Apart from the odd iPhone picture I hadn't taken many pictures during the autumn concentrating on making music and "beats" instead, but two weeks ago I decided to scan the films that had been lying around the house since visiting Berlin for my birthday in September.

Workout Journal
I've always had a soft spot for Moleskin Diaries, even though the reality has always been that each time I buy one I use them for about 2 weeks before they go into a draw never to be used again and thrown away during next year's spring clean.
But once again the temptation got the better of me and I bought a Fitness Diary with J in Berlin, which up until now had remained unused. With it being the new year and we're both feeling very motivated we've decided to start filling it in, and I made my first entry today.
New Year's Eve 2012 Party Playlist
At last night's New Year's Eve party I was asked to put on some music, so through together this impromptu Party Rockin' playlist with my favorite dance tracks of the year and some old favorites.
Until today I also never knew Abba had a Happy New Year, which went on as close to Midnight as possible.
National Pizza Day
If you didn't know already, Swedish people eat more pizza on New Years Day than any other meal, with Kebab Meat being their favorite topping.
So what better way to finish off the "Biggest Chillout day of the Year", with the nation's favorite.
Love Actually is all around
Since we've been together me and J have a christmas tradition where we watched Love Actually together.
Other NYR's
As well as the fore-mentioned Instagram 365 project, here are the other New Year Resolutions I promised myself while sitting at the dinner table last night thinking about what changes I could make for 2013.
- Keep a fitness journal.
- Always stay on the 4th notch on my belt buckle.
- Cook healthier.
- Release a dance record.
- Play a gig with my rock band "Widget"
- Play a dance gig, either solo or with Sound of Pictures.
- Blog more (yes that means here)
Instagram 365
It was in 2009 when I first decided to do a 365 project, which was decided after buying a new Leica D-Lux 4 for christmas and sitting on the sofa in a Parisian apartment waiting for my friends to get up on New Years Day.
- The app gives you a great way to promote your photos using the App.
- It's quick and easy to do take and post pictures with only a few filters to play with.
- There are many services out there for putting your pictures together into a nice looking book, which will also look nice as everything is square shaped.
