We are only a few days shy of the New Year. It’s now time to chuck out your 2013 calendars into the recycling bin and shred your 2013 diaries because the fourteenth year of the 21st century is soon to make its presence felt. This past year has seen many big changes at the Half-Eaten Mind. We’ve adopted a new look, created a Twitter account, self-published a book, moved home and increased our turnover of articles. We’ve collaborated with contributors big and small, and been nominated for heaps of blogging awards. In 2013, we have really picked our brains to bring you the best in news, views, features and photos. It has certainly being a very good and productive year for us.
Now to mark the transition into 2014, and as the old year draws to a close, I have created this special gallery of New Year 2014 images to celebrate not only the beginning of a new year, but new opportunities, new possibilities and the welcoming of friends/readers new and old. May 2014 be a year to remember.
All images are drawn from external sites, mainly those offering free wallpapers for desktop computers or to tag people in on Facebook. I have not created any of these images and all copyrights, thanks and credits rest with the original graphic artists and websites hosting them. This is simply a collection of images that I thought were particularly pleasing to the eye, had a good message or captured the party atmosphere of New Year’s Day.
2014 (MMXIV) will be a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar, the 2014th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 14th year of the 3rd millennium, the 14th year of the 21st century, and the 5th year of the 2010s decade (from Wikipedia).

Hola Halfeatenmind,
buen y práctico post, gracias.
Hace poco que nos seguimos mutuamente y es el primer comentario que te dejo. Primero quisiera felicitarte por el blog pues creo que haces un buen trabajo. Tu esfuerzo merece la pena, de verdad.
Tenemos por delante un nuevo año y seguro que seguiremos en contacto. Quiero felicitarte el 2014 con una frase que encontré y es muy adecuada para los tiempos de crisis en lo que todavía estamos inmersos:
La vida te da mil razones para llorar, demuestra que tienes mil y una para soñar. Haz de tu vida un sueño y de tu sueño una realidad.
¡Feliz año nuevo 2014!

The name of your blog totally cracks me up. That’s funny.
I like the “calendar” part of this post, although, in a Matrix-like twist I just mentioned on my site, this might actually be 2008. Happy New Year! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbKVis3tJOM

Hi wildninja,
Thank you for your visit to my blog. It is certainly an unusual name, especially for a news blog, but it has a special history to it, both for the blog and for me personally. In the Ethiopian calendar it’s still 2006, so the Matrix must seem very real in Addis Ababa lol
I will follow your blog as of now, and look forward to reading more from you.
