i am hoping i could transfer out to an university this year. So far i have a gpa of 3.45 so if i keep it up and take enough classes/credits for the transfer requirement i could do it.

Now anime-wise, i am hoping to watch a different variety of anime. Afterwards, collect from those series if i like em. :)

New year is special for us, too. With lots of fireworks (but not this year since husband isn't home). That's how I grew up in Germany. ^_^

The food tradition I grew up with is to eat Sauerkraut, potatoes and kassler (which I believe is here in the US is called smoked pork). But due to husbands tradition I also cook black eye peas and collard greens for New Years. Lots of veggies. ^_^

I will cook all the above foods, but New Years wont be same since my husband isn't here to celebrate with us this year. :(

I still keep up the food tradition on new years day and will also have a glass of champagne at midnight

I'll be spending the day burning DVD copies of a wedding, even though it can't be mailed until Wednesday. I'll probably start loading a new job on New Year's day. I plan to make Black-eyed peas and ham with rice tomight but the rice is going to be Basmati (It's my favorite!) Don't know if I'll bother to make it 'til midnight. This has been a difficult year for us here, so I think I just want it to be over.

I'm going to spend the day today and tomorrow doing housework and sewing. And maybe watching some anime ;) and playing with dolls with the kiddos.

Like Vapalla, I'm delighted that this year is almost over. Many good things happened, but it was very difficult in other ways. I want a fresh start.

My plans for the coming year include getting more exercise and trying to finally get this body back into something like a decent operating condition. That will improve everything else ;)

And while I'm here, I want to wish everyone here the best. You're all very, very special to me.

On New Years Day I will work in the morning. Then I will come home and watch the USC-Michigan game on TV. :)

I'll be doing...nothing. Probably stay up, watch the ball drop on TV, drink some champagne with my relatives. Nothing exciting, since I'm on vacation.
