Happy 2006!

Last year at this time seems like sooo long ago. Spending Christmas with my family in Japan and New Years with my mom in Vietnam. With a long winter in rural Japan ahead of me and feeling like the day I'd move back to NY would NEVER come. Needless to say I predict that 2006 will be better than 2005. I already have a good headstart with moving back to NY, finding a great job, apartment and having fun with my new roommates and new life. This year also seems fairly significant. Maybe it's because it's the year I turn 25 (!). Not till June, but still, it's coming... So I feel like I have to accomplish something this year. Any ideas?

My sister and I went to London for 5 days after Christmas. We had a really good time. It felt good to travel again - I hadn't left NY since July, which felt weird since I traveled about once a month in Japan. It also felt great to go to Europe again after all the travel in Asia I did last year. Pics coming soon!
