Welcome to 2009.

16 01 2009

It’s definitely been a while since I posted anything here. And while I love this site, I’m almost positive that I need to write more stuff here.

So, the topics for the day:

- Welcome to 2009!

- Barack Obama takes office in 4 days.

- I can’t think of much else. [Insert it here.]

So. Let’s start.

Welcome to 2009!

It’s kinda weird, thinking that the only thing that’s changed is that the “8″ has turned into a “9″ and it makes everything so… different. But, when you think about it, it is a different experience now. You have 365 days to make a change, to make a difference in the world. If you didn’t get to it in 2008, 2009 is your year, right?

I don’t really do New Years Resolutions. Normally, I don’t do them. Or, at least I’ll start them and then get to February and ditch them in the water like they don’t matter. Because they don’t. Normally, the New Years Resolutions I make don’t really forition to much of anything anyway, so it’s not big deal, at least for me. BUT, I do make goals. Goals are better for me to keep, because I’m very goal-oriented to begin with. Needless to say, goals are better for me.

Goals:
- Lose a good amount of weight. Maybe I can wear decent jeans now.
- Become a better, well-rounded person. I’m already well-rounded… just wanna get better at it.
- Become more out-spoken. Speak up for what’s on my mind.
- Figure out the Relationship Department of my life. See where that leads me.
- Stick to the true me, overall. That’s the most important goal in mind.

Hopefully I can keep these goals. I’ve got 365 days (well, from January 1st) to do it.

Barack Obama takes office on January 20th.

I do believe that this will be an interesting 4 years, and I’ve viewed this from both sides.

I view it from both sides because, if you think about it, as a Moderate, I have the idea, and the knowledge, to be very versatile. In that aspect, I’m perfectly OK with the fact that Obama’s taking office. Not to mention, he’s in there for the next 4 years so it’s not like there’s much anyone can do. I’m glad the hubbub surrounding this has fallen down, although in the next 4 days it’ll pick up again, I’m sure. Facebook is connecting with CNN to broadcast the Inauguration live. I dunno if I’m going to watch it or not, I guess it just depends on my schedule and my current interest level. I’m SURE my family will be tuning in LIVE to watch it, on whatever channel will come on. I mean, I’m making an effort to understand the workings of Barack Obama. I even bought one of his books.(I also needed reading material for my flight.) I haven’t ready much into it, but he seems like a good family man thus far. I have to give his props to that. I want to see him outside of politics first, before I dive in to what he plans to do.

I guess I’m giving him a shot. It’s worth it at this point. Not much else I can do, right? I mean, it’ll be 4 years before anyone can change it.

Other stuff?

The economy sucks. You don’t want to get me started.

MySpace is totally out. Everyone should get Facebook. It’ll make my life easier.

YouTube is my life now. You should check out the vloggers and people on there, like Blade 376, Carlkr, WhatTheBuckShow, Osomasters, and whatever your heart desires!

OK, I think I’m done.
I’ll do this more often, like at the end of a busy work week.
Although I don’t have a job… even though being a full-time student is like a job, right?
