Moving On… 2007 In Review, 2008 “Things To Do”

Wed, Dec 26, 2007

Bar Camp, Events, GeekUp, Stickyeyes

I made an important decision this week, one that has taken over a month of though to decide on, but before we delve into that I’m gonna to list what I said I’d do in 2007 and what I did do..

  • Give Up Chocolate
    • Fecking hell, with 5 days to go until I make a toblerone castle at my desk, I’ve gone without it for the year, I’m not going to lie, it has been difficult and I did move to other sweet type things but all in all I did lose some weight

    Do The Great North Run

    • I did this one as well, It was one of the most fantastic experiences I’ve ever had and I urge anyone to do it, however if your gonna do it, do it dressed up! seriously, nothing gets you going like 3000 Geordies shouting “Go On MARIO”.

    Start A Company

    • hmmm I’ll get back to this one in the middle of Jan, my work with stickyeyes took over a bit but I might have things to announce then

2007 was also an amazing year for my other projects, MTGCast went from 800 listeners to well over 10,000 a week, I’m very proud of the podcast and though it gets criticisms and people are always moaning about “transcripts”, I know that I’ve created something popular, thats why its quite hard to write this :), The week of Jan 20th will be my last show as host of Monday Night Magic, there are a lot of reasons for this, not just the fact that I havn’t played Magic properly in ages, I don’t have the time to keep up with the news and the rumors and the listenership has changed a lot in the last year and wants more information rather than good humored banter.. I will still be very involved in the network (since I own and pay for the bloody thing) but on a more admin and server level..

Onto 2008

  • Make Secret Project N A Roaring Success
    • More about this in the middle of Jan
  • Learn To Semi Play An Instrument
  • Lose Some More Weight
  • Cut down on the goodies but not give up
    • I’ve proved I can give them up, now can I cut them down
  • Sometimes I’ve gotta take my time with things, instead of diving in head first (sometimes good, sometimes bad)
  • Do another big thing for charity
  • Blog at least once a week (this has to be the hardest one)..
