New Sneer's Resolution

It's a new what? What? Year?  A new year, you say?  What makes it new?  There is nothing new to me.  I haven't shed my skin like a snake, revealing a clean, raw layer of myself all fresh and pristine.  No.  I still have to wipe off the rim on most mornings. It is the same.  If you want a change this year you have to do things drastically.

Live in moderation as there is a key to adequacy.  If you really appreciate the simple details that you have in your life - those morsels of comfort bestowed upon you by the quality your life holds - then when something extravagant arises you will be able to truly appreciate it.  Try not to live in the shadow of someone that seems to be living a greater life than yourself, it can turn you bitter  Advice is not really my strong point as I don't feel I have my own life in check.  My winter holiday has mainly been in recluse.

I really hope that Britain isn't exposed to some God-awful whirlwind craze this year.  I hope that we don't just jump on some train of fashion, but shoot any trend-phrases like 'reem' dead in the water.  This will lead to a better quality of life.  Trash the trash and absorb the brilliance.  People should find fame for good reasons not for numbing the mind of couch-dwelling muppets.  The sad thing is that is this kind of person that holds consumer power in this country; buying into the new thang with a nice picture and  '#yolo'.  Yeah, you only live once, so why waste your time on Jersey Shore and its 7 British spin-offs.  If you want to watch this 'docu-tainment' (dare I call it that) series, just go to your local town centre and watch the goings-on of the local yout'.  If, after doing this, you aren't overwhelmed with depression and the desire to turn society on its head and gut it like a fish, then just go to Starbucks and buy a moco-choco-strawberry sprinkle gateau latte because chances are, that is all you can do.

Personally, my only aims for the year are to finish my book and record my music.  Potentially both of these could be done in the first quarter of the year.  Then what?  To be a better me?  It is difficult for me to define myself so I have no real grasp on this kind of thing.  I believe I am within the state of Moratorium, which I find comforting. Uncertainty is interesting.

All in all, the only thing we have to look forward to is the next variety  of Gangnam fever to give our hatred and adulation a new form.  Here's to 2014; another nothing year.
