Bye Bye 2007
It’s that time of the year, when you look back to what has been done and look forward to what you hope is coming. All considered, it has been a good year, even if there were a few unpleasant surprises along the way.
- I did not expect to lose my job, for example, but when one door closes another opens and now I am in a much better place professionally. Also I have a much clearer vision of what I want my long-term work life to be.
- I was a bit scared about turning 30 but it turns out I like this age very much and am totally zen about it.
- I got certified as a professional webdesigner and I am really proud about it.
- I didn’t put on weight, and every year that passes without me falling back into my old bad eating habits is a victory.
- I have been happy most of the time, and that is a good thing
So I wish you all a very nice New Year’s Eve (please, don’t drink and drive) and a very happy New Year.

A couple of days ago, I received an e-mail inviting me to use a new website that happens to be a Christmas Gift Finder.
I guess we are all the same at this time of the year: not knowing what to offer, and not really knowing what to answer when asked what we would like to get. Well, of course, I know I dream of a Mercedes, a house, an iPhone and many other things, but I don’t think my second cousins would spend that much on my Christmas gift. So I gave that finder a try.
The principle is simple: it is based on the “visual DNA” principle. You pick a picture from a series related to a theme, and all the pictures you chose determine your profile. Hence, the perfect gift list for you. Including things that cost less than 10€!
I must say most of the things that came out were actually my taste. So why not give it a try, it works for the USA and UK – and you can also invite friends to take the test and then see their list!
What more do we want?
