It's almost a new year. The last 12 months have had some good times, and some bad. Let's take a look back on somethings, in no particular order...

...The Good

- the holiday season. I love all my friends and family. Thank you.

- being snowed in last New Years Eve with lots of booze and two of my best friends.

- my very first baseball game at Yankee Stadium. With amazing company.

- all the days spent on the beach from May through September. I miss it!

- almost getting myself lynched at the Garden during game 2 of last seasons playoffs between Boston and Montreal lol

- first kisses (some were better than others)

- my health

- the 4th of July. Holding hands while watching the fireworks.

- my first Canadiens/Bruins game of this season. Go Habs go!

- Halloweeen!

- laying on a blanket on the beach at night in September, cuddling and counting the stars.

...The Bad

- I don't dwell on the bad things.

I could go on. But I won't lie, I'm getting bored lol I'm sure 2010 will have it's ups and down too. I can't wait to see what happens.

I've heard a lot of friends the last few weeks say how much they can't wait for the new year, and how over 09 they are. But honestly, what's going to make the new year that much better? I know I've had my bad times this past year, but I've had a lot of good ones too. I know they have too. Every year has it's ups and downs. It's just how life is!

And I need to remember how to change my mood icon thingies lol

The Holidays are upon us. These days I know its not about how many gifts you get or how drunk you get.

The holidays are about Love, Forgiveness, and Acceptance.

This is easily achieved through family, but it goes beyond that. It encompasses how you treat friends (who should be family) and random people. Really, how you treat other people.

A few months ago,I felt the same way but it was only to those I loved. Since then, I've known someone with a big enough heart, and started spending time in church, so I understand those selfish feelings have no place in the world. Now I know it's how you treat everyone.

Common sense, I know. But it's weird how growing up hits different people in different ways at different times. It's a funny world. But can I still call it 'growing up'? I'm a grown ass man. lol But I like to think that we constantly evolve and change..hopefully for the better. In little ways, to be sure, but after a while those little changes add up to be a bigger one. Do I still have selfish and asshole-ish tendencies? Of course. But I'm on guard against them. If I'm joking around...it's just joking around. But if it was something more serious, and I catch it, I'm sorry for it. I've definitely learned to be more accepting and less judgemental of people. Anywayss...let's make this fun.

I just logged into my photobucket account to put up a current photo, and found sooo many old awesome ones that I'm dyingggg looking at! Like this artwork I made to demonstrate when my old futon broke haha





hahahahaha I'm so funny.


I have to say, I'm aging rather well haha though these days, the 'vanity' tattoo on my wrist is more to keep me humble. It almost works.
