My new year's resolution is to grow a beard like that.
I'm serious.
No, not really. I don't even have facial hair lol.
Every end of the year, I will do this meme that I found yeaaarrsss ago on LiveJournal. Yes, I had a LiveJournal account. Key word = had. Well, technically I still have it but since I started this blog I barely update it anymore lol. It's gathering dust and feels quite ignored, poor thing.

Holla if you feel that you've been down the same road
- Not Afraid, Eminem
And that's it for 2010, see you all again in 2011. :) Have a fantastic new year!!
