| For 2007... |
[Jan. 1st, 2007|01:00 pm] |
Well... 2006 is over with... it doesn't seem like it should be.
Like I shouldn't be out of highschool, I should still be 18 going on 19, not 19 going on 20. I shouldn't be out on my own but living in my mother's home, I shouldn't be working at Applebees...
all of these feelings coil within me, but then I stop to think-
This year is going to be good, I can feel it.
I think all the events that happened in 2006 will only help me become a better person today. Getting my first and second tattoo, graduating from highschool, moving out, getting a job... all of these things... next I hope to start community college in the fall...
Normally I have such a pessimistic outlook on the future, why I am suddenly so bubbly and optimistic?
Well, I was watching Nana for the first time and I'll be starting episode 16 or 17 soon... and I can totally relate to Hachi. Not in the guy way, but her situation in life... being the middle child and moving out. Not only that, she is only a year older than me.
The way things go for them, it makes have faith that I will be able to make it a little longer on my own... I've already decided that sometime, I am going to take a taxi or something and go hang somewhere, try to make friends, you know?
Although I get a vibe that Nana will not be a happy series, It has giving me a weird sense of strength for my current situation in life that I had not expected it... so yay, can't wait to watch more. <3
So, in short,
Here's to the end of 2006 and the beginning of 2007.
All my Zutarian friends, let us hope that Zutara is in 2007 and that it rocks our world. =3
