12-31-03 - 3:48 p.m. My new year's resolution: quit smoking
-- Talking with my Dad about politics, joking around, reciting Monty Python, playing Super Nintendo with him.
-- mania and the subsequent haircut
I got an A in acting -- I left my comfort zone.
I cheated on Bat.
Lawrence & his party crowd, Noah
I'm skinnier (a size nine), a I have short hair. I seem to be a lot more friendly, and yet a lot more misanthropic and distrustful -- but still very loving and caring about even some of my most causal acquaintances. I seem to be better at keeping friendships casual if the person doesn't seem to want to "know me." I am becoming more disciplined and learning how to drag myself to school regardless of how tired I am or how much I don't want to go. I feel especially concious of the fact that time is passing and I'm getting older and I want to "carpe diem"! The biggest change-effectors were probably knowing Bat (who was my best friend as well as boyfriend) and Dad's surgery, which put the entire family into upheaval. I am learning to stay more centered amongst the chaos that is my home. I hope to do very well in school and become more disciplined. I hope to get motivated in the direction of a certain career. I hope to have a job and live in an apartmenet with a roommate. I'd like a new best friend and to settle the entire Bat thing in my mind (most likely get over him.) I'd like to start exercising. I want to read lots of books, write lots of poems, and have a very experiential year, as this one feels it was. I want a new circle of friends and to spend less time on teh computer. I also would like to meet Doors. I don't want to date people I know I'm not interested in and be very picky about sleeping with anyone. And of course, I don't want to be smoking. This is, of course, a lot to ask for. But I think I can do it!
