2011 has been a milestone year. While I did accomplish quite a bit on other fronts, I faltered on most of my resolutions set at the beginning of this year. But first, looking at the good things that I did succeed in:

• Better organization of notes and stuff meant no more searching for the critical info scribbled in the corner of the paper. Filing and archiving have also become a breeze since the notes are already in the right place.
• I also managed to clear my internship requirement in summer at a most unexpected place, with almost no relation to my course area, but challenging and fulfilling.

The not so successful ones which I did achieve to a certain extent:

• As much as I love music, I don’t seem to be musically-inclined. While I didn’t pick up guitar playing this year, I self-learnt VBA programming due to coursework requirement.
• Travelling to the great outdoors – I completed the travelling part. The great outdoors portion – not so much. After a year and a half, I was back in Taiwan for more fun and exploring – more travelling and less shopping this time round.

And as for the rest, well let’s just say that they have been on the backburner. Probably need to work on them starting tomorrow, for the new year of course.
