Seriously Serious about 2009

Nothing beats being in a rut then making goals for the new year and being inspired to accomplish them. Since the beginning of December, Muntedkowhai had enjoyed constant sales and now I'm coming off that high and a day without sales= woe me! I know, I'm totally ranting and shouldn't be. Why I should put all that energy into creating new designs, I mean, I have new vintage buttons and charms and chains to work with now! Alright, rant stops here!!

I will divide my goals and put them into categories that are most important to me:

*Love

Eat my words at the end of 2009. If words are eaten, I'll be single.

*Muntedkowhai

Be one of Etsy's featured seller or be featured in a printed magazine!

*Science

Practice science in all honesty and cut no corners. Publish that Myeloid Derived Suppressor cells paper.

*The bank

Save save save save save save!!!!!!!!! Specifically, save over $5000 for rainy days.





This year besides going to PokPok for dinner with the olds, I don't really feel the urge to go drink and celebrate. It's kinda sad but I've got work the next day and I have so very much to do for Muntedkowhai that a whole day hung over seems to be quite wasted. (No puns intended!) The least I can do is dress for the last day for 2008 which is why I'm wearing this little number to work:

2008 just ended so very very quickly!

Celebrate safely everyone and Happy New Year!

The Internetz <3 s this week:

I've been so touched by the numerous comments left by participants who wanted their very own Admiral on Leave necklace giveaway that (insert any darn good adjective here) Traci from Bliss has put together ! A huge huge thank you to everyone and especially Mrs French! The winner has been picked and I'm waiting for the address so that I can send it off. Eep excitment!

Earlier this week, Refinery29 wrote a snippet up about Muntedkowhai necklaces that sums up how I wear my own necklaces: plain tshirt and understated overall look and one detailed accessory.

To cap off the week, Melissa loves the Aoetearoa necklace! That is just too super. Her collage of colours and texture is done so wonderfully that it is an art in itself.
