01.01.2007 – Monday 1 January – The year of what?

• For the past few years, I have given each year a focus—last year was the year of work, when I got my first full-time job, the year before was the year of Bronwen. I’m not, however, sure what the focus of this year should be—I’m still with Bronwen, I’m still working, nothing much has really changed. I’m planning to do a few small trips this year, and go overseas, possibly next year, but they’re not really the focus of the year. I’ll have to think about it.

Dawn

• Bronwen, Mum and I sit with several thousand other people and watch the sunrise.

Night

• I attend the closing fire ceremony, followed by volunteering.
