New Year's plans and hopes. Random Thursday.

Hallo meine Lieben,

I hope you all survived Christmas and got some nice presents. I also hope that your holidays were not stressful at all, you got some good food and you laughed a lot. 

I am linking up with some wonderful ladies....




... and the topic is...

To be honest I haven't really thought about this topic yet. 
I have never really been a fan of huge New Year's Eve parties so my evening is usually pretty relaxed. There is one thing that I do every New Year's Eve. It is a tradition and it never gets old.

Dinner for one. I don't know if that's popular outside of Europe (David did not know it.) but I watched it the first time when I was a kid with your parents and I never stopped laughing about it. I watch it at least twice every New Year's Eve and I laugh as much as I did the first time. It is just hilarious. Please, watch it if you don't know it. You won't regret it.  So yeah, this is a must every year. Same procedure as every year, James. 
As for plans....hmm...well, I guess the usual. Be succesful, earn money, be nice to people, be a good person and so on.
But there are some little things that I want to get better at in 2013.
I want to get more involved again in animal rights acitivism. I miss doing that. I would love to be able to offer a dog a new home. And a blind cat. That would be my dream. I would love to go to more demos, write more about animal rights, donate more money. Things like that.

I also want to find more time to be creative. I miss that too. I just don't have much time right now, not even in the evening. But I need to make some time for that because it makes me feel good. I want to sew my own clothes, I want to build my own book shelf, write a book...things like that.

I want to spend lots of quality time with David, the pets and my loved ones. I just want to try to be as happy as I can. 
What are your plans and hopes for the year 2013? Enjoy the last days of 2012!
