Original Cin

Merry Christmas everyone. Things have changed a lot for me this past year, and even though there’s still a lot to do (and I didn’t do as much as I would have liked), I’m proud of what I’ve done.

• I moved from a rural to an urban environment and changed from a retail to an office job.
• I learned a bit of Actionscript.
• I created some Wordpress templates.
• Although I haven’t (yet) created a physical clock, I made the graphical clock on this blog and also created a personal XUL task scheduler. I learned XUL.
• For my 2008 theme, I also made a (cheap but functional) full-sized bed. The materials used (heavy, brand new cardboard) made Scott remark that I’ve become a professional hobo, but I prefer to think of myself as crafty and frugal.
• Not related to me: Someone made money shorting gasoline.
• Did well on the GRE.
• I visited lots of neat locations in Chicago.
