Robbed.

After having had my car for over two months, I find out that I have had satellite radio all along.  I received a letter today from Sirius and Volkswagen thanking me for my business.  Included in the letter was a short brochure and a channel guide.  I feel robbed... I have been listening to regular radio like a sucker.

As you probably know, the new year is only a few days away.  I have been thinking about my goals for 2011 and some New Year's resolution.  The first thing I decided to do for 2011 is to work on being less competitive.  I realized I needed to work on this after Anjuli told me I had yelled at her while playing Fat Princess.  I still feel guilty even though I do not remember doing it.  It would be nice to be able to control my emotions better.  I think my competitiveness is not necessarily a crutch but I do think it could be maintained better.  I do not want to get mad over a video game...

Second thing I would like to work on is my image.  By that I mean working on how I present myself on a regular basis, especially when meeting new people.  It generally takes me a while to open up to people for reasons I cannot really explain.  Hopefully by the end of the year I will be able to be myself all the time without fear of being stigmatized.

Here are some others in brief:

1. Get better at chess
2. More ink (possibly in February)
3. Finally find a hairstyle that suits me
4. Drop to less than 12% body fat
5. Learn how to ice skate
6. Read more books

Earlier this week my sister asked me a very interesting question that I have been thinking about for a few days.  If you were to have any song as your entrance music what would it be?  As in, every time you walk into a room it would play for everyone to hear.  My sister picked Hey, Soul Sister by Train because she said it would be like saying hi to everyone without actually having said it.  Of course, I would pick something more dramatic.  It has been very difficult coming up with something that epic.  Initially I was thinking Thunderstruck but it just does not have the sound I would expect of myself.  Think about it.  Anjuli do not pick Like a G6.

Since I told myself I would be sleeping early I will stop here. More on life next time!

Until next time,

The San Jose Sharks have been shut out five times this season in 38 games.  Before that, the Sharks had only been shut out five times in 270 games.  What does that tell you?  The Sharks need better goaltending (Nabby) and better defense.  Sad..
