A new beginning. I am not sure if I feel any different yet. Slightly more motivated I guess, I cleaned my room today, and I have been eating slightly healthier. Louie went for a big walk with me this morning, despite the bitter temperatures and winds. I cannot believe that the next semester is upon me! I have already checked out my syllabus for my news writing course and it looks like Kyle and I are in for a lot of work. I am really happy to be taking a class with Kyle again, it will most likely be the last one we'll take together, but it should be interesting to say the least.
My New New Year's eve was pretty laid back. Kyle and I watched some movies and had some B nector wine (yummy meade that is made in the mitten) that we mixed with a dry ale and became pretty buzzed. We were lame and stayed in this year, but Kyle didn't even get out of work until late so we decided to be hermits. We have kind-of been hermits all week, and it looks like most of my semester will be that way.
It is kind of strange but to me, there is something very attractive about the dead of winter, after the romance and craziness of the holidays.There is something about being outside in the cold, when the sky is all grey and the trees are bald, that is really depressing, but at the same time kind of wonderful. It makes me really appreciate the little things. It's cold, so I see people less, but those two pints of ale with friends is more rewarding once every two weeks than everyday after work in the summer. I feel like I am alone more, so I explore my mind a little more, I feel that I become more creative. I feel like I am rewarded with the comfort of my favorite pajamas and hot stew when I come in from outside. The hot chocolate tastes better after ice-skating for hours. Everything seems to slow down for a few months, and to me it is kind of nice.
