Happy New Year!

i went to my high school friend, Pat’s (not roommate Pat) house for a little get together. saw some friends, reminisced, had some laughs, etc. it was a good time. but still, i miss my chicago friends and wish rush would be over already so i could stop being so anxious about talking to all those freshmen girls and trying to sell the sorority to them. i think about all the things i have to get done the first few weeks of the quarter and i want to curl up into a ball and weep. but tonight was fun and i hope everyone had a good time at their homes, or in europe (kate, mike – screw you both…i say that with love).

but on to the resolutions:

• my mom’s new year’s resolution is to start referring to the year as ‘twenty-oh-three’ instead of ‘two thousand three’ and to mail birthday/anniversary cards at least 5 days in advance.
• my dad’s resolution is to try to get along better with his mother in law.
• my resolutions are to not be afraid of saying what i mean (or what i’m thinking when i think it), to go to classes at eac at least twice a week, and to spend at least half an hour a day on leisure reading, preferrably right before bedtime.

these seem reasonable to me. i particularly like the part where i get to read every night. hooray!
