New Years Day

Well it is new years day. I thought I should do a little blog to help observe the monumental 1st day of the new decade. Plus I haven't blogged in about a month so I felt guilty.

I guess I will start by recapping the events that have occurred since my last blog. I went through finals week, which was close to hell, but I pulled through. I haven't gotten all my grades back yet because my professors are lazy when it comes to reporting grades, but I think it is another banner semester for good grades. During the weeks of finals and the week after finals was a lot of relatives visiting and last minute x-mas shopping. I did most of my x-mas shopping online before December so that was not too stressful. If I had to rate this last semester of college I would say it has been the best so far. I am a very motivated student now, and I actually get work and studying/reading done during the semester and not last minute/day before situations. Plus my increasing relationships with FA and meeting a lot of new people added to its score. After christmas I kept pretty busy. With relatives, friends, and family. The curb rebel Christmas party was fun, even though the game of Life probably was not the best idea. Then Christmas day was as usual one of the best days of the year. However, It was not the best christmas I have ever had. It just did not have anything major of special this year. But christmas is christmas and christmas is always good. The next event was caspers. Caspers was very fun this year. It had a lot of the same qualities as last year, rain, campsite #9, painful sleep, and a very nice fire. This year we got to go on the trails this time and that was awesome. The East Ridge trail had an excellent view. Lots of good conversations and a very warm fire were the best part. Then there was new years eve, which was very quiet this year. It turned out to be a nice and peaceful way to end out the year.

Oh and I forgot to mention the Finance Association banquet . We ate at the Orange Hill restaurant and had a very good turnout of members. The view from the restaurant was amazing. You could see all of Orange county. It was nice seeing everyone there after the stressful finals were over.

So 2010 is here. Have you made your new years resolutions? I've made some. A lot of mine are typical, eat better and stuff like that. However I do have a few original resolutions that I plan to keep this year. My overall opinion for 2010 is that it is going to be a very eventful year with new changes. I just have this feeling. If all goes well and according to plan, I will be a lot happier, wealthier, and overall a better person.

I celebrated the first day of the new decade by doing a 4 hour deep clean of the Camry. I hope when it is time to celebrate the new decade January 1st, 2020, I will be deep cleaning a Ford GT Shelby Mustang.

The one lesson I learned from 2009:
- Never verse a computer on hardest on Age of Empires.

See ya 2009, Hello 2010!
