Hello 2012!

2011 began with our group's Chinese wish lantern catching fire mid-air and plummeting to the ground. We genuinely spent the next half an hour listening out for fire brigade sirens! We were afraid it would set fire to a neighbour's house... 

Although 2011 was worse for some in the group than for others, I think we are all happy that a fresh new year is just beginning. I myself didn't have a terrible year but 2012 is already shaping up to be an infinitely better year than 2011!

Number one on my list of things to do this year is learn to drive, something I have been pursuing for a few weeks now. I have some new posts lined up for this blog and am giving some major thought to starting up a Youtube channel also! Overall I really just plan to live life as much as possible this year.

What about you? Does anyone have any special plans or resolutions for this year? I would love to hear about them! 

I wish you all a healthy, special, happy and well-lived 2012! :) x
