Hope 2008 went well for you :)

Spent a couple of hours this afternoon contemplating what I wanted to do with the next year, and thinking about what I'd got out of the last one.

The Good:

• Completed my first year of Electrical Installation, and was in Inverness at college a total of four times.
• Worked like hell, paid the bills
• Completed an OU Level 1 course in Maths, which I passed with 88% (Yay!)
• Did a 90 Hour 'Foundation Studies in Exercise' course, just for teh lulz
• Sang tenor in the Christmas Choir for the second year
• Wrote some songs with Neil
• Little trips to Glasgow to see friends and remind myself what civilisation looks like.
• Living in Shetland and seeing my parents and sisters.
• Keeping my job.
• Got a wee Asus laptop. Sweet.

The Bad:

• Stress. At college, at OU, at house mess.
• Working too much~ tired busy, no time :E
• Feeling like I'm not really getting done what I want to do.
• Living in Shetland, away from my friends

I am thankful for another year.

Thoughts for 2009:

• College work: I have project and logbook to complete by the end of March, so that will take up the first quarter year.
• Computer: Want a workstation for recording music as my current computers aren't really snippy enough to deal with uncompressed audio.
• Album: Want to get some more substantial music-making done, take those songs and get them on a computer.
• Meditation: Make the habit of doing it every day.
• Gym & Exercise: To keep going whenever possible.
• Japanese: Muuch more work needed XD
• Livejournal: In a moment of MADNESS I went and bought another years subscription, so I shall make an effort to post once a week.

And for a bit of fun I'm going to go for a HUNDRED BOOK CHALLENGE, since I got to 69 in 2007 ::list::. I'm not going to count manga or graphic novels, since I could probably whip through a hundred in a week. Got a nice Amazon voucher for Christmas from Mom & Dad, so I gleefully went and ordered a huge number of books.

Have a nice year, my peoples! :D
