Goodbye 2011 Hello 2012!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!
Today is the start of a new year. All across the globe people are celebrating the passing of 2011 and vowing that 2012 will be a GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL TOMORROW! Hopefully everyone is partying in safe ways and are having a blast while doing so!
Happy New Year one and all!
2011 has been full of a lot of ups and few downs for me. I had a lot of trips this year. A lot. Quite frankly I am not sure how my wallet survived. Anime Weekend Atlanta, Otakon, Halloween Disney Party, Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios, Sea World, Pokemon Mall Tour, and of course JAPAN!!!!! There were also a few weddings that I attended/was in this year. I guess that made the year go by so fast as each month I was looking forward to the next big event.
While I had a lot of fun this year there were some downs. There were some major disagreements that occurred among my family members and friends. One in particular resulted in me blocking this person from all social media outlets. That might sound pretty minor but this person offended me so badly I had to cut off all contact. Add in the fact that my momager is STILL trying to get a divorce, my brother moved far away, and my other brother moved off to college 2 hours away and our family is a little spread out at this point.
Oh and I still work at Mike’s Pizzeria. Yeah.
But there were some happy/surprising moments this year. While many people (including two close friends) lost their jobs I still had a place to make money at. My cat who is pushing dinosaur status is still alive. And eat styrofoam apparently. While flying REALLY kicked my butt I didn’t get as sick as often as I did in 2010. And I didn’t get in a car accident this year while every single one of my fellow delivery drivers did (although I did bump a car in the parking lot…).
Oh and I went to Japan. I know people are probably sick of hearing about this and it might be sorta….special to mention it as Japan went through HORRIBLE things this year…but it was the highlight of my year. I had such a great time and hopefully my little tourism dollars helped a bit. Maybe me singing Japan’s praises from the roof top touched someone and helped people realize it is safe to visit Japan. And spends boatloads of cash.
Hope that 2012 has a year of great animes!
So what is coming for 2012? Probably not as many trips. Well I guess that is not true as we will probably go to two anime conventions (Anime Weekend Atlanta and Anime Festival Orlando) and we do have tickets for LegoLand. But maybe not as much flying. Way too much flying in 2011. My days have been cut back at work (-____-) from 5 days to 4 so maybe I will have more time to spend with my friends. And of course blogging. XD Blogging is still fun and fulfilling to me so I plan on continuing for the year 2012.
What are my goals for 2012? Maybe not to be so set to a schedule. I tend to get a little stressed when I am behind on anime posts (as you can see I still have some catching up to do…). Blogging is supposed to be fun so I should just roll with the punches and blog things when I have time. So when things come up in life I won’t think NOOO I had a plan for today. Most of the things I want to accomplish can wait until tomorrow, like cleaning, blogging, ect. When things come up I should just embrace them and be more flexible.
I also need to start reading all those mangas I have in my computer room. X__X Can’t really buy more when I have 2392392 still to get through.
I am going to TRY and work on my attitude, especially at work. Maybe I should just accept the stupidity that I am surrounded by…..Take a deep breath and realize that it is just pizza. That I should be grateful NOT to be my co-workers. Smile more.
Other than that I think I am just going to keep on doing what I am doing now. Maybe let things slide a little more in regards to my family. NO MORE ANGER. But I plan on still being me, having fun, collecting Hello Kitty, and blogging.
I hope that everyone has a positive and productive 2012. I hope the job market improves for everyone, that everyone remains healthy, and that we all co-exist better as we share this planet all. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy new year 2012!
Yes, blogging is supposed to be fun. You can always cut yourself some slack and pick only two or three anime to write about.
I am planning to write about 'Another' for winter anime review.
But your review will definitely better. I lack the humor sense that you have!
Black Rock Shooter's OVA is so confusing to me, so I won't expect much from the anime.
It would be great if you write review about Nisemonogatari...
But you have to watch Bakemonogatari first. That anime is a great one! Even though I hate how it got real life photographs mixed into anime.
Eternia- Happy New Year on Jan. 5th! XD Silly me. Hopefully 2012 will get a little better. So far not too impressed with it. But we do have the Summer Olympics this year so that makes me happy.
I guess it is better to have a lot of shows to watch than nothing at all right? XD I love that you love my sense of humor but I think if you feel compelled to blog you should! Wit just pours from my finger tips and I am sure it can for you too. Although unless Another is like Blood-C this show might be too dark to have TOO much fun with. In terms of humor anyway.
I have hope in the Black Rock Shooter anime. Because having hope is fun yes? I think the OVA was way too short and gave us NO answers on what the heck was going on. With the anime they might be able to say Oh I don't know...what the other world is? XD Answers are always good. OVA's are fun but when so much of it is devoted to slice of life stuff it is hard to understand the fantasy of it. So hopefully Black Rock Shooter can find a little redemption on the web.
I probably should have watched more animes during this hiatus, animes like Bakemonogatari, but obviously real life has been kicking my butt. Le sigh maybe next hiatus I can do so. XD
