<p>On the slim chance that anyone still checks this site, yes, I am still here. &nbsp;I took the entire month of January (and much of February) as a time to reflect on what I want to achieve from this blog. &nbsp;Turns out, I missed writing here more than I thought I would. &nbsp;I missed sharing the ups and downs of my daily life, as boring as it may be. &nbsp;</p>
<p>I didn't miss those pesky pictures though. &nbsp;These days, I feel like I am taking more pictures of things that actually interest me, as opposed to rushing around to find something to fulfill my Project 365 requirement of a picture a day. &nbsp;</p>
<p>So on this day, February 14, Valentine's Day, Chinese New Year, or as I like to call it,<em> the last day of my 20's</em>, I have decided that I will no longer abandon this site. &nbsp;I don't promise to post daily, but I do promise to post when I get the whim. &nbsp;It may be interesting to me but boring as heck to you, but I will do my best not to miss the high points and the few low points. &nbsp;</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://theroadtohome.net/journal/rss-comments-entry-6692094.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>365/365: Done.
