Stop Being Carbon

A short list of things I accomplished in 2008

• Take more photos
  No. In fact I think I took even less photos than in 2007. But I’m looking forward to spring and some holidays!
• Launch at least the two projects I’m working on
  No, although I invested some time into some pretty cool thing, it never went live. But I will restart it in 2009.
• Spend a few days at the seaside with my girlfriend
  No, space for improvements.
• Get my degree
  Yes, with distinction.
• Spend a weekend in at least one European capital
  Only one capital and no weekend, but I’ve been to Madrid, Hamburg and Bergen.
• Move to Vienna
  Yes.
• Go to the theatre, at least once twice
  No, not a single time. Shame on me.
• Go running, two times a week minimum
  Went running quite often during the summer (4 to 5 times a week) but only once a week or two since I’m living in Vienna.
• Get a job (in the web industry)
  Not in the web industry, but a cool job.
• Plant herbs
  Not until now but will do it tomorrow.
• Do a painting together with my girlfriend
  There are still three days left, right?
• Contribute to some Open Source projects
  If two lame bugfixes count, then yes.
• Learn another programming language
  Got pretty fluent in Python, yes.
• Learn Cocoa
  No.
• Find a flat without a pre-installed kitchen
  No, the kitchen was pre-installed, but is nevertheless quite cool.
• Learn Swedish again
  No.
• Spend more time cooking and baking
  Yes, your own flat really helps!
• Watch ARTE more often (or quit my subscription)
  No, but I won’t quit my subscription.
