“May all your troubles last as long as your New Year’s resolutions.”
Joey Adams
Kitty cats, I cannot speak for you, but I myself have never been one to make New Year’s Resolutions for the sheer fact that I worry that I will end up disappointed at the end of the year should I be unable to keep them, or do not achieve them over the 365 day period in which they are put into place. Therefore, the only thing I resolve to do over the course of the next year is to step out of the box. Maria Robinson once said
“Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” Over the next 52-weeks I plan on holding fast to these words. To truly carpe diem! That said; I leave you with a playlist of some of my favorite songs (of the moment!) to help you ring in the New Year right!
♥Falling in Love At a Coffee Shop - Landon Pigg
♥Vanilla Twilight - Owl City
♥Any Fun - Coconut Records
♥Bad Romance - Lady Gaga
♥Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters - Elton John
♥Never Forget You - Noisettes
♥Tik Tok - Ke$ha
♥Naïve - The Kooks
♥Empire State of Mind (Part II) - Alicia Keys
♥We’re Going to Be Friends - The White Stripes “We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year’s Day.”

ReplyDeleteHappy 2010 to you, lovely lady!!

I'm not a resolution maker, but always start the year saying that I'm going to have as much fun as possible. Thats a great goal to have.
ReplyDeleteHope you had an amazing NYE and hope you have a fabulous 2010!!
yes, i gave up on resolutions long ago. the fact that it's a new year just doesn't provide much extra motivation for me, i guess.
ReplyDeletei love owl city, and your whole playlist actually :)
Happy New Year, Erika! I hope 2010 is absolutely fabulous for you!
ReplyDeleteLove your playlist! :)
Fabulous playlist! That Ke$ha song is very catchy and perfect for the new year. Happy New Year dear!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not making any resolutions this year either! I like your carpe diem one, though. I need to seize the day more often!
ReplyDeletehappy new years!! and i love the song tik tok. :D
ReplyDeletehappy new year erika!!! and i'm in love with landon pigg's song, it defined so many 2009 moments for me :) and i can't help but sing along to tik tok, it's my guilty pleasure.
ReplyDeleteI love that picture - it used to be my desktop picture :)
ReplyDeleteAnd, I'm such a fail with New Years resolutions. I gave up years ago - I can never keep up with them. Besides, you make goals any time in the year! Doesn't have to be on the very first day of the year.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
