Happy New Decade

I had pizza for my New Year’s Eve dinner. I went to bed at 9-ish, woke up at 11:55pm and made a pathetic attempt to live stream fireworks from my window. Then went to bed again. I sort of just gave up on the whole New Year’s Resolution thing. You do it or you don’t.

Hold on, it is still 2009 in Vancouver, so technically I still have time.

Year 2009 was not the best year for most people. It felt like there were ongoing sad news happening every other month, not only to me, but to the people I care about. There were also a couple #fml moments, but those were mostly my fault. I overcame them and forgave myself by spontaneous shopping and traveling.

One of the 2009 resolutions was to stop visiting Japan 2 or 3 times a year. I ended up only going once on a very cheap ($390) ticket, so that did not count.

But I went to San Francisco three times, and spent a lot on money on a course to get myself certified, so I was much worse financially in 2009.

At least I took the course and did what I had to do. I am definitely seeing a career shift and I get to spend more time on things I am keen on, so that was an “UP” for 2009.

Happy New Year! Honnen mo douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu.

I typed this up in OmmWriter. Take a look at how Zen it is.
