[ The message comes at around 9pm, hopefully before anyone's gone to bed. There's a light shuffling of sheets before you hear the voice. The voice speaking is distinctly feminine. Although she seems firm, there a small hint of questioning. ]

May I request more information about "New Years Resolutions"? I understand they are usually "self-betterment" requests for oneself, however, is this always the case? In addition, may I hear about resolutions you yourself have possessed in the past?

This may be a private topic, and I understand if you do not wish to reveal your intentions to me.

Wishes.

Others have dismissed the concept entirely as a half hearted oath broken by a lack of will power. In general, I have been given very vague definitions.

sorry for the delay u_u

Ohh, I see... well, I guess it does depend on who you're talking to. Some people can see it pretty differently, after all! Which I guess you've learned from the other people who replied to this, haha.

Me? Well... I don't ever really have any, actually! If I want to accomplish something, I'll just do it when it comes to my mind. I don't need to declare it in the beginning of the year to make it "special" or anything.

Then do you believe there is more meaning to resolution made in the beginning of the year as opposed to any other time?

[wristbands]

Not really! I mean, not for myself, at least. If someone else considers it more special, then more power to them!

[ There is a small, content, "Hm". ]

Then you and I are of the same opinion.

[wristbands]

Really? Well, glad to hear I'm not alone!

[caladvwlch]

I do not think we are alone at all.

Thank you.

[wristbands]

True... but it's better to have an actual confirmation from someone, you know?

And I don't think I've introduced myself yet! My name's Chie Satonaka. Nice to meetcha!
