Christmas/Holidays

So, first christmas in a new city, new side of the country, and an amazing mate..
First off, it gets DAMN COLD HERE. -45c one day last week, plus a bit of windchill. for you americanites thats -49f.
So far it hasnt seemed very christmass-y due to stress, work, plans being up in the air.. but now stress is subsiding, i have my weekend off from work, and plans are final. Not to mention theres finally a tree! going to try to get it set up today.
In comparison to last christmas, i have to say its not quite as nice. I do miss my friends back in St. John's .. and even my old roomie. They made last christmas what it was... This year having only been here a year, and not having made many friends yet, I kind of have to work a little harder to get an awesome Christmas.
Though me and Chris have made some awesome friends, its still not the guys from back home, maybe with time :P
So yea, christmas for me isnt so much about gifts, or religion, its about spending time with the people you hold close to you. The gifts are awesome though :P no comment on religion's play in christmas as it doesnt have one for me.
Hmm what else.. New years resolution? i want to be all geeky and say 1440x900 or something like that, but a) thats my current resolution, and b) just a little too nerdy for me lately
This year i think i have a real resolution to make
Become less stressed, and care less about things out of my control
extra add-on resolutions:
Relax more but take on more decisions instead of pushing them off onto my mate
Show my mate how much i love him even more <3
Other than that, i think theres not much to update. as per my disclaimer, i tend to neglect updating on this, but im always on here.
Been doing good, work seems to be screwing a few of us over a bit and i hope that stops after christmas. Myself i'm still being tossed from one store to another, but now they want to keep me at city centre, which i dont like much but i think it's a step towards management. the instant i find out they have no intentions of this, they will know how pissed i am.
I'll try to update again before the end of 2009, and what a crazy year it has been
