2009 will be a momentous year--new presidency under O, what's to come of the recent Gaza bombings, continual adjustment to the recession, and my graduating from UCLA in June and being thrust into the job market at the most inopportune time. There is no denying that times will be rough. But regardless of external events and circumstances, I recognize that change should materialize internally as well. There is still much room for personal growth and gaining of knowledge, and no better time to pledge for it than in the ongoing year. Trust me when I say that I was never one who deemed new years resolutions as practical nor effective, but I'll admit that I can work on implementing several changes in my own life. Only time will tell how I'll hold up though. Updates to be had. Good night and good luck.

I'll leave you with a quote from Alexander Wang, of which I wholeheartedly agree (down to the pineapple buns):
"Hmmm I haven't really made any new year's resolutions—I find that its better to surprise myself than to have expectations I can't keep. But I guess if I had to make one it would be to eat more organic…no junk food. Except for maybe pineapple buns!"
