How to Get What You Want!
I love to draw, and I love drawing with a fountain pen. As a result, I was recently searching the internet for flexible-nibbed fountain pens. You see, most fountain pens are built for writing, which means that you don't want too much flexibility in the nib. However, you want a nib that can flex between a fine line and broad fat strokes for sketching and drawing, it adds speed and expression to your drawn line. So, after a short browse, I found that such a thing does exist and promptly ordered it.

Resolutions get cancelled Goals get Accomplished
I do goals not resolutions Every year people choose to create New Year resolutions. I was and have never been that person. A few years ago I posted a status on Facebook that I do goals not resolutions. Resolutions to me are temporary. Goals are more permanent, especially if you write them down. If you write them down whether its at the beginning of the year, the beginning of the month, the beginning of the week or just the beginning of the day, at the end of what ever time frame you choose you can look back and see what you accomplished, if you accomplished it all or if you still have more to go.

2020 — Reading for me
Like everyone my 2020 was, let’s just say different. One of the things that did not change was my consumption of books. Today is December 22, 2020 as I write this and I just met my ‘Goodreads’ goal of 70 books today. I will add one to that before the year is over.

Decent Debutante
First off, let me slap 2020 in the face. Ahhh...that felt good. Now, onto 2021. I see you lurking, year. Come into the light. There you are. You don’t have to hide. And already, you are showing signs of being unruly. You saw what I just did to last year. Do you want the same outcome?

The New Normal
The saga continues . . . . . . 2020 was a crazy year. Started off amazingly, with so many hopes, dreams, & ambitions to behold. Then boom - COVID-19, took over the entire world. Seemed like the virus came out of nowhere, and just destroyed life as we know it.

No More Only Giving Half Of Myself
Well Dream, it's the 31st of December, 2021 and you've done it! Everything that you said you would accomplish this year was accomplished by you. Your theme for this year of your life was to demonstrate perfect self-expression in all areas of your life. You were bored with only being half of the self you knew you really were inside and you were tired of only giving the world the lesser half of yourself. You were in complete awe of the young woman living as you so vibrantly in your imagination. She was completely dynamic and you loved how she approached the world, how she looked at life, and how there was no separation between who she was being and who she wanted to be. You wanted to be more like the imaginary you living in your mind and you made a decision to fully embody her.

BHAG of 2021
Dear Diary, Happy New Year. It’s been ONE HECK OF A RIDE. We didn’t see this coming, not in a million years. It’s like a nightmare turned into reality. The borders are shut, protests and natural disasters are wilder than ever, people dying left, right and center. In just a matter of weeks, the world turned has upside down.

Preparing for Chinese New Year
As a Canadian-born Chinese American, the turn of the year is always elongated by Chinese New Year festivities as our new years follows the traditional lunar calendar and takes place usually weeks after the first of January. My childhood memories of this special holiday are marked with large family gatherings over traditional foods, receiving and giving oranges and tangerines as signs of goodluck and prosperity, receiving "lucky money" in little red envelopes to put under my mattress for goodluck, attending and participating in Chinese New Year festivals which include watching lion dances, martial arts and dance performances, plays about Chinese history and mythology, and burning incense in honor of our ancestors, amongst other things.

2021: The Art of Deliberate Creation
Dear @bosskatie of 2022, Wow. I can't believe you've actually made it. From where you stood at the beginning of 2021, to where you are now (one year later), it's like you've stepped into an entirely new world. A completely new reality that at one point only existed within your mind. Our mind. My mind right now, visualizing you, standing there on your balcony, reading this letter, smiling.
