Hello 2010!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Well, here starts another one, and I don't know about you, but I'm ready for it! I hope you all had a wonderful evening. Our quiet night in was spoiled slightly because Mr Lollipop was poorly, bless him. It was still nice to spend some time together doing nothing though. We were glad to have the house to ourselves and to unwind from the chaotic Christmas.
Have you made any resolutions? I know many people don't bother because they don't keep them, but I do (make them that is, not keep them). This year, my resolutions are:
1. As always, eat less, move more. Sounds simple, but it's one of the hardest concepts my brain just cannot seem to comprehend. Ho hum. And, like I always am on January 1st, I'm feeling incredibly motivated.
2. Stop biting my nails. It's a disgusting habit and I've done it since I was a little girl. My Daddy bites his nails, so I used to copy him and now I can't break out of it, so whenever I want nice nails the fake ones have to be put on, which is a) a pain in the ass and b) expensive.
3. Break out of my neutrals rut. I love neutrals, but I love colours too, and at the moment I'm wearing the same old things.
4. Remove my make-up every single night. Without fail! I'm quite slack in this so... Must try harder.
5. Drink less Diet Coke and more water. I weaned myself off Diet Coke and went for months without it. It's only since the beginning of November I started drinking it again, but I've been drinking far too much. Easily a few cans a day. I felt better when I didn't drink it, but not drinking it is hard because I siffer from withdrawal headaches.
What are yours? xx
New Year New Blog (post)
I'm going to be working on this blog throughout the day.
First off I want to say that after seeing the tag #10yearsago on twitter it prompted me to read my old dairy from 10 years ago when I wrote about new years eve 1999 and new years day 2000. Most of the entry from 1999 was about watching New Years celebrations all over the world.
My song of 1999 was...guess; ok it was "New" by No Doubt.
I wrote about Letterman's predictions. (For some reason they are hard to read on the official CBS site. Just highlight them)
What the hell I'll just post them here. But now looking back at them them were just dumb I don't know why I thought they were so funny. I was 15 and stupid.

Top Ten Effects of Y2K
Stuff's gonna 'splode. The Big Dipper will fall out of the sky and kill a guy in Sweden.
Everyone's voice will suddenly sound exactly like mine. Michael Jackson will finally look in the mirror and say, "My God, what the hell is wrong with me?" There will be a new letter added to the English alphabet--"Ngeepee." A computer glitch will force Bill Gates to pay off every American's credit card. No more answering the phone by saying: "Yello!"
Every kid will lose interest in that Pokemon crap. Ricky Martin will become even more "mantastic." Despite assurances from high-ranking officials that it could not happen, refuting decades of conventional scientific wisdom, flying the in the face of smug predictions by so-called experts, Kraft Macaroni & Cheese will become even cheesier. On the plus side, kitties will be slightly cuter.
Dog and cats will have to be re-neutered. That Regis show will be called "Who Wants A Gallon of Pure Water and Some Ammo?" Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen will grow 50 feet tall and begin eating people. Even if you're wearing neither shirt nor shoes, you may actually get service. The "g" in "gnome" will no longer be silent. Wednesday and Thursday will switch places.
ATM machines will now dispense cash in "original" or "mesquite barbecue." Census computers will change every name in America to Tony Danza. Jumping on a trampoline will no longer be fun. The sun won't work until next Thursday. Let's just say Ellen and Anne will be back on our team again. Those aliens they're storing in Area 51 will come back to life, and boy will they be pissed. Let's just say you folks in Iowa better know how to swim.
Ok enough about what I thought about 10 years ago. You know what if I'm not buy in April I have a fun little blog I'll post reminiscing about something that happened to me 10 years ago.
The New Years Eve show on Fox was pretty bad. Showing highlights from the Billboard awards from the past decade? Tell me if you know what is wrong with that statement? The award ceremony hasn't been televised since 2006. That was the last year. So they'd only have 6 years of moments. Well at least it's better than the shows they had been showing the previous few years that were just promoting their bowl games. Fox what happened to you!? You use to be so edgy remember that? I miss when they use to have Penn and Teller.
I didn't make any resolutions this year because I usually break them anyway. I think my record is 3 days. I was on a diet for 3 days. This was a long time ago though back when I was in junior high. The ushering in of a new year does not dictate that you should improve yourself. Anyway I'm still working on; having better hair, dressing more age appropriate, finishing college, and committing to a major.
The funny thing about a new year is that starting on the first pretty much everything is "last year". Too bad you can't have "items from the future". Then you would never have things that are "last year".
Oh goody! The list of banned words it out. I'll make sure not to use them. Oh! Too late! I already did in one of my tags! DAMN! >:( For the record nobody should use the word "chillaxin'" ever! Not even the 4Kids dub Musa.
(Let me throw up now). If you use the word "transparent"/"transparency" in it's correct usage is it bad? Ex: Do you have a transparency for the overhead projector? Well in 2008 I almost did it, but started using the word "random" towards the end of the year. (Bad Me!)
I'll leave you with one last thought. How long will it be before getting nostalgic for the 90s becomes common place? Especially since the 90s kids are entering college now. I've been nostalgic for it since about 2003. As long as I don't end up on a make over show because I'm accused of "living in the 90s". *whispers* I never really left it. LOL! :P
