Happy New Year!

As this new year started, I can already look forward to a better year! Honestly, as much as 2007 was nice, it was definitely intensive. Looking back, I learned a lot about myself and the world through harsh experiences and personal psychological growth. Would that be called self improvement? But in between it all, I realized I forgot a lot about myself and my past. The other day, I finally picked off all the piled junk around my piano to finally play some songs. Something that I haven't done in years, literally. It was a great feeling to be able to play the songs I once enjoyed (mainly anime songs haha and Anastasia).

It was also a great feeling to know how to exactly answer the question: What's my biggest dream? My biggest dream is to continue on with my studies in international relations and space policy in order to one day enter into a career where I can play the role of a diplomat/ambassador for the United States that works on ways to further international space cooperation between countries.

As this has once been my dream, it has never gone so far as to finally take a shape where I can understand it as clearly as I do now. Just the past 2 years, I've been asking professors where I can assume such a role, with no real answers or direction. But finally, I have found the group of people that know this area best, and I can only continue to work hard to pursue my dream. The stars have seriously aligned together where I can walk on these rocks to cross the river towards my goal. In the past I've been always shy to ask such questions as people seriously don't know what I'm talking about, but I'm looking forward to it, since I am confident this will continue be a very important subject in the future.

There's this new wave of energy that I can feel revived in my vision. Lately when I look up in the sky, I'm so happy to just see the bright stars (and satellites) up there. Just seeing them makes me smile. Haha I'm just easily amused.

Since I have all this energy, I decided that perhaps my new years resolution is to exercise! I hope I'll be able to work hard and continue to pursue my dreams! Yay! I hope I get to go to Italy and hop around Europe this summer!
