As the new year rolled in I found myself asleep. My evening was spent, not in the company of Hayley or Mark, but in my own company, with a simple glass of water and season one of How I Met Your Mother. Ironically I watched the new years episode, among the four that I sat through and it got me to thinking: what should I pledge for my new year's resolution? I still don't know the answer to that question, but then I don't really fall into the idea of setting targets as specific points in time, I'm more of a set-targets-when-the-time-is-right kind of person.
With the disappearance of Mark back to Malta, I am starting to feel lonely that, coupled with the fact that I endured a dream about Hayley telling me that I had been making empty promises, brings me to a fairly low point in the grand list of new years feelings. The one high point was the arrival of wintersday hats on Guild Wars this morning, which is one of the reasons I'm up.
I guess this is a pretty gloomy new year for me. Though I tend to see this point in the calendar as just another day, but the fact that everyone else seemed to at least be with someone else last night did make me feel a little worse for wear. Christmas was fantastic as they go, merriment and lots of snuggles were made very available, and, for the first time in years, I found myself needing to seek a break from the food and general christmasness.
Sat here now, I wonder what 2011 will bring. The end of my Uni course is on the list of certainty's as is Mark moving over here, and probably a fair few holidays, learning to drive, getting a job, beginning to save for the inevitability of moving out... so much more stuff that could happen. I'm looking forward to this year with high expectations and hopes, despite the lonely beginning. Other than that today is just another day, the first of 2011, but nothing extraordinary.
Well, I guess I'll finish this first post of 2011.
Happy new year readers.
