2012 was supposed to be the end of the world, wasn’t it? Well, that was utter poppycock from the get go, given we know that nobody knows the time or day of when the Lord will return. Actually, I should read up on the comments and responses made by people regarding the End of the World 2012 not really being the end of the world. Hrmm.
Anyway, here’s an excellent and mundane YEAR IN REVIEW post for 2012, the year the world was supposedly ending… Of course, there were plenty of things which happened during this year, but these just really, really, stood out. Oh, and I finished 3 books or something like that (hurr, I’m not a total idiot, yays!)
Thanks to those who helped make it such a wonderful year, and for the moments which aren’t listed please know that they’re still dear to my heart 🙂
Looking back at last year’s post, I’ve completed 3 of the 7 anticipated highlights…which could be viewed and rated as disappointing. But is it really??
Here are some of my anticipated highlights of 2013:
- full-time employment
- moving again (or even moving out)
- bidding farewell to Helena (and subsequently welcoming/saying bonjour to…?)
- finishing some backlogged musical projects (hahaha, isn’t this every year???)
- learning more about something called a relationship
- going to Snakes and Lattes
