Happy New Years, Planet Earth!

Well, it is now officially 2012, according to the Gregorian calendar.

I returned from a generally good night of partying at around 10 AM this morning, only to fall asleep until 1 in the afternoon because of exhaustion due, in the most part, to sleeping on a hardwood floor in a friends bedroom with my hungover girlfriend and loud friends who didn't get to sleep until 4 or 5 in the morning, and who all decided to wake up en masse only a few hours later at around 8:30.

Either way, we rung in the New Years with an appropriate amount of beer, vodka, champagne, and wine, as well as loud music, explicitly dirty jokes, and "I love you's."
The ringing in my ears has yet to subside, however, and the alcohol as well as the music probably made it worse as it became loud to the point of my becoming miserable over it when I made an attempt at sleeping without the assistance of ambient music and sounds to properly lull me into the dream world. My lymph node, which is no longer swollen but is still aching and continues to be worrisome as well as uncomfortable, was also bothering me last night, and was also probably exasperated by alcohol.

I have a doctors appointment on the 3rd, however, so hopefully that gives me some proper answers as to what it is, and what I can do about it.

Coming home has been great, and seeing everyone I love has been ever greater. I am still considering what I mentioned in the previous post (such as potentially moving back), but I've decided to give the Lower Mainland at least a couple more months to prove itself a worthy home before I take such a large step (whether it's forward or backwards, I have yet to decide). I do hope my seemingly perpetually being ill subsides soon, and I can return to living life without any phantom sounds in my ears, and without the accompanying anxiety prolonged illness brings. However significant my problems may be to me, I doubt the world really enjoys when I grovel on about them, so I'll stop now before my mind decides to rant in order to calm itself.

According to 2 yearly astrology books I've flipped through in different book and superstores, 2012 is going to be a very good year for me, with only some minor issues along the way. In this case, let's hope astrology has some reasonable traction (not that 2011 was a bad year! Although it did have its moments, as every year inevitably does).

However, I've got some plans to make with some friends of mine, as well as some time to spend with my family, so peace out blue planet, and have a very happy New Year.

The world is meaningless,

there is no God or gods, there are no morals, the universe is not moving inexorably towards any higher purpose.
All meaning is man-made, so make your own, and make it well.
Do not treat life as a way to pass the time until you die.
Do not try to "find yourself", you must make yourself.
Choose what you want to find meaningful and live, create, love, hate, cry, destroy, fight and die for it.
Do not let your life and your values and your actions slip easily into any mold, other that that which you create for yourself, and say with conviction, "This is who I make myself".
Do not give in to hope.
Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which you imbue it.
Whatever you do, do it for its own sake.
When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!".
Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.
The world may be empty of meaning, but it is a blank canvas on which to paint meanings of your own.
Live deliberately. You are free.
