Happy New Year!

It's official 2007 is (finally) here! I just about had it with 2006 anyways with all the drama and stress. This year I don't want to have resolutions that I will give up after a week, but have goals that I can manage. 2007 is going to be about enjoying the simple things and getting away from the ideal of "the bigger, the better"; becoming a more aware and mature person continously growing and learning more about my surroundings and the world; making better career choices on both the "regular" and entrepreneurial sides; being more social and keeping in better contact with friends; contnuing my quest to stay away from the "keeping up with the joneses" theory; and of course the good-ol stand by, have better eating habits and exercise a little bit.

It's crazy how your will power and patience can be tested. I love my friends like they were my family, in some cases I love them more than my own family, but like with any person you regularly interact with, there's gonna be those times where you get sick of them. I had an episode on Friday when I ran into a friend that was home from college and we were having a catch up talk, and afterwards I realized how it seems like everybody in this one circle of friends, seemed to dislike one another and how I'm caught in the middle of all the drama.

I'm tired of drama!

It's one thing where someone dislikes somebody or have a time where they're upset at a friend, but when you have someone you're cool with say to keep away from a person, then the situation is getting way out of hand! I'm not perfect, I had times where I added to the drama, and I regret it, but what's done is done. In a perfect world, everyone would get along. And what makes it so bad with this particular circle of friends, everyone was cool with each other at different points and were working together making music. So this leads to another goal for '07: work with (musical) friends when they are actually ready (have some single-worthy songs), and work with people who are already making moves (i.e. performing & pushing cd's). As much as I want to help my friends with their musical efforts, I've just about had it for now. It's time to expand my horizons and move on to network with others who are really looking for help with marketing their songs.

So 2007, like with all the new years of the past , is a time to start again with a clean slate. Time to get it crackin! Happy 2007!
