I end most thoughts of the day during the nighttime toothbrushing routine.  I think about all kinds of randomness as I stand brushing at the bathroom sink.  Tonight, I thought about why I'm taking (or wasting?) time by coming back to Xanga...especially since 90%+ of my readers have left for a new shindig at Facebook/Wordpress//Livejournal/Blogspot/Twitter.  This question poses an analogy of home...

Xanga is like home to me.  Coming back here is like coming home.  It's my own space and it just feels right.

It's been carefully decorated and lived in.  Sure it's disorganized, dusty, and could use some remodeling, but you can't deny its character and history.  I hate boxing up and moving my stuff because it's tedious.  Plus, I paid a lot of money for this place (the only time I'd ever pay for witing space!) so I best make the best of it.  When you pay for your own place, you try to maintain it.  I bought my first home this past year so I understand what it's like to set down roots.  There have been several other blogs before Xanga but this is the longest blog I've kept.  Xanga's where I really rooted down down and settled in...why move?  Unless they demolish this place...

As for the writing, well, it's mainly for me.  I don't expect many people to read what I have to say...though if you come by here, please leave a footprint so I won't feel like I'm talking to myself all the time (that's what insane people do).  I've left plenty of ramblings throughout this blogosphere which I hope won't come back to bite me one day when I become famous or successful.   Writing is therapeutic in many ways.  I'm not sure if it's best done via a weblog where your privacy may be vulnerable if you're worried about that sort of thing.  Grammar is often blotched and thoughts are incomplete.  Heck, I never intended to write a novel here.  So here continues the randomness in the life of an almost-30 (gasp!) entrepreneur trying to make her mark in the world...

Only here do you get to see the quirky, non-business, irrelevant, carefree side of me.  Consider yourself a lucky man/woman. 

Hello there!

It's been over a year since I set foot back on Xanga and it honestly felt a lot longer than it really was.  What can I say...life happened?  Exciting life!  From time to time I would consider returning here to jot my thoughts down then somehow I just let thoughts pass by in order to move on to the next part of my day.  Sometimes I regret letting those (sometimes ingenious) thoughts slip by but life just cannot be bothered.  Sometimes life must be lived without narration or reminiscing so that we don't have a chance to second guess our immediate choices.

Lots have happened in the past year and I can't believe 2011 is finally here.  I better make use of my Lifetime Membership here and write something awe-inspiring once in awhile, yeah?

My first thought for 2011 is SCREW THE NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS and DO IT ALL! (whatever it is)  This year, I don't have a focus on what I want to achieve.  I just want to give my best on everything that's coming my way.  For sure, there will be a lot coming my way (that'll have to be another blog post).  In prior years I would have a detailed list of things I want to focus on but would get disappointed toward the year's end because I had not achieved all I'd written down.  In retrospect, I'd been blessed with some other amazing opportunities and experiences that made delaying those unachieved items a good choice.  Life is all about choices.  You get some, you lose some.  All in all, I got a lot more than I lost.  That's why this year I'm going to take everything in stride and give it my all.  Why not?

We have a packed New Years Day agenda and have three parties to attend.  Trying to do it all...
