I seem to be developing a habit of doing some kind of year-in-review post around the time of the Fall Equinox.

It’s interesting to read what I wrote last year, from the perspective of a year later. I mean wow, what a time of huge changes that was. I wonder if there will ever come a time when I’ll look back on the year past and think, “yeah I’m pretty much the same person I was then”. I don’t think it’s happened yet…

Anyways, onward to This Year in Sentence Fragments.

Work: 2 rotations down, 1 to go. Learning SO much. Figuring out what I want to do and how to best apply my talents, in the short-term. Thinking about the longer term too, but not doing anything about it yet. Am I a designer, a programmer, or both? Bought a car, which then got broken into. Relationship stuff. Performed with Spiral Song, took a break, then came back. Continuing to grow with largely the same friends. Moved from my city full of lovely old things and crime, to a small town full of lovely old things (and less crime). Not living with J anymore — an adjustment, but good. Sister’s wedding. Moved from focusing heavily on writing to visual art. Drawing class. Freelance work for AYSO. Trip to Missouri. Figuring things out.

Yeah, if I had to put it into one sentence, this might have been the year of Figuring Things Out. And also becoming more settled, although I still don’t really have roots.
