Well, it's the new year, everyone! 

Everyone always asks me what my resolutions are and I usually don't even try anymore.  The last resolution I made was to swear less and some other shit...so we can see how well that went.

As far as news goes, I start school next monday (the 12th) and I'm Oh-so-excited... I'm kind of looking forward to it, my classes seem pretty interesting.

So all in all, I'm OK with this upcoming semester.  I wasn't thrilled about last semester and I missed Dean's list by a point or so (figures). Oh well, c'est la vie, eh?

Other than that, no news:  Things are going wonderfully with Paul and I couldn't be more happy than I am.  He gave me the sweetest Christmas gift and I proceeded to ball in front of my parents.  Luckily, they really like him a lot--which came in quite handy when Paul told my father that we are in a serious relationship that is more than (as he says) "a fart in the wind".  My dad was happy to hear it. ::whew::

Paul and I are looking for apartments around my school area because we are hoping to live together--sometime in May. <3 I'm really looking forward to it but it's really hard trying to find a place because a lot of people don't respond. Bleh.  Not to mention I'm so damn poor. No good.

I'm house-sitting for my brother for about a week starting tomorrow. I think it will be nice and calming, I could use some time to myself, though I will miss my puppies. Obviously, I'll miss my family, but my dad has a way of making holidays and weekends horrendous. 
whew.

Well, it's late and I'm exhausted.  I felt the need to post something since the last two entries were drivel and surveys. Though, I can count on one hand the people who are reading this. ;) 

I hope everyone has a happy new year and I wish everyone the best.
