________________________________________________________________
hi,

new year's resolutions, i don't have any however i did promise myself that i will make an effort to write more in my journal. i think not having a desk and not having a reason to pretend that i am actually working affected my entire routine. anyhoo i just checked blog-city and it seems that my blog site no longer exists. 4 years worth of entries gone in an instant. 4 years of my life lost in cyberspace.

2008, i like the way it looks. it looks soft, round like your grandmother soft to the touch and radiates warmth when you hug her.

stability is the only thing i wish for in 2008. no more packing, unpacking, saying goodbye, tears, homesickness and "i am new here so i don't really know what to do" answers.

so here's to stability and routines. to children's runny noses and scraped knees. to lesson plans and the embarrassment of singing in front of the entire class. here's to the life i chose to live...

happy new year!

much love,
nicole

2007 in a nutshell

________________________________________________________

to hell with it
i'm going to have a party

i had the blankest year
i saw life turn into a tv show
the person i knew
i didn't really know

time don't move
we're the only ones who do
bending reason
coz it's all we hold on to

nada surf, blankest year
