something about the date 2/11, i like.
i think the numbers just look nice together.

juan's gift to me: new colored pencils =)

lately, i have rediscovered pandora. i start my playlist with adele then it takes me to a whole list of music i love. then i draw in my room and sing like a tool. unemployment is more fun than i thought. well, that's until it's time to pay the bills. coming up real soon. (nervous laughter).

while my time of unemployment has been filled with a lot of nothing, i have enjoyed it a lot. i think we all deserve a bit of a break, right? a break from working, routine life style, north korea, things i am just not good at, err. only when we take a break from things, can we come back to re-evaluate everything with a fresh perspective. or at least i hope so.

i've been drawing lately, mainly with just pen, pencil and colored pencils. it feels completely new and foreign, and i am enjoying this process. it's hard enough to find your place and voice in this world. finding your place and voice on a piece of paper feels even harder.

jane and i tend to have slightly overachieving lists of new things to do. following through is the hardest part. with this being said, let us begin a new list of goals. cheers for overachievers.

- keep drawing
- learn the guitar
- collect images of interior design i like: for our new house (what a dream!)
- yoga + pilates (took my first class today and i loved it)
- find my direction in life (and a job)
- finish reading the shack.
- wedding planning. wahahah. ive done nothing.

i think that's a pretty manageable & achievable set of goals.
