2012 was a great year. I kicked it off with my brother and sister-in-law in Ottawa, Canada. It was about -20 degrees celcius outside and we stayed in watching an ice hockey game on TV (yes there was a hockey game on new year's eve!) followed by watching that weird glowing ball drop in New York City.
There were many ups and downs in 2012. A couple of close friends got married and many girls I went to school with either gave birth or announced pregnancies - no not me yet!! Unfortunately I experienced yet another unexpected death, of a friend who was very close and dear to our family. He was only 49.
I did have a number of highlights however! Standing up with my childhood friend Judy for her wedding day in May... Seeing Europe for the first time - with lunch at The Fat Duck in Bray, Berkshire UK on the day of my 27th birthday in January. Purchasing my first business - a dental practice in October and of course seeing Radiohead live and experiencing Thom Yorke's hauntingly delicious voice in November.
Last year I was far too indulgent with little self-control... As much as I adore the lavish lifestyle of melt-in-your-mouth chocolate, the audible crunch of golden flakes of pastry, the tantalizing sensation of champagne bubbles popping on your tongue... It is time to stop throwing caution to the wind and to reign in my hedonistic ways.
The fruits of my sin are evident on my waistline, butt and thighs. Call it cliché but my new year's resolution is to get into shape. So to all ye new-year-dieters out there, I wish you all the best for 2013 - a bumpy road to hot and smokin'... Here's to a sexy year.
