Since I won't be around later on, and being on time is impossible because of timezoens anyway, I'll give you a little 'review' of the past year, as well as an outlook on what to expect in 2011 
I. Review of 2010:
1. Life
2010 has been quite a troublesome year; main source of trouble was school, and especially the people in my class. Finally I had to accept that they have never been and will never be my friends. Sad thing, but now that I know it I do feel better.
'nother thing was my 3-day hospital stay (or was it just for 2 days? Can't remember, didn't get enough sleep ><). It was my first time to stay there, and I did not like it at all.
2. BZPower
Awesome as always. I want to thank you all for the support, and the many hours spent with overall nice and cool people. ^^ You had the time to read my countless blog entries about how horrible I feel my life is at the moment, and gave helpful advise. I can not tell you how grateful I am...
However, I was not as active this year as in the years before. I guess I took too many breaks... And didn't do as much BIONICLE-themed artwork. Shame, shame...
3. Art
Art-wise 2010 was quite a good year; I improved on drawing male characters, and decided that this year I'd focus on a more semi-realistic drawing style. Surprisingly, my Chibi style developed simultaneously; the more I learned about how things look, the easier abstracting became.
Taking the job as illustrator for my school's students' magazine turned into a job as Comic-maker; and by being forced to draw at leasst one comic per month I learned a lot about graphic storytelling, panelling and after-editing with photoshop.
2010 was also the very first year where art class at school was helpful. Due to that I now understood the basic way of working with Inkscape, as well as other things
II. Outlook on 2011
This is gonna be short, I promise 
My main goals for 2011 are:
- improving art-wise (or course)
- being more active on BZPower again
- finish school (OMG final school year starts fall 2011; I'm scared already)
- even more art
- being a happier person :]
*****
So, I wanna wish you all a wonderful 2011!
