I don't like Derek's resolution. His blogs may be short, but they all have some life to them. It's funny because I think Derek can go on forever about certain topics, but I believe he's just too lazy to write about them...or short on time...which is always the case with all of us isn't it?

I will continue, though late to say thanks to the Horiuchi clan for letting us raid and parade around in your house. I had a great time and all of the food was excellent. Couldn't think of a better way to spend the holidays.

Halo kicked some serious ass, I hope we play more.

Web site got updated, one new section for us Pookiers, even the ones that don't blog as much. I have a lot more pictures to put up and I will do that hopefully soon.

I can't believe I'm turning the big 2 - 4. I'm about a little past the quarter mark for my life. 25 is going to be the true sign that I'm older. With being older I really want to try and finally become responsible. This means not staying up so late on week nights so that I can be well rested for work, this means saving up my money and truly saving. Not being stupid with it. Only buy things that are truly necessary. I would like to buy a house sometime, so that means I really need to save up. After talking with a friend, I got a ballpark where I need to be at and I'm no where close boys. I truthfully can say that I am not very mature. I might have the worst discipline out of any of us in spending money and I want to get out of that rut. So I am not focused on paying off my credit card debts and move into saving territory. I hope in a couple years a house could be on the way. That's my major New Years Resolution - grow up.

I probably will act the same, but behind the scenes I will try and plan for my future more and try to be smarter in the any actions that I take. If any of you want to remind me in certain situations and help me with my goal, I would appreciate it. Monetarily I don't want to be a tight wad, but I also don't want to be free spending either. Gotta learn discipline.

Also another resolution is to become a little more healthy in my eating habits...not eating out as much...exercising regularly, this will start after my b-day, so I have in theory have a couple days of freedom left =).

Alright, well that's my blog for today. Hope everyone is well and it was awesome seeing you guys!
