It wouldn't be New Year's if I didn't have regrets

Then again, to save myself the trouble of introducing my deepest regrets this year, I have another fine quotation haunting my mind - "Life is too short to regret anything". We are always haunted and haunting. This saying belongs to Chuck Palahniuk, an author whom I have come to adore recently. At this point I can't possibly not mention Edith Piaf and her "Non, rien de rien." No, I don't regret a thing. I'm a bit peculiar but I cannot end this paragraph without Wilde's "Life is too important to be taken seriously". There, I feel much better.
I have read a lot in the past few days. At the moment I'm entertaining myself with "The catcher in the rye". I finished rereading "The picture of Dorian Gray", I also read "Choke" and started with "Lullaby". The last two are Palahniuk's masterpieces. I recommend them to anyone who can read English or come to think of it, I recommend them to anyone who understands the basic swear words.
Some of Salinger's thoughts are my thoughts. I'm confident enough to say they were my thoughts before I read the damn book. For example: I act a lot too young for my age on the count of I just get bored as hell too often. Another fine thought: Around corny people I start acting corny because they deserve it. Yet another: People never believe anything.
This is the perfect time to do a full heart analyzes on the year I have had. Who am I kidding? Not going to happen. I'm far too lazy and far too introverted to write anything down. Plus, I'm madly in love with myself. When people are in love, they often don't think. Not thinking is against my principles.. but so what? It's a rhetorical question, don't answer it.
This is the part I make my New Year's promise. I don't want to give myself a too difficult task (I can hardly keep up with my homework) - I will meet even more interesting people and enjoy life. It might sound too cheesy, but I have the simplest taste - I'm only satisfied with the best.
Today I was hoping to save a boy's world before bedtime but nothing of this kind happened. Of course it makes me sad. It also makes me want to become a doctor even more.
I have far too many thoughts to make a logical post. My bad.
I love talking to people. Just talking. I hate talking to phony people. It's awe-stuck to talk to people who are my "heroes". The funny thing is that they have no clue whatsoever that I kind of worship them every now and then.
Next year I promise to become more weird. I love acting weird and different from the mass. I do it all for my self-amusement really. I love enigmatic people. I will become one.
Another thing I have come to understand is the power of thought. I believe my dreams tell me more then I give them credit for. I have all the proof in the world. If it by any chance interests you, give me a call or something.
I don't have to be a victim of faith. I can and will create my own faith, reality, call it whatever you want. I don't care. I can have anything I want.
I'll end this post with Oscar: "It is better to be beautiful than to be good. But it is better to be good than to be ugly."
Chew over that for a while.

A long walk home

Me? I was almost as drunk as myself.
