Veintitres.

I thought we could review my "resolutions" from the start of last year. I didn't do so well.
(accomplished, started and then failed to complete)


Things I would like to do in 2011:
-Finish writing my current novel or start and finish a different one.
-Vlog. At least take a legitimate stab at it.
-Read the all of the Narnia books and the rest of the HP series.
-Figure out what to do with my life. (Though, I just lump this along with the new job thing.)
-Read the Bible the entire way through.
-Solve a Rubik's Cube without the help of YouTube/instructions.
-Watch the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
-Increase my DVD collection to 560 (currently at 280) so it will be doubled.
-Find a new job.
-Complete BEDA.
-Fill every page of the journal that Padge made for me.
-Be more decisive.
-Move. To a different state entirely; or at the very least, to a new house/apt.


Oh well.


I will be 23 years old for 10.5 months of 2012, which sounds so depressing to me. I sincerely hope this year throws me a few exciting and unexpected surprises. 


I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year!

It's another quick post tonight because, well, it's a weekend night and I have somewhat of a life. I just came from Jacob's birthday dinner (HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JACQUES!). We had breakfast for dinner... YUM! ... and homemade strawberry ice cream... DELISH! 

I want to throw a shout out to Adam and his ab dance moves... just a few more of those and you could look just like Shaun T! ;)

I was right to be excited about seeing Soul Surfer last night. It was such an amazing movie! I still can't get over how good it was... in every aspect. It is such an inspirational story... one that God very much had His hands in. I recommend that everyone see it. Ah, I love it!

Today's post is a short one because I've got a birthday party to go to and then I'm off to see Soul Surfer! (Which I am very excited about!) I had a great day off today, but nothing too exciting happened so I won't bore you with the details. I hope you all are having a wonderful day!
