Before the New Year: 2011 RECAP

*blinks* – That’s what I think of 2011.  This year went by so fast, I don’t think I managed a blink.  I also don’t remember much of it except that, I moved, started a new school, have a new S.O. (if you don’t know what this means, email me.), and I got SHORTLISTED for the very first time!

For those of you who don’t know, I entered the Small Axe Literary Competition, a contest for poets and writers who incorporate elements of Caribbean discourse in their work.  After waiting for a long time and at some point forgetting that I entered at all, I got an email informing me that I made the short list and though I didn’t win, this is a major accomplishment for me.  You see, this is only the second writing competition I’ve entered.  And as the judges have stated, the entries were all amazing.  That makes me feel good.

So in short (haha!) 2011, has been a pretty great year for me, especially since I got a 6’5″ early Christmas present delivered via US AIRWAYS. :-D .

So to 2012 and all the doomsday conspiracy theorists (diminishing the threat with small caps), I say BRING IT ON!!!
