[QUOTE="DDK, post: 550592, member: 6469"] Ironically enough, after just posting a rant about why I hate Christmas, I have to say that disliking New Years Eve is kinda strange. I mean, even the communists Chinese celebrate it, albeit at a different time :D I have very little to be thankful for but each NYE I reasses my life and sort out my goals. Last year was the only NYE where I made no NYE resolutions because things were basically as grim as they could get for me and I wasn't looking forward to anything. But, like always, I picked myself up and strove ahead, despite being kicked back down into the gutter and never seeming to be able to get ahead in life. Next year I will be going to school to get my High School Diploma in order to get into University the following year. It's something I've tried a dozen times before but have always had something in my life go south and make it impossible to accomplish. But next year is MY year. I give a frig about anything else. I'll starve if I have to. I'll steal if I have to, I don't care, I'm going to finish that damn diploma and get top marks, join a top Uni and do honours in script writing and film making and become a damn film maker even if it kills me (I'll be the first undead director! Well... after Spielberg that is...). That's what NYE is about to me. A self-assessment, reevaluation and cathartic climax of the years events and the following years goals. Every NYE resolution I've ever made, I've lived up to, whether it was as simple as "Give up smoking" or "Get fit (that's another of next years ones :) )" or as involved as "Get top marks in Diploma!" or "Achieve World Domination!", it doesn't matter, for it is all a part of the journey through life that each of us makes at his or her own speed.
