I'm not one for making New Year's Resolutions because like many the chances of me following through on these promises is virtually nil.  But as a new year begins I do have one resolution that I am determined to keep.  For a variety of reasons I have lost contact with my friends from school.  Whether the cause was work, my girlfriend or simply pure lazyness I have lost touch the people whom I had formed friendships some of which are go back 15 years.  Whenever we meet up it seems that the conversation picks up exactly where it left off and we promise to meet more often but it never happens.  But this year I want to make sure the same pattern isn't repeated.  So I will make 2007 the year where I plan to renew my old friendships.
