2007 recap: Where do you want to go today? |
As we reach the end of 2007, I’m going to cross that line into the cliche "here are the highlights of 2007 and here’s what I’d like to see in 2008" post. Last year, I called it the year of "new things". If I were to create a label for this year, I’d consider it a year of traveling. I went to philly at least twice, crossed the atlantic for the first time to italy with my family and then to london for work, I went to vegas, I went to florida, took trips to cleveland to see rachel, took a trip or two to DC, stopped taking daily drives to work and started walking to work, and i took a few other road trips as well. I definitely enjoy traveling, and i definitely consider myself blessed to have the means, time, and friends that make it all possible.
So, I’m graduated with my bachelor degree in professional communicated and information systems from robert morris university…finally. at least i finished before Keren. Serah officially made me an uncle by giving birth on the 20th. and I don’t really have too much to complain about at all. But, I’ll share with you my new years resolutions and we’ll see how well I do with them.
That’s all i got so far. Should keep me busy. I forget if the idea is to make goals specific so you know you reach them or not, or to keep them vague so that you don’t get frustrated and quit…oh well. I’ll be off to DC this weekend to meet my niece, then back to ring in the new year. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
uncle cracker |
I’m an uncle. Josephine Jean Pesce was born somewhere around 6pm today, December 20th, the same day that my Grandmother Hall was born! yay!
off the dirt road |
i always wanted to take a trip across the world or country and get a jar full of dirt from each spot. maybe build shelves in my house that had the map of the wall painted behind it, and on each shelve i’d put the jar of dirt from that location. same thing foes for water from oceans and rivers too..
Queue: Get in line. |
here’s an idea for a video game i came up with in the airplane. I call it "queue." Basically, it’s a sim crossed with lemmings. The idea is to manage people in lines in different scenarios. Each scenario would have a prize for passing it and that prize could assist you in later levels. Perhaps you could chose which level you wanted to play first and have levels unlocked at certain points in the game. I always liked that about megaman, that you could chose what bosses to fight, and then use their suits later on. Anyway, here’s a few levels I came up with:
the lemmings idea comes in because you’d have to place stereotypes of people down and have them go through your set up. idunno, i’d play it.
park on the drive way |
I want a really long black top drive way. I think i’d like the house to be back in the woods a little bit, but I always loved houses that sit far from the road ominously. Not too much of a wind in the road, but maybe an S shape to it. Something that kids can sled ride on though. Which would be a hard thing to do if I put in a heated driveway, but that’s what I want too. I love the look of white snow trimmed up to the black driveway, and naked trees dotting the path. Almost morbidly dark and mysterious, but that’s what I like about winter. I also want a nice sized paved area next to the house/garage, enough for a half court basketball game. I also want a cul de sac like how you see in the old english movies, just a big loop and maybe some sort of fountain in the middle, but a decent sized area in the middle so that you can put some benches or something.
