What's one thing that you hope to do or accomplish before the end of this year?

Make something. Anything. Well, nearly anything. I don't think I would be satisfied with a summer-camp ashtray or something like that.

I have this generalized urge to create, always have, and yet I'm not really creative. I'm not crafty. And I don't write very well anymore due, I'm guessing, to nearly four years of being almost completely out of practice. My programming skills seem to be limited to hacking up something already existing into a novel shape (take a look at my Frankensteinian amalgam of Wordpress template hacks and plugins sometime). And design—gods, I'm so hopeless with design, art, photographic composition…

Generally, I suck, and have no talents or skills. So I guess my goal for this year is to prove myself wrong about that. Either that, or go to the gym; if I'm going to be dull, I might as well be pretty.
