2004-12-25 : Happy Holidays Everyone!!!!
Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!

Hey guys…I just wanted to drop in real quick to send you all my very warmest greetings for the holiday! I know I’m so bad at keeping this diary up-dated, and i apologize for that. There’s just not enough time in a day, or week, or month…! ;) You guys have been keeping me busy, having me travelling all over the world to promote my music, and I am for ever grateful for that. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being responsible for making 2004 the best year of my life!!! I hope the past year has been an amazing one for you as well…

I am at my parents now. I celebrated X-mas together with mom, dad, my brother and grandma and it’s been great to spend some quality time with them. I can’t even remember when I had a chance to see grandma last time, so I am really glad she could make it here. Spending time with the family was the best Christmas gift this year…that and a new pair of snow-goggles! ;) Since time off is a luxury I don’t get a lot of these days, I am trying to make the most of my limited time, always compeeting with the clock. Now I just finished packing and in a couple of hours I will be on my way on a last minute trip to the Austrian alps!!! Wheheeeeee!!! I’ve been dying to go snowboarding for so long, so I am totally excited to go. At one point it looked pretty hopeless as all trips were booked, but turned out I got lucky in the end! Whohoo! =D

So, since I’ll be on the road the next week, and also will be away for New Years, I want to wish you all a great HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! =D I hope that 2005 will bring you all lots of wonderful things, and I also REALLY hope that we will get a chance to see each other more then. The chances are good since I finally will start doing some more touring in 2005. Wheee!!! I can’t wait, I’ve been looking forward to this so long!
I also just started working on writing some new material for the next album, and that is already a lot of fun for me…I love writing…

Ok you guys, I really have to get going, I have to get some work done before I catch my train… Once again, Thank you so much for making this such a fantastic year…your support is unvaluable… And please, please, please keep writing in the guestbook, I read it frequently and your words are so encouraging and inspiring! =) You guys rock!

All the best to you guys, enjoy the holidays and take good care of each other.

Warm hugs,

Ana
