Happy New Year to you all. I really hope each one of you have a wonderful 2011. You all deserve it. *smishes flist* Thank you for making 2010 such a positive and happy one for me.
At the party last night we had a round table meme so I thought I'd share that here:
It's called One Achievement, One Regret and One hope...
Real Life:
2010 Achievement: Having a damn good year. It's a kind of cop out achievement but looking back 2010 was such a positive and up beat year for me and I'm hoping that was due to my frame of mind. I was happy and I let myself be content with things that happened in RL.
2010 Regret: Regretting can be a negative thing to live with so instead I see it more as something I would like to have done more of. For me, I regret not keeping in touch with my family as much as I should. I live somewhat cocooned in my own little world sometimes and I didn't take the time to let my family know how much I love and appreciate them.
2011 Hope: I have made a resolution and I hope to achieve it. I want to trim up. Seriously trim up. My aim is to lose 5kg. It doesn't look like a lot but in reality it'll be damn hard. It will mean LOTS of exercise and cutting back on the carbs. The BIGGEST challenge will be the one my hubby and I have set for ourselves to kick it all off. Two months without alcohol. ACK! We both drink too much (every night) and so it will be a massive challenge for us.
We have even set bets on who will break first (as incentive). If he breaks first he gets to by a watch of his choice (long story, but he is addicted to buying watches...) and if he breaks I get to go to Wincon next year. That's the deal. As much as I want to go to Wincon, I hope neither of us break. 2 months! We can do it! 5kg! I can do it!!
Fandom:
2010 Achievement: Attending the All Hell Breaks Loose Convention in Sydney. Completely new experience for me and it took a lot for me to actually go. But I'm so glad I did.
I also like that I'm writing more. I'm not a writer by any means, but I have enjoyed writing the episode reactions and the occasional meta. I also really enjoyed the vidding chat over at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
spnroundtable recently.
2010 Regret: Hmm... I could wear my heart on my sleeve and say I regret not making a (what I call) "Fifth Circle" vid. (yep - I am referring![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
luminosity's vid). I have this unspoken (until now it seems..) desire to make a really artistically awesome vid. That's not me whining about what I've made so far, I am mostly happy with what I've done, I just hope to achieve those kinda artistic heights one day.
2011 Hope The above always stands. I hope to get closer to that achievement. But my main hope it that I have as much fun as I did this year. I've chatted to some amazing new people this past year and have enjoyed my LJ and fandom year.
I hope to get to this year's AHBL convention again. (eta: informed that that's in 2012. So that will have to go into next year's hopes... *g*)
I hope to continue to have fun vidding (oh man, I have 5 vids I want to make yesterday. There's nothing quite like being away from your editing program to inspire ideas). So I suppose I hope to be able to play with all the ideas I have at some point during the year.
That's me and my self styled meme. *g* (back to nursing my sore head now)
*huggles* to you all and I hope all your wishes and dreams come true in 2011.
Happy New Year to you all. I really hope each one of you have a wonderful 2011. You all deserve it. *smishes flist* Thank you for making 2010 such a positive and happy one for me.

Date: 2011-01-01 11:14 am (UTC)I'll chat to you about your plans tomorrow. I am looking forward to it. My non drinking starts when we get back to Perth (so 7th Jan) - so we can have a drink tomorrow if the opportunity presents itself. :D
In fact - I feel like getting in as much as I can before the 7th. Which is a terrible way of looking at it. Food too. Life will be tough when I get home (but I am looking forward to the challenge. And trimming up!)
See you tomorrow.<33
