2009

Every new year's eve, I fall asleep on my suede brown couch. This year was no exception. I believe and I contribute all of this sleepiness to my lack of resolution.

Why do we ever need a different resolution every year? Read any self-help books and bang!, there is a dictation of us needing to have objectives in life. So everybody does it. But it doesn't mean that an individual will have to start afresh on the booming of new year's firecracker or the click of the clock striking 12. Do it every day, every morning, every night or what is the harm of having a new perspective on Thursdays. Why not?

It's not that I don't have any resolution. I do - maybe I am just not resolute enough. Writing my thoughts down seems to be such a chore. Having this particular blog to focus on some positive energy churns out all of my strength.

Last week, all of my new students asked me if I weren't teaching what would I do. The first choice of answer - lady of leisure (boink, boink!). Lady of leisure in my world would definitely mean that the champ of space staring. Second answer - a farmer. Fortunately, the origin of all my students are definitely malays, if otherwise, they would either roll their eyes - what in the world she is thinking??? or the safest bet of all - they just laugh their heads off.

So maybe my 2009's resolution is to in anyway be economical in telling the truth to those who have sufficient will to listen to me. Strangely, I found this motivating as well as amusing.
