On repeat

오늘은 조금 돌아가도 지하철 말고서 버스를 타고
창밖에 비친 멍한 얼굴 귓가엔 멜로디 어둑한 저녁
한 정거장 일찍이 버스에서 내리고서
타박 발걸음 내디며 조용한 밤 산책

날씨가 많이 쌀쌀해졌구나
오늘 하늘에 별이 참 많구나
혼자라는 생각이 안드는 건 이상하지

내일은 어디로 가볼까 또 지각하면은 안되는데
집으로 올라가는 언덕 가까워 질 수록 한 템포 다운
저녁거릴 걱정하다 내 일거리 걱정하다
조금 내 사랑 걱정하다 내 인생 걱정하다

나도 모르게 웃음이 번져와 아무 일도 없는 소소한 일상
새삼 말하기도 민망하지만 이대로 좋구나

Textbook worthy



Hope over fear.
Unity of purpose over conflict and discord.

feliz ano nuevo.



Typical new year's resolutions that never get accomplished:

1. Lose 10 pounds
2. Don't miss church
3. Study harder
4. No regrets

Reasonable and realistic resolutions for this year:

1. Be more cultured, although I'm not even sure if this is a word. I mean, read more, watch more, experience more, travel more, lalala. I went my first NBA game last Friday, so I'm good to go on this.
2. Record more. pictures, videos, journals..
3. Buy more shoes.
4. Clean more.
5. Move out of Costa Verde and get a single room (under reasonable budget to achieve #3)
6. Stop being so awkward around new people.

We'll see what happens to these after a year. I bought myself a planner today too. Ohmagaa doesn't my 2009 sound so organized already?
