creative briefing

It seems like I’ve been on holiday duty with dinners, socials, gatherings, reunions, get togethers and what not since the very first day the holidays started. And even though holidays are mostly a myth in an entrepreneur’s world, I’ve been so busy with festivities that work has sort of been pushed to the backseat during the last 2 weeks (both a blessing and a nightmare). 

But I’m back and boy am I happy to see 2008. It’s going to be an exciting year, I can feel it. We’re only a week in, but I’m already off to a great start. I’ve fulfilled all my resolutions!

Okay, so I only made one. But that’s because I wanted to be realistic this year. And what is this one special resolution? It’s something that I’ve been putting off for far too long - no, it’s not getting in shape or eating more healthily (though those were strong contenders for resolutions - but again, I wanted to be realistic). Nope, my one and only resolution this year was actually to finally remodel my room into my home office.

I’m psyched to say that I did it! Well, I’m 90% of the way there, but as I sit at my new Ikea desk in my blue and white room that is equally Ikea-branded, I can’t help but feel the satisfaction of accomplishment. There are still a few things lying around but I’ll have pictures up in the next few days. Stay tuned!

For now, I just wanted to give everyone a heads up on what’s coming around the corner:

• Back to work, back to life, and back to regular blogging!
• I’m polishing up the last bits of my WP tutorial based on the cantwaitforchristmas.com project, so you should see that post go up tomorrow or Tuesday.
• As mentioned, the after-shots of my home office will be going up shortly too.
• This site has been running for just about 6 months now, is it time for a new look? Whether you said yes or no, I’ve got something in the works!
• A lot of subtle How I Met Your Mother references - I’ve been getting a healthy dose of episodes from all 3 seasons this holiday, and it’s just been the most awesomest experience (thanks John!).

I hope all your 2008’s are off to a great start as well! Looking forward to another great year ahead.
