Posts Tagged ‘New Year’

Last year, I posted a summary of my accomplishments of the year, my aspirations for the next, and a super nerdy D&D drawing. Allow me to do exactly the same thing now. This year, I have:

• Graduated from college
• Made the inevitable transition from PC to Mac
• Moved to Portland
• Secured my first ever apartment
• Supported myself as a freelance artist
• Worked on a major new title (Memorial, of course!)

I’m not sure how I’ll top this year as far as accomplishments. Throughout my life, graduation has always been a high point, right before I get thrown back to the bottom of the heap as a terrified freshman. I guess now I’m a freshman at life, and my one goal for 2012 is to get better at it, however slowly.

I hope everyone can look fondly back on this year, and best wishes going into the next. Here’s the nerdy picture I promised.

Well, we’ve almost made it to a new decade! I hope everybody can look back fondly on the year past. Here’s a quick recap of my own 2010:

• Big improvements in art
• Created and maintained this website
• Lived in France
• Lived in Portland
• Decided what I’m going to do after I graduate (!)
• Did minor work for major comic companies
• Made lots of new friends
• Went to a gay bar with lots of old friends
• Dealt with computer failure, a day job, and an evil landlady

It’s like I’m an adult now!

Well. Almost. I feel like 2011 will be the deciding factor in that uphill battle. I still have to work my way to the end of my college career, save up a bunch of money, move halfway across the country, and learn to fend for myself without the comfort of a large grey housecat drooling on my pants… but I’m confident that I can manage.

So happy New Year’s, everyone! To celebrate, I give you the nerdiest picture in the world a picture of my boyfriend’s and my own D&D characters about to kiss. D’aww.
