New Year’s eve felt a little muted. Watched the fireworks from my friend’s 27th floor apartment and I guess the fireworks were a little too far away to be impressed with. Although I feel it’s more of me being mellow and less affected by the nature of things than the whole event being less than exciting. Heh.

What to do with 2007? Work harder and play as hard. I feel I haven’t been trying hard enough at work to learn as much as I can. Never thought I’d end up in the finance profession, but now that I’ve been exposed to it, I find it quite fascinating and you can learn quite a bit in this line of work. I also feel like I never play hard enough. I feel quite muted at most times, always trying to blend into the background, to best be ignored. Not that I want to stand out, but at least contribute to the fun that everyone is having.

Want to take better photos, edit them and make complete prints. Want to push myself to be able to play the flute better. Want to remember how much fun it was building websites, something that I feel I’ve lost over time. Want to spend as much time with family as possible. Want to be nicer to my friends, I can be pretty impartial at times, taking things for granted.

I want to break free from my shell. I want to feel, and not fear feeling. I want to let go. I want to be honest. I want to imagine. I want to sing.

No specific plans for the year. Studying as per usual I think, and should finish my financial course this year if all goes according to plan. Visiting New Zealand, as I said I would.

Windows Vista was delayed a year. An iPhone to be announced in the San Francisco Apple Expo next week? Logitech has a new MX Revolution of a mouse takes over from the G7 as the highest end mouse they designed.

Heh, my desk is still as cluttered as last year. I guess some things never change.
