Retrospect of 2009

Although this is a relatively mundane topic for a blog, it is ineluctable to be written down as well. Looking back to my 2009′s resolution set out 364 days ago, not a very strong finish I have committed. The only purpose for such a write-up is very personal: I want to record it before all memories faded.

My ranking system:

• Not done is nothing or almost nothing has been achieved on this item.
• Progress is the item has not been fully finished. But some progresses have been made so far.
• Done is the item has been finished or on the track. No more extra efforts are required for it.
