Buntings

Have I mentioned lately how obsessed I've become with buntings? That and lanterns. It's a bit ridiculous really seeing as that I've got more buntings and lanterns than I do the wall space to hang it on. But I just can't seem to stop myself from continuously buying them!

*PS. Blogging just got a whole lot easier with my new blogger app. Maybe my goal of one blog post a week ain't so hard after all.

New year, new beginnings

First sunrise of 2012, Palm Beach

Is it too late to greet someone "happy new year" on the last day of the first month of the year? Hmm, possibly. But seeing as there is a whopping total of one person reading this thing, I think I can defy social conventions this one time...

Happy new year!

I don't know why but for some reason I have a really special feeling about 2012. I guess it's because it's only the first month of the year and already so many new things have happened to me. For example:

+ I finally took the plunge and started bible college this year (my first class was last night)

+ I have left young adults ministry at church and am back leading a group of crazy, young, fun senior highschoolers (sad but so exciting at the same time)

+ I am planing a missions trip to go to Cambodia with She Rescue Home later in the year

+ I took my first surfing lessons with Will (a very late - think 2010 - Christmas present)

+ The PR agency I work for is moving new offices in April which will save me so much time and money commuting into the city every day. Not to mention the brand new office space is Amazing (yes with a capital A)

And that's just January, folks! I cannot wait to see what this year will bring. Are you excited for 2012?

I have so many things I've wanted to blog about this past month - Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, my holidays, all the books I've been reading (including one of my new favourite's which I'll tell you more about in a separate post) - but days have just gone by so quickly. New Year's resolutions aren't really my thang but one resolution I'd like to re-commit to is keeping up this blog.

I know I aimed to write at least two blog posts a week but maybe to make the goal more achievable (it's not a cop out.. much), I'll go back to writing at least one blog post. I can do that, right? Fingers crossed.

Until next time...
