First post of the year, two weeks into 2012. Wonderful snow day here in chicago! The snow looks like small, glittering crystals. Who cares if it takes more than half the time to get home. (Photo by isela09)

Arcade Fire - Wake Up

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

Another year over and  new one is about to begin.  Well tonight we say goodbye to 2011 and say hello to 2012.  For this New Year, I will strive to be more courageous, take more risks, and basically LIVE LIFE!  So New Year! I am not afraid of you and what you will bring. Even though the path is uncertain and unclear, I will go down fighting.  I sense change coming and I am not afraid, I refuse to be afraid! 

2012! BRING IT ON BITCH!
