Stolen from slumber
- What did you do in 2011 that you'd never done before?
Wrote a 31k fic, complete, within several months. It was also het :) - Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I…didn’t really make any. - Did anyone close to you give birth?
No. - Did anyone close to you die?
No, thank God. - What countries did you visit?
Russia, Italy (!!!) - What would you like to have in 2012 that you lacked in 2011?
A job. Which is kinda sad because I don’t exactly WANT to work, but, yea, realistically, I know I need to start wracking up the work experience. - What date from 2011 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
I’m horrible at remembering dates, so I don’t think there is one such date, although the day I signed my lease in early January this year was a pretty big deal. There’s also October 28 (I think), which was mostly a good day but is memorable for negative reasons. - What was your biggest achievement of the year?
No clue. Lol. Look at #1 - that’s probably it. Which is a sad achievement, yes. - What was your biggest failure?
Not getting a job, the grades I got this term, and not using my head well enough on 10/28. - Did you suffer illness or injury?
Thankfuly, nothing major. - What was the best thing you bought?
Ellie Goulding concert tickets. - Whose behavior merited celebration?
My TA, Brian’s. He was a total lifesavor. - Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Haha, I wouldn’t be able to name a specific person. At least, no one in my personal life. - Where did most of your money go?
*shrug* Rent? - What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Going to Italy OMG! - What song will always remind you of 2011?
I download too much music to pick a single song lol. - Compared to this time last year, are you:
i. happier or sadder? I…don’t want to say sadder. More anxious/worried though, and not happier.
ii. thinner or fatter? Same
iii. richer or poorer? Same - What do you wish you'd done more of?
Socialized, studied (especially this last term, especially for LSATs)… - What do you wish you'd done less of?
Procrastinated. - How will you be spending Christmas New Years?
With the family, having a big dinner, watching festive tv stuff, presents after midnight, then fireworks until late-late into the night! - Who did you spend the most time on the phone with?
Umm…my mom *sheepish* - Did you fall in love in 2011?

Oh god a lot of stuff lol. - What was your favorite film of this year?
Probably DH2. - What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
Ooooh my birthday was fun! I turned 20. I was up at Big Bear - a mountain resort sort of thing - with a ton of people in this huge fancy house and we partied all weekend. It was great. - What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?

Benjamin Sadler, as always. - What political issue stirred you the most?

Lots of awesome people! Especially those I went to Big Bear with :) - Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2011:
Count your shots, you may think you’re not drinking a lot, but you could be very wrong if you’re not counting :p - Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
Hah, I think an entire year of a life is too complex and multi-faceted for a single song lyric. I’d have to make a fanmix :p
