Quote I came across today

May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art -- write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.

New Year 2011

I finally finished a project I've been working on for a while. It's not the prettiest thing, but I'm proud that I stuck through with it and finished it. I present the knitted 'wave' blanket - of which I found a pattern on some online blog for, memorized and then proceeded to knit for over a year. I took the summer off, since it's so deathly hot in my apartment. So maybe it was more than a year, but it's done.

I'm looking forward to 2011. I'm at a better point than I was last year at this time. I didn't reach all my goals from last year, but this year I intend to take them in smaller chunks which should help.
