the sun's so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars

After reading through Maggie Stiefvater's tumblr, I am even more convinced that A Bad Thing is going to happen to Adam in The Raven King :(

(The way she says "it's ok I'm sure he's fine!" makes me veeeeeerrry suspicious).

I don't want anything awful to happen to any of them, but one of them - barring an asspull on Ms Stiefvater's part (or a really clever something or other) - is doomed by canon ANYWAY.

Also I want to reread the books when I have a stack of books out of the library to read anyway. (IDK about anyone else, but I always feel a weird sense of guilt when I get a book out of the library and then take it back without having read it).

Finally found a free test to work out my personality type and apparently I am an INFP-T. WHATEVER THAT MEANS. It does seem kind of accurate but certainly not the degree where I'm sitting here thinking "oh yeah, that's 100% me!" because it isn't. I am side-eyeing it hard.

Anyway, round up of the year, because it's that time of year, right?

# I nailed all my goals bar one. I didn't manage to play a Kirby (because crippling indecision about which to play, etc). But I did learn to make chutney (easy, but tedious), though I wouldn't say my pixelling is any better, and my music composition is laughable.

But the point is that I'm learning.

I don't know what I'd like to do next year, except maybe actually finish a story or something.

# tl;dr version: it's been an OK year for me. Not too bad, but it could've been better. On the other hand, it was a VAST improvement on the shit show that was 2014.
