I had a good jumpstart at studying this weekend. I have way more material to learn than I initially thought but I can do it! Right now I'm reviewing but I hope to be done with review in early February.
I've also decluttered my computer quite a bit though i think I'm only about 10% done going through all my digital media.
I've also finally cleaned up my inbox. I've unsubscribed myself from all those worthless newsletters and notices and I've made filters, etc to organize the mail I do allow. Now I get about 5 or 6 emails a day maybe.
I've also started emailing friends and family. I've decided that I am tired of depending on "social networks" to try and keep in contact with people. I've lately been in a "facebook crisis" wondering what's the point and pondering how to use that resource for "good." But I can't resolve anything and just have to accept that facebook is just a vanity.
I'm being proactive and emailing someone every day. This may become overwhelming but I don't think it will.
I miss my friends and family- I mean I miss knowing what they're up and how their day was. I am of course informed of all the big things but it's not the same. I don't feel homesick or anything like that. I just disconnected. It's not as disturbing as it sounds. I just know that I don't have to live with it so I should do something about it.
This week my creative project will be making birthday cards. I have already filled in people's birthdays on a special calendar and for January I have around 5 people to make cards for! That and I have things to send to people that should have been sent already! So this week is dedicated to sending things abroad.
Hm. Might conflict with my other goal of figuring out the best way to burn the video of the preschool kids that I made and if I want to include a slideshow or something else on the cd.
Well lots to do!

I wrote that after lunch today and now it's 11:44PM and I wasted an 1.5 hours on the internet. Damn it!
