I landed in London just a few hours ago. And it's cold. Cold. Cold. Cold. My toes can't seem to get warm and the heating isn't doing much to circulate warm air in this flat. I was lucky enough to be upgraded to Business Class again today, which means I'm pretty well rested. It was much harder to leave home this time around. We had such a nice holiday — with family and friends in San Diego. Lots of food (I gained 3.5 pounds), lots of singing and lots of love. We took a boat ride around San Diego bay for Dad's surprise birthday celebration. Pictures from the holiday can be found here.
Home. Family. Love. I miss it today, on this cold London night.
I've decided that 2009 will be the year of creativity. I'm going to prioritize all the things that I've always wanted to do but never had the time to. This means more focus on writing, on entrepreneurship and on photography. I'm going to do 365 Days – a photography project where you take a picture a day an entire year. I've tried this before and failed miserably (I got through two days and then forgot or got lazy or both). But this year, it will be different. I want to get better at this. And I want to see the world as abundantly as possible. And photography does that – it forces you to see the world in a whole new way. So, as a gift to myself, I'm taking on 365 Days. Wish me luck.
