Well, 2010 and already broken so many new year's resolutions!
The snow is piling up by the foot; it’s depressing, being stuck inside for several weeks because of the fun stuff that seemed so cool when it first arrived and is now such an annoyance! My sister and I decided to trek down to the local shop for supplies (gah! what a palaver), it was chaos. Feeling like a walking snowman, trying not to slip on the half-melted slush and walking past mountains of snow left by the snowploughs….it was hard to tell whether or not there was a car underneath (in one case there was!).
And just when you think you’re going to go stir crazy, there’s an old film on the tv…a rare occasion this year, all that seems to be on is utter crap! I think the best thing that was on was Spirited Away (a fab film form Hayao Miyazaki) and the final David Tennant Doctor Who…oh and the strange remake of Day of the Triffids. That was a weird one, Eddie Izzard being type casted as the eccentric/evil character.
Well, the hope for this year being better than the last is building up with questions. Will I keep my new year’s resolutions? Will I be able to do the things I want to this year? Will I be able to resist buying anymore manga when I walk into Waterstones? Personally I hope so but the chances are growing slim…well, fingers crossed!
Happy New Year!
