Happy 2013!
Happy New Year everyone! I can't say it's been a terribly exciting or earth-shaking year for me - still working at Chapters bookstore, still trying to get my degree and failing at the whole turning-in-assignments-thing. Notable events include:
- The Canucks didn't make the playoffs (again) and no one is surprised. Also NHL lockout.
- Worked on my cooking 'skills' and made attempts at a vegetable garden (with mixed success).
- Went on an a long camping/roadtrip around the province in an un-airconditioned car in 40C weather (and had a good time despite that).
- Missed out on the cool solar eclipse and Venus transit due to shitty weather.
- Joined Pinterest, and valiantly resisted all attempts to get me to sign up for a Facebook account.
- Completely buggered up my laptop by spilling tea on it.
- Didn't finished my reading list, though I put a pretty big dent in it - of course I also have a gazillion more books to put on it. Perils of working in a bookstore.
- Saw some awesome movies (Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises, The Hobbit, Skyfall)
- Turned into an utter nerd for Game of Thrones and had my childhood obsession with all things Tolkien re-awakened.
Here's hoping 2013 is better (or at least less boring). And there'll be no New Year's resolutions for me this time, as I suck at keeping them and maybe this year I can use a kind of reverse psychology on myself. ;)
