take a photo every day for one year (read all 2 entries…)
darn

I got so far with this (9 months in, only 3 days skipped), only to get sick (and landed in the hospital) and have to give up. (and consequently forget about it) But, it’s nearly 6 months later now, I’ve bought a nice new camera and I’ll see about starting again – probably the start of spring or the last day of school or something… buy myself a bit of time….



write a song (read all 3 entries…)
yeah...

I know I’ve said this before (and then it backfired on me), but I’m closing in on completion here! I’ve got 2 nice bits lined up, both fit to be a chorus, so I just have to choose and form one of them into a verse (stretch it or something) – figure out that one problem-chord – write the rest of the lyrics (they never were the problem anyway) – and then polish it up nicely and make a demo recording.

I feel so proud :P



own a Beatles shirt
bah

I should’ve completed this goal a long time ago! damn, I don’t now how come I haven’t….
I’ll see about buying a nice plain black tee in the next couple of weeks and put one of my designs (‘I am the walrus’ or ‘She looks more like him than I do’) on the list for my presentation/exhibit in 8 weeks time. That should make me worry enough to finish it already…
