neverwhere: (Neverwhere)
[personal profile] neverwhere
Last year, I was standing above the Thames, facing the Houses of Parliament, and cheered with thousands of other people as Big Ben rang in the start of the new year.

This year, I sat on my bed (the only other piece of furniture in my miserably untidy flat apart from the computer desk), holding a bottle of root beer and watching other people having fun on t.v, and when the big ball dropped in Times Square to signal the start of 2004...I just sat there, sobbing pathetically.

That's how I greeted the new year. As a pathetic, lonely failure.

Please don't let me end the year the same way.

You are NOT a failure. One of the best things about new year is you can let go of all the shit of the past year and make a fresh start.

I'm sorry you had to be introduced to me this way. I'm not normally so unhappy, mostly I'm very cheerful and full of bouncey glee.

I just really hate where I am (both physically and mentally) at the moment, so I am having occasional days of meloncoly...Thankfully, they don't last. At least, usually they don't.

I definitely want to make a fresh start this year. It has to get better than this.

Hey, be as melancholy as you need to be, it'd be very strange if you were always happy. You sound like you have the drive to improve your life, which I personally find very admirable.
