Happy Gregorian Calendar New Years!
Happy Lunar New Years as well!

This year we welcome the year of the boar… and in Japan.. they’re so excited about the year of the boar that they can’t wait for the lunar new year’s… so it’s welcomed in on January 1st instead.

some of my favourite moments, and places….

Starting with Ringing in the Last New Year’s with Marian, Lisa, May, Mavis, Jeremy, Yindar, etc….
of course only a very small group of us actually made it to midnight…

Did you make your New Year’s Resolutions?
After reading Craig’s New Year’s Blog Entry and Matt’s blog to go with it… I feel more motivated to set more goals and set some action plans to accomplish them this year…

2007 is our year of rebirth… it’s time to fire it up…
