Happy New Year, from your friend Serpentor! [Picture Removed]
CO-BRA-LA-LA-LA! Haha, okay sike, it’s still your old pal ??????????!!
What are your plans for the new year? Will you sit at home playing games or watching tv (as I did for many many years), will you laugh and hug your closest friends, or will you grab a complete stranger and smooch away? I’ll be at Penn’s Landing most likely, so wave if you see me! I will be extra nice because of the holiday.
In all seriousness, I pray that you all have a safe year ahead of you, and that you recieve just what you deserve in life (as long as it does not contradict my first wish). As for me, I will continue to cherish my beloved friends and my greatest love, one Miss Lorangen.
New Year’s Eve and the hours that follow is a time of reflection. It is an end and a beginning. As we progress into this next year, please allow me to share some of the lessons I have come to know and live by in life. I cannot guarantee that your life will be bettered by them, nor can I swear by their effectiveness. I do not always abide by these, but I usually try. All I can claim is that they have helped me live and be the man I am.
