2012 in Pictures

I did this last year and enjoyed it, so here I go again with some narcissistic pictures of myself over the past year. 2012 was a lovely year: I spent time with amazing people (though sadly didn’t see nearly enough of some other amazing people), learnt new things, ate and drank and saw awesome things, travelled, and generally just had an ace time. I hope 2013 can be just as smiley, silly, friendly and filled with cake and beer.

I attempted to follow some sort of pattern, either chronologically or according to theme, but they’ve ended up as a massive disjointed jumble. The pictures were taken in Bratislava, Budapest, Prague, and of course my homeland. They were taken in cafes, at parties in disused factories, on trains, in art galleries, in bars, on walks, at Christmas markets, and simply on the street. They show me, my boyfriend, a small selection of my lovely friends, and all sorts of other bits and pieces that make me happy. Happy new year everyone! I hope 2013 is good to you.

Ridiculous Resolutions

New year’s resolutions can be great. They can be motivating and fulfilling and rewarding. They can also be completely soul-destroying. They can morph into something terrifying that will follow you around during the year as you go about doing good things and being a decent person, belittling all your efforts and achievements by reminding you that you haven’t done that arbitrary thing you said you would.

This year I’m only making ridiculous resolutions.

  1. I will join and then promptly forget about as many social networking sites as I can.
  2. I will write as many stories about seaweed monsters as I can.
  3. I will daydream about taking a year off for a whirlwind adventure of the world, and will eventually settle on a weekend in Berlin (and freaking love it too).
  4. I will dance wildly, whether in public or in private, at least once a week.
  5. I will drink more tea, less coffee. I’m a tea drinker at heart, always have been.

What are your ridiculous resolutions?
