It is New Year's Eve and here I sit at home.
Alone.
Great combination? Absolutely not.
But such is the way things are in life, some days are better then others and all anyone can do is face it and deal with it as it comes. I can only hope that tomorrow and 2007 will mean bigger and better things to come in life.
Anyway, that is that and now onto what I came here to do. And no, that wasn't to bitch about a laundry list of things that I can easily rant on about. No, that would be far too easy and a tiny bit tasteless on my part. So with that being said, we shall proceed.
One thing I am hoping for is that this entry will not end up as a giant mass of text as did my previous post. While it is true that it is still readable, but as a wall of text? No thanks.
So at long last I was able to see the ending of Samurai 7 and needless to say, I was a little surprised and sad at the same time as well. A part of me wanted the series to continue, as the way I felt as I watched the ending to Samurai Champloo, and see what becomes of the characters.
But such is not the case and so I bid adeiu to yet another series and in it's place, I welcome Burst Angel. Obviously (at least to me), this one is a far cry from the last two series I had watched (and just mentioned). Still, it is a interesting series and I can only hope that this one will have a slightly more diffenitive end.
Miami Vice was a much better movie that even I expected, though my only real complaint about is the fact that the story itself seem to jump around just a tad bit too much. Or at least more then I tend to care for. Still, I liked it and I thought it was a heck of a job done by both Collin Farrel and Jamie Foxx.
Now I have been thinking and I remembered that I had mentioned that I would be posting basically everyday at least in the month of January. Will that even be possible for me? Well, I think the short answer would be yes. Yes it would be easy for me to post every single day, but would it all be worth reading? Likely not.
Still, it is a challenge I have wanted to give a shot at and I am definately going to be throwing a lot of brain cells and thoughts and such at this particular task.
Another hope I have is work and how I hope that things will finally lighten up a bit around there. I know for a fact that I am not the absolute hardest worker there, but I have been pushing myself like crazy this past week and today (which, by the way, is normally my LAZY day) it felt pretty much like it had caught up to me.
But by no means am I bitching, I mean it pays fairly well (by that I mean it pays a lot better then my previous job to which I will write nothing of because even after a year, I have nothing nice to really say).
All in all, my one truth of a resolution for 2007 is to strive, every day and as best as I can, to become a better worker and a better person overall. By this time next year, I would like to be able to say that I have truly improved myself as a person or else 2007, to me, will be a year of failure. And after spending much of '06 as a failure, I surely do not want to walk down that path again.
So with that said, I shall return to post again when the clock strikes midnight and 2006 fades away and in comes the year 2007.
