sometimes i feel like throwin' my hands up in the air, i know i can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying "Lord I just don't care"
But you've got the love I need To see me through
So, this post is going to be my days work. It'll take me a long time but basically I've got a lot to get through. Firstly, hi, howdy, how you doing? It's been a while. You look good.
Now the last time I posted was November, so lets get the important things out the way. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I don't post a lot but there are some important things that I always do around this time of year, and a few exciting things about the upcoming one. I know I'm a little late, but what the hey. I was even later last year! So first...
Firstly, to review last years...
...to be happy with my body.
...to finish what I start.
...to keep my life this way.
Okay so the first one? Generally didn't do very well. I'm not gym person, it was fun and different for a while but it's not for me. I think I'm a little slimmer than last year, as I can fit in some of my smaller jeans, which is good. I still need to lose weight, but we're working on that...
Finishing what I start... Oh boy... I don't know what to say really. I still am the king of the unfinished project. Sometimes my fault, sometimes the fault of circumstance, but still mostly a failure. I'm getting better, I just need the final step of commitment...
And as for keeping my life in a good place? Well I'm glad the most important one I succeeded. Job for one year, Duncan for two years, depression barely worth mentioning. (It's not entirely gone, but it's more of a case of vunerability in certain, rare, situations that remind me of it, rather than actually getting depressed.) And so I'm glad overall how 2010 went... but really? I could have done better. And so that's where we get to 2011... and some mega generic resolutions.
Remember the past... Like I said, last year was good, but I always felt there was something missing. This is silly really. I think it's important for me this year to remember where I've come from, and how far I've come. There's no point sitting around feeling bad about things when I've never had it so good. But also conversely, I have to remember all the things that have propelled me forwards in life and make sure they keep happening.
Live for the present... This one is a lot less vague. This is forgetting the past, ignoring the future and just having some fun! Make sure I see friends, say Yes to all those opportunities and remember the point to life is to live, and so getting bogged down in the silly things is just... silly! I've got so much coming up this year, which I'll mention later, and it's just going to be a blast if I live it right!
Prepare for the future... Whilst I'm all about living for now, I think it's important to figure a couple of things out this year. They relate to mostly, any future career. I need a new job, at least, but I think this year could give me a break through on what to do with my life. I always want to throw in the 'KEEP BEING CREATIVE' as part of this. I love drawing and I love writing but I do seldom do either. If I do ever want it to become something I need to remember that.
So I think that's all vague and fluffy enough. So news... well firstly, last time I posted Nano was happening. Except then it didn't. I loved the basis of the plot, but was one that needed a lot more planning then I gave it. The idea still interests me, so I'll get back to it, just not now! But, I have made some headway in another piece, the one about the end of the world, which despite coming up with the ideas always makes me feel guilty if I ever read Hitchikers or Adams, despite having the ideas before reading either... but that's what editing is for. But basically I'm on the last scene, and it'll have a beginning middle and end! It's too short, doesnt make sense in parts, is inconsistant and sometimes just rubbish. But to finally see it get an end is amazing for me, and I'm really happy about it! Just got to edit the bloody thing now!
But for 2011... so much fun to come. Major things include my first adult holiday. A two week stay in Gran Canaria. Such fun! I also may get to jump out of a plane for charity. Providing everything goes well (touch wood) I will become an uncle! And just... well it's going to be a big year!
Oh, one more things.
Soon, this will be my dog. His name is Reggie, he is from the dogs trust, and we should have him by the weekend. He is my present from Duncan for our Anniversary and Christmas. And it's kind of a big deal. Mainly cause he's so cute. But also, commitment! Woooaaaaaah.
But yeah that's it. Everything is cool and froody.
