Happy New Year!

My first (real) goal for 2010 is to finish my first draft of a A Slave's Song.

My second goal is as follows:

Have a blessed New Year everyone! (In America and my time zone, it it officially 11:59 am, December 31st, 2010.) Er, now it is 12:00 AM on January 1st, 2011! :shock:

To tell you the truth, I'm sad we're leaving 2010. :( I've gone through so many life changing experiences that have helped shape who I am, and I've have met so many wonderful people that I'm getting rather melancholy about it all. (I also joined my first active forum; Holy Worlds Fantasy! :D)

As the new year rolls in, I will take comfort in knowing the Lord will be steadfast at my side, and He will lead me through the new year. I'm looking forward to the new experiences in which I hope to learn more about my Lord and grow in my faith. This is my prayer for all of you as well, my fellow Holy Worlders.

With His love and endless blessings,

~Calen

Have a good one! Today feels exactly the same as yesterday, though... :shock:

New year resolutions?

Get into my Bible a lot deeper.
Become more and more a woman after God's own heart.

And many other things, but I won't bore you with them here. :D

Happy New Year! How many of you stayed up to see the New Year in? :)

My goals... well, to write better, draw better, be less frustrated when I'm being creative, get in shape so my asthma is better, and all that boring stuff -- job, car, license, etc. :D Oh yes, and write in my diary every day because I have a page-a-day journal which every year I promise to do...and then don't.

Happy new Years everybody! I hope you all have a great and blessed year. My goals for this year include revising my story, establishing facefinder, and some other things.

We stayed up past midnight, but it was kinda funny because we didn't even realize that it was midnight. My dad just suddenly looked at his watch and said: "Oh, it's midnight." Then we all said "yay" and went to bed. XD

Wow, that really is beautiful. I should write that in my Bible so I can remember it. :)

Happy New Year! :D
I got to spend last night with some awesome friends, which is kind of a first for me. My family never really does anything for New Year's, but our youth conference was this weekend.

My goals are pretty much typical... work on being healthier, grow closer to God... etc.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Eh. I don't usually think up goals for the new year, but spending more time writing would be a good one for me. And I should start working on editing Elementir and Alcaydan.

Happy New Year!

My family somehow developed the tradition to stay up until 11:59pm to see the clock change to the next year. :D

I can't think of any specific goals for this year except for maybe giving NaNo a try, but that is awhile from now... ;)

Happy 2011 people!!! Hope your nights were grand and your fireworks loud and obnoxious.
Goals (in no specific order)
Be louder
Take an engineering class
Make loads of things involving metal and wood
Read some Jane Austen
Write more letters
Distress more pieces of paper
Go camping more
Learn how to make a better fire
Be a bit more insane
Meet more interesting people
And some other ones that are a bit too personal to put here.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Happy twenty-eleven! You can go on saying two-thousand-and-eleven, but I won't!

Um, resolutions? Don't really have any this year. . . well, I have a habit to break, and one to cultivate, and then there's the whole :evil: management thingy. . . :P Grow in God! There!

Haha! I've told someone that before Calen. I'm so glad you shared that!

And why is reading Jane Austin a =P Eruheran? *hand on hip, foot tapping*

Happy New year, all. I'm a little late, but I couldn't help it. I was undergoing self imposed exile for the weekend, but now I'm back :D Just in time to say once more, Happy New Year!
