Happy New Years Eve! I can't believe that 2005 is almost over.

2005 was a year of change, a year of disaters, a year of self doubt and hope. I graduated from college. The old blueberi was retired and a new blueberi was found. I got a job and was later told they didn't want to pay be anymore, so I had to quit.

But beyond my personal life. Things have also changed. New Orleans has ben washed away. A place I hoped to visit someday, but it may be years before I can visit the city. I wished I could help, but my poor college student budget doesn't allow it.

Then there is all the political problems and the slowing economy isn't helping. Somedays it feels as though maybe America is losing its position in the world. I once never thought about how my country was, but it seems that we are losing hold. That we may not be the land of opportunity anymore. I don't know.

I don't want to feel this way. I know we have it good. But layoffs worry me. Why can't companies do their figures right? Why are so many people in debt? Is is cause of the national debt? I don't know. I just want to be able to get a job and pay back what I borrowed. I wish life wasn't so much about money.

Oh yeah, I've been home for a while now. I managed to gain 2 lbs over my time here. I need to get back on track. Damn how could I let myself do that.
