Hello 2010! It’s a brand new year, and a brand new opportunity to start over fresh! I am really excited that it is a new year, 2009 seemed to wear out it’s welcome! There year had a mix of good times, but also plenty of times I would rather forget. I am not “depressed”, but there were plenty of times during 2009 that I wanted to just cave in. Reasons? Well, I don’t know where I am headed in my future, for one thing. I had to put down my dog Georgia over the summer, which I still take very hard. I had her since I was 5 years old, so losing her really left a vacant hole in my heart. I have become even more strained from my father (divorced parents), and his side of the family. I don’t think they even know how old I am anymore. I haven’t spoken to him for over a year now. I bought a car in the summer, and thought it would be a life changing experience finally owning my own car. Well, I was wrong. It has been such a disaster for me and my family, that we are trying to sell it already. I totally regret buying it. I am not sure if I even like where I am going to school anymore. I feel like I don’t belong there anymore. I got to the point where I stopped working out. I used to be a good athlete in my youth, but over time, personal injuries took me out of it. It’s hard for me to stay active because of this, and as a result I am out of shape. I know I should, but I just can’t get myself to do it anymore! I have been home for a few weeks, and all it’s done is make me wonder if I really like my town. I only keep in touch with a handful of friends from my highschool, most of my friends at home didn’t even go to my highschool. I have this “idea” of home, and I am not sure if it is still the same. When I look back at 2009, these things don’t make it seem all that glamorous.
That was the bad. However, there was plenty of good in 2009 as well! I have fallen in love with a beautiful girl named Jade, and I couldn’t be happier!!!! (BTW, if you got a chance, check out her blog!!! It’s great!) She is a really strong person, and has really taught me a lot. I am a lucky guy, she is amazing!!
There were plenty of great albums and films that I saw that made the year great. Catching the Arctic Monkeys drumstick at there show was beyond amazing. I am healthy with a family and friends, I should not be complaining. It is cliche, but sometimes by just looking at what you do have, rather than what you don’t have is enough to make you appreciate life! Things could have been a lot worse, so I have no right to complain.
Not only are we starting fresh with the year, this is a new decade. This is “our” decade. I am 19, and I am old enough for the first time to really appreciate life and see out this decade properly. Let’s do it right!
Finally, I want to talk about you guys. This blog really took off in 2009, and it has been a wild ride. I gotta thank you guys for sticking with me. I keep on blogging because you guys keep logging into your computers and visiting weallwantsomeone.org. I really hope you keep coming back, because I want to make this blog one of the best music blogs around! I am excited to see what the future holds for us!!!
Happy New Year!!!!!

keep it up will, the fact you are still pulling peeps in to read your blog and check out the music you introduce to us shows you are getting through your rough patch and living your life.
sounds a bit cheesy, but a friends facebook status today was
‘ failure is not falling down, its remaining where you have fallen’,
and i think its fairly apt for this. keep plowing on and great things will come your way.
happy new year, and here’s to a fantastic new decade for WAWSTSF..
