close to the stage which had a wannabe Kiss band playing on it. So, not only are we freezing our butts off, but we're also being put through the torture of these guys dressed up like Kiss trying to make it big..So, it's down to 11:59, we all begin the countdown in anticpation of this wondrous pelican dropping...5..4...3..2..1!! The Pelican drops all of 20 ft. and confetti starts flying everywhere..drunk people are making out all around..fireworks going off in the background..people screaming..it was seriously so much fun. I mean..it was lame..but I guess that's sorta what made it fun..I was with some of my closest friends, laughing at the idiocracy of it all and it ended up being one of the best New Year's Eves I've had. Go figure...haha.

So back to resolutions and how it's stupid to make them cuz you're more likely to break them and make yourself feel guilty about it, then to actually succeed in going through with it. I have made so many resolutions and to be honest, I don't know if I've kept even one..It's sad but true. So my "New Year's resolution" this year is to not have any. Haha..I have my goals (cuz what's life if you have nothing to look forward to), but I refuse to be upset if I dont reach all of them. I am going to do my best to further my relationship with God and be led by the Holy Spirit in all I do, but I refuse to condemn myself if I mess up. I'll repent and move on..nothing else to it. Make sense? So..there you go..that's all I have to say..so Happy New Year to everyone..I pray that this year, you encounter God in deeper ways..and that through your relationship with Him, you are blessed so abundantly, you dont have adequate room to contain them all!
