So I have nothing better to do with my life but work, gym, and watch TV. Now, I have decided to add a bit of literature to my life. Therefore, I've decided to throw together a reading list for the next couple weeks:
1. Hello Kitty: The remarkable story of Sanrio and the billion feline phenomenon - by Ken Belson
2. Blink - by Malcolm Gladwell
3. Outliers - by Malcolm Gladwell
4. Wikinomics - by Don Tapscott & Anthony D. Williams
5. Freakonomics - by Stephen D. Levitt & Stephen J.Dubner
6. Get Back In The Box: Innovation from the inside out - by Douglas Rushkoff
Hopefully, I'll have a pinch of a social life.

Breathe In. Breathe Out.
So apparently since the holidays started, I have nothing to do but blog about my lame life. Hooray! As 2010 comes to an end, I guess it's time to reflect on what kind of year this was and set goals for what I want accomplished in 2011.
2010 was pretty tame. But then again, my life is pretty tame. I stressed out about my last semester of university. Pretty certain that I was going to fail LAW534: Law of Business and Government Regulations. As the semester was coming to an end, I freaked out about what to do with the rest of my life. I also turned 22 this year and it's been just ok so far. I realized I wasn't going to move out this year (Sorry Jenicka!). I finally graduated from Ryerson and now hold a Bachelors of Commerce. I embarked months of confusion of what to do with my life. Didn't apply to any real jobs. But got a little promotion at my part-time non-real job! Woo! Then a couple health scares happened to a certain person who starts with a 'J' and ends in an 'icka'. No more health scares! Then I saw my first ballet courtesy of Veronica! And Christmas 2010 was awesome. Yep, that sums up 2010.
So for 2011, I am going back to school 100%. Most likely in the summer. I am determined to travel abroad to the UK. And to do all these things, I need to open a savings account. I want to start really saving to move out of my house. I guess in past years, I've never said what things I wanted to do in that year. It's always been "exercise more" etc... which is good, but harder to keep track of. But the previous post does apply still =P.
Cheers to the New Year!

Merry Christmas to all, and to all, a goodnight! HOHOHO
It's finally Christmas 2010! Just spent the day with family, lazying around. Opened some presents, and slept a little bit. I always enjoy this time a year because each year, we go on living our lives day by day, giving little thought about those who mean the most. But during this holiday season, it's time to think about others and think not so much about myself. So this is thanks to the people in my life. Thanks for listening to me complain. Thanks for giving me good advice. And, thanks for being there when I need you. So I do wish all your Christmas wishes come true and that you have a wonderful, and exciting new year because you all deserve it.
