2012 is over, and we’re now three days into 2013.
Has anyone else noticed that we seem to have gone to saying twenty-twelve instead of two thousand and twelve all of a sudden. Back in 2001, that used to bug me that we went from saying nineteen something to saying two something. But anyway…
The past year in review.
1) I got a boyfriend. I have had boyfriend for more than three months…
2) I have a functional working computer that can do all sorts of awesome stuff – except be portable. Which is fine.
3) I have done almost nothing school related except take geeky notes while watching Nova. And have done some Arthurian research for my book.
4) I finally wrote another chapter of my book. Progress?
5) Took a vaguely full time position at my job and now make less money than if I’d kept doing two jobs. No longer have to wake up at 5:30 am though.
6) I am now on the local USA Dance chapter’s board. And as of January 1st, I’m an executive member of that board.
7) I made semi’s in American Viennese Waltz at MIT Open in March.
I can’t think of anything else at the moment… I’m sure there’s been a few things that have happened, but those are the big ones, I think.
As for the upcoming year?
1) I want to audition for a local production of something. I can act, I swear. I’ve just always been very hesitant to audition for these things.
2) Keep doing what I am doing. Working where I do has been a lot of fun, even if it is also a lot of work.
3) Do my best by the standards of USA Dance, and in that vein – try to be more social and welcoming.
4) Apply for graduate school finally. The lack of classroom learning is beginning to make me miss collage. Also – most collages come with food courts.
5) Eat better. As in, three meals a day. Get up early, stretch, eat breakfast, start day, eat lunch, end day, eat dinner, relax. Sound like a plan? Maybe actually start trying it?
6) Read more books. Write more books. I’m already a good chunk of the way through Taliesin, so I can totally finish it and the rest of The Pendragon Cycle.
7) Quit reading Fan Fiction. I know it’s addicting. You’ve quit before, you can do it again. And you feel so much more accomplished when you waste a day reading a novel, not some junkie fan site.
8) Visit Britain. Scotland and Wales more precisely. Do it! And make friends while you’re at it.
