Ai yai yai, I'm your little butterfly~
It's time for New Years. Again. God am I bored.
So this year, what have I accomplished? I've passed eighth grade - always a good thing. I've made two new friends - which is always a good thing. I've become closer to my goal of finishing Revival - a good thing indeed.
I'm not sure how much of a good person I've been. It's hard to say. I haven't been in trouble or anything...just once, and that was totally unfair...But I'm safe. I didn't get coal. :3
Last year, my post was very angst-full. So I was trying to think of a title for this post, because I would probably, once again, be all angsty. So I was going along the lines of "Katana's Second Annual Angst-Filled New Years Post". XD But it didn't turn out that way, it seems.
Um...
I'm bored. So we're gonna go over any random list that Katana can think of and see if she accomplished anything or not. X3

Product-Related Things To Get/Do For 2005
+Azumanga Daioh DVDs 4,5, and 6: Well, I got the fourth
+Monty Python and the Holy Grail: Never had the money
+Finish collecting at least one manga series: Yeah, lucky - Imadoki!
+Try a new manga series: Yeah - Hands Off!
+Get an mp3 player: Yes - the RCA Lyra

Things To Do For 2005
+Get a better host for Numbnuts Unite: Holy crap did I get lucky. I got a free "premium hostee" package at the now-dead-but-transitioning Golden Sun: Adetps Refuge. I need to clear things up now with Jake and Kemosabi...
+Spend more time with my friends: Err, you know what, I can't tell. X3
+Make more friends: Two more posse members were added - the freshman Brogan and the sophomore Justin. Thanks to drumline, I've made some great friends up with the juniors and seniors. ^_^ Drumline guys are great.
+Get in better shape: Sorta. Personal fitness definetly got me...hmm...different. Healthier, I would guess.
+Do homework before nine o'clock: YES! FINALLY!
+Actually finish a short story: Mmm-hmm. Maybe not until November, but I still managed to do it. XD

Goals For 2005
+Get Revival finished by Christmas: Damn, I wish
+Return the first Wheel of Time book back to Lorenza, completely read: Not even close
+Maintain a healthy level of getting music: Would you consider a music library growing by 400 mb healthy?
+Organize my room: Before it turned into a complete disaster zone with SCHOOL
+Do more things off of the computer: That's actually increased thanks to Photoshop = =;;;

Artistic Goals For 2005
+Learn to do CG in Photoshop: *parades around the room with pictures*
+Learn to make Winamp skins in Photoshop: That's for this year
+Enhance my drawing skills: Thankfully, yes. They don't look so chibi-ish anymore.
+Take more time on my drawings and add details: ...*shrugs*
+Spend more time practicing my oboe: Not a bit
+Improve my rating in the articles section of theOtaku.com: Indeed - second most popular (behind the webmaster Adam) with a 96% rating ^_^
+Branch out from anime drawings: Sorta. I drew half of a real-esque face. And a doodle on a biology packet. X3
+Have a clear difference between short-haired girls and long-haired boys in my drawings: ...To me it seems ><;;

Man am I confused and burnt-out. I need something to do and something to try. But first - finish a layout. -.-;;
