New year, new you… we've heard it all before. Who says you need to be new? Just because the date on the calendar has changed it doesn't mean the person you were on the 31st December was riddled with fundamental flaws. Sure, we could go with the trend and vow to get skinnier, get less drunk, spend less money on mildly pornographic horror films… but why? Just because it's January doesn't mean we've stopped loving cheese and wine and half-naked people getting chainsawed.
Topping the list of the depressingly boring resolutions for 2013 are quitting smoking, saving money, joining some mythical land know as 'gym'… all terribly sensible. Sensible yes, but soul-crushingly dull. Looking back over our past resolutions the NamaKo team have realised that there's much more value in embracing these so called 'flaws'. It's our flaws that make us real, make us interesting! Imagine a world of pension-saving, lettuce-eating, non-smoking, gym-dwellers; do you think anything beautiful or passionate can come from something so sterile?
2013. It's just another day, we are still the same people. If you must change something, change what's around you. Change your environment, bring it to life! We at NamaKo have resolved to embrace our 'flaws' and use them to our advantage. And we will do so sitting on our roof drinking rum and smoking. Break out against the resolutionists… join the revolutionists. This is the year of you, just like last year.
