My brother just gave me a copy of the first graphic novel. The artwork is not bad. I'm not too crazy about the hair that seems to be in every character's face. lol

I wonder how they will handle the graphic sex scenes.

1. Get a summer job not connected to the family business.
2. Get a new-ish car--meaning made within the current millenium and not previously-owned by a member of my immediate family.
3. Write some fan fic.
4. Decisively cement out a Senior Capstone project.
5. Send out an original story to a publisher.
6. Find lots of really good fics I haven't read before.
7. Fangirl Mhal.

...Yeah, that should work for now. I feel so accomplished when I look at things from this end!

What's Senior Capstone?

And I need to accomplish #5 of my own for next year. Seriously.

Aren't retrospective resolutions fun?

At my college, there's a six-phase writing program: Phase 1 is a writing seminar held during the two weeks of new student orientation, I don't know what phase 2 is because as a transfer student I didn't need it, phase 3 is one of several class options--I took it via a History of Mexico class ( ... )

4. Get a new car, a shiny black one

1967 classic, with lots of classic rock tapes for music.

3. Use my Kitchen Aid Mixer more. [Pink Cupcakes!]
4. Become a semi-pro wedding player. [everyone needs violas at their weddings.]
5. Take more walks on pretty days.
6. Garden more.
7. Keep my dogs healthy.

Yay! Most of theses worked!
