Self Obsessed

I always wonder if I'm self obsessed. Certainly the fact that on this blog I haven't posted anything but pictures of my face in over a month point to the fact that yes, I am obsessed with myself. Certainly when someone says 'self obsessed' a person thinks "in love with themselves" or "only thinks about themselves", anything along those lines. I however admit to being obsessed with myself as a person in a different way.
I think about my self all the time. I think about what I've done in the past, how could that have shaped the future I'm in now? How did that one day after Christmas make me the person that I don't like to look at?
I think about how every little word I say can affect the people around me. I don't mean this as in I speak profoundly and people should treat me as if I was Winston Churchill. I mean that if my mother asks me if I like her new phone and I say "It makes no difference, I don't care", she could take it as I don't love her.
Then that get s me to thinking, "Do I love my mother/father'? I have all this angry built up inside of me towards them. There's no reason to be mad at them, they lived their lives now I need to live mine.
But then I think, "Am I really living my life, or walking through it like a dark silhouette"? All I do is work and sleep. I don't interact with people, I don't make friends. I don't have in-depth conversations with people I just met and find so many coincidences with our lives that we come to find out after 2 hours of talking that we were just made to be friends.
And when I post these pictures of myself, most of the time I don't like them. I know I'm not ugly, nor am I pretty. But sometimes when you take a picture (like all the time) it looks to be at a horrible angle and you have to take five more to get one that satisfies you. I wonder how have I had this face for almost twenty years and I still don't know how to make it look good?

So yes I am self obsessed. I self analyze all the time. Think about my mistakes and little moments in the past that shaped who I am today. Then I think of little moments that I could make happen today, that could somehow shape a better me. So that maybe, just maybe, in five years I might like the person I have become.

The Holidays

I hate holidays, I didn't enjoy Christmas, and New Years is a waste of time too. But I like resolutions that are attainable and so it's time I make a resolution list I guess.
1. I hope that I get a completely new life and as of 2013 and I wake up a new person, in a new house, with a new family, and a new head full of memories.
I'm just wishing the impossible but really, I want next year to be full of changes and I hope these goals I'm about to set I can reach. I feel like I always fall short of what I try to do. This year I want to be independent and headstrong; I don't want anything to get in my way. So here's the real list:

1. Enroll in some kind of classes for the summer semester.
2. Find a new home on our own (me & Hachi) by the end of this year but preferably, by my 20th birthday
3. Find out exactly where Josh's and mine relationship is going.
4. Be more positive and affectionate.
5. Make some friends; I'm sick of being alone.
