I never knew the words to the song but I think it’s such an epic thing to sing as you welcome the new year in. I don’t like to think that the new year is special…it’s just an easily identifiable benchmark of what you’ve done over the year. Last year I made a few promises to myself on a very insignificant day. I’m sad to say that I haven’t learnt how to skate backwards, although I do know how to play 2 songs on the guitar and with that I’ve reached perfection…I have no need for resolutions. (HAH!) I think I’ll come up with them on an equally insignificant day.
I think I’ll go sing auld lang syne at family now.

Hahahaha I love your commitment to blogging! Mostly because it means you have to use the internet which means I get to know what you’re doing in life even though you’re so far away. (But you’re so… farrrrrr awayyyy,
Doesn’t anybody stay in one place anymoreee,
It would be so fine to see your face at my door But you’re so farrrrr awayyyyy)
I could serenade you at this point, but I won’t.
In any case, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Good God, I miss you! AND… I don’t know the words to Auld Lang Syne either!! I just mumble along every New Year’s and speak up when the Auld Lang Syne part is so it looks like I do!
I think we should do it together and back each other up!
