1/3

Razia's Shadow, New Year's Resolutions, Star Trek.

So I guess this is part of the second. Is it bad to be a copy-cat, or isn't that really the highest form of flattery?
I know I'm two days shy of a full resolution, but, I've decided to at least blog once a day. Life ranges from menial to majestic, so I suppose you can be along if you want but you are forwarned that it won't be a particulary exciting show all the time.

There are quite a few things to do in a year so I've decided to keep the list trim:
- lose my fluffy marshmallow exterior 25 pounds
- pray every day (not just when I feel like it)
- blog about something every day
- go to the library once a month and actually return the books on time

and, I suppose, to keep being me. Keep the compassion, keep the thankfullness, all that brilliant stuff that's already working. Somewhere in there are the less important things like writing another Fanfiction before I leave for college (actually getting that all squared away) and maybe just maybe getting something of substance written for the start of my writing career.

I, for the very practical reason of SHEER BRILLIANCY TO EMULATE SOMEONE OF SUCH TALENT, would love to be a modern day S.E. Hinton if that's alright. She was, what? Seventeen or eighteen when she got The Outsider's written and published? Maybe a minor descrepancy somewhere in there.

I am looking up for this part of my year; I still measure everything in semesters and I figure that'll never really change until I've graduated from college. Other than that, I hope I can bring some semblance of interest of delight to your days.

Thank you for being yourself, if no one told you today. Really.

And Star Trek, because it always is.

Picture of The Day:

Happy New Year.
May it be filled with child-like wonder and may some of that celebration

be stuck to the floor long after you mop it away

so that you can always find it again when you least expect it
(down on your knees, cleaning the corners)

"So remember, never surrender, because the unrelenting constancy of love and hope will rescue and restore you from any scope."
