    Thinking of my "first" of the new year, does making everything a little more meaningful. Yeah, I feel bad because i had my first argument with my cousin about an hour into the year(not a good start really).

    I think my first this year was playing with my dad's new PS3
    That was a nice start! xD
    Hope everyone has a good New Year.

    @ Erin:

    I was out there between Dec. 15 - Jan. 8th. What sucked though was that I lost my hat while hiking Diamond Head. It was kinda windy and my hat blew off when I was taking a picture for these people. The hike turned out horrible anyways because I had a big breakfast over at Big City Diners (Bad idea before a hike).
