Three Books I Am Excited For This Year:

Today I got a little excited.
I pre-ordered Jonathan Safran Foer's latest book.
It has been an evasive little epistle... selling out everywhere. I think due to the difficulty in creating it, they only print it in small numbers.
But I apparently have a copy with my name on it coming soon .



I discovered that my favourite poet in the world - Billy Collins
has another poetry anthology coming out. Yeeha! The title grabs me!


Also Markus Zusak's new book "Bridge Of Clay" is coming. Oooh the anticipation!

Things That Happened in 2010

- Went on a spontaneous trip with Bethany to see Ingrid Michaelson play at a tiny theatre in Katoomba.

- Listened to She & Him a lot.

- Purchased a bicycle and rode it less than I had imagined.

- Moved into a little unit by myself… first time living alone. Enjoyed decorating it with bunting and polaroids and general fun-ness.

- Stared at people and things accidentally… in moments of brain fuzz.

- Had a fun trip to Adelaide with the Birds and Humfreys, where I ate Yum Cha for the first time, and enjoyed some tram-action.

- Bought a car for the first time. It. Is. Amazing.

- Read lots of books with my book club… hoho what delicious fun. Became well acquainted with the book depository.

- Wondered a lot about things, life, the future etc.

- Experimented with my Polaroid, Instax, Diana, and my new Lomo SuperSampler.

- Prayed desperate prayers for me and for my friends and family.

- Received a box full of letters for my birthday.

- Saw Johnny Mayer with my little bro. Enjoyed many a D&M with the brother too.
