I'll add a small wish: not to catch any cold or the flu this winter. I know this is probably a lot to ask for since I can't remember when that didn't happen, and it may not seem like a very important wish, but it always takes me a long time to heal and I could really do without that. :shifty:

However, I must say that with Catalonia and Québec sharing many political and cultural ideas, the Canadiens ar my second NHL fav team.

:w00t:

You seem to know quite a lot about Québec, and hockey! :cool: Do you manage to watch hockey once in a while?

Then let's hope that Sydney Crosby (best player of the Pinguins as well as the NHL) returns to health.

That would be cool! :D

Oh cool, I'm not the only one who wants to learn a language! :D I'll be happy to practise French with you if you go back to it.

I'd like to go back to my piano lessons one day, I can't play anything anymore (not that I've ever made it very far), but if only there were 26 or 27 hours in a single day... :( At this rate, I will only start playing again when I'll retire. :cry:

You also played piano? I did too. :D But I stopped a year ago because I lost access to the piano. :( Hopefully I can practice again this year. :)

Now that I think more, I'd like to try something new this year. Maybe Tai chi, since several years ago I used to practice Taekwondo (although I was very bad/poor at it).

I've never even had a piano, only a good full size keyboard. It's less expensive and easier to move than a piano, but of course, it's not quite the same. I did love to be able to use a headset. :D I guess if I should start again, I would need to wish for another teacher; I gave up because of lack of time, but I don't think the way he was teaching suited me at all anyway. :confused:

I often find myself wishing I had tried things I was *not* good at when I was younger, so that now I'd be better. :)

I think the hard part is knowing when I have enough content to start assembling the 1st draft(?) & begin indexing, & such.

Hmm, what am I expecting from 2012? Well, let's see.

I'm hoping;

. To write more fanfiction, as well as expand on my own work
. To do well in my classes
. To hang out withf riends
. To get into a summer writing course, and even storyboarding course
. To potentially hear that Rainbow Parakeet will be translated and released

And last, but certainly not least

.To see the death of the SOPA/PIPA bills, and to see Lamarr Smith being kicked out of office

I'm hoping that I'll be able to fix the problem that I have with eating, and that the economy will be fixed either this year or by 2013. (Actually anytime soon for that matter.)

The only thing I hope for in 2012 is to do well this semester. I have quite a few credit hours this semester and I think this semester will probably be my hardest so far. Hopefully I'll come out of it relatively unscathed. :lol:

@Shiyonasan
Ah, I should hope for that as well. My 2nd semester is starting soon. Right after my birthday I have Finals for 1st semester. I got so behind in my World History class. Need to not fail like I did this semester 0_0
