Before the clock officially strikes 12, we wanted to wish you all a fun, safe night and a wonderful 2011!
Funfetti: It feels totally surreal to be writing about the year ending. I seriously feel like it just began! 2011 is going to be a big one for me. I’m getting married! I’m hoping I can finally move on in my “career” (or start one). Maybe get some bookshelves in my living room, and hang more pictures in my house. But before I get ahead of myself, I can’t forget all the fun I had this year. Traveling a bit, wedding planning, cooking my first dinner! Most importantly, reigniting my love for writing with COC. It’s been fantastic to reconnect with Red Velvet, chat & complain together each day, and have someone to bounce ideas off of and collaborate with on so many levels. I am so grateful for her friendship, and I’m looking forward to reaching a whole new level of creativity in the coming year. Must say thanks to my real life friends who have supported COC and my writing, and also to our dedicated readers (LUX pals & beyond!). I hope everyone enjoys their celebrations tonight, and is ready for all the next 12 months has to offer!
Red Velvet: I don’t know if this is just something that happens with age but I feel like each passing year flies by faster and faster. I almost can’t wrap my mind around the fact that it’s going to be 2011 in less than a day. But one of the things I tried (and semi-accomplished) to do this year was: find something to feel passionate about (again) and savor the good moments. The good moments included a trip to Naples, FL with my best friends, being a bridesmaid, (re)connecting with friends/coworkers, throwing a baby shower. Just DOING more overall. And as for wanting something to feel passionate about - I got that in the form of Couple of Crumbs. I couldn’t be happier about where it’s led me (the daily chats with Funfetti, my improved writing and new friends - hi LUX fans!). So I guess my wish for this upcoming year is to continue what I’ve been doing. Pursue my interests, be active (but at the same time know when to relax), spend time with loved ones and maybe.. go after new opportunities even if I feel a little scared to. Remember to be brave and confident. Those are my resolutions for 2011! I wish all you lovely readers luck with your hopes for 2011 and a very Happy New Year!
Just a quick thanks to:
