End Of Year Meme - I'm hoping for some interesting answers (interesting to me, that is. I can't pretend any of youse will be interested :D )
1. Will you be looking for a new job?
Nope. V happy in this. Unless a midyear holiday gets me fired, which I hope not. Or I kill the silly 19yo at work, perhaps.
2. Will you be looking for a new relationship?
Another nope. Yay for the happy.
3. New house?
All no's so far. How boring. But I hope not - I'm still trying to settle!
4. What will you do different in '07?
Hopefully not have as much depression > which leads to > camping, climbing, bushwalking, photo-ing more. More time with friends than even this year (when I think I did ok). Better to the boy.
5. New Years resolution?
Man, I hate these things so on principle, none. Maybe just to go thru my 43things list and get there!
6. What will you not be doing in '07?
Ooh, tough. Being depressed. Get kicked around.
7. Any trips planned?
Yup! Yay! NZ in middle of year, then S America, Galapagos, Europe, Nepal (volunteering) about a year from now!! Woohoo!
8. Wedding plans?
HA! My mother would strangle me. Just kidding. Sort of.
9. What's on your calendar?
Mostly white. I do internets calendar.
10. What can't you wait for?
Seeing my family on the 8th of Jan! Finding a dream SLR for a great price and FIIIIIIINALLY getting it!
11. What would you like to see happen different?
So many things. Not much in my own small life, but lots elsewhere. Environ stuff mostly.
12. What about yourself will you be changing?
More motivated hopefully, getting out and being more independent still. More clued up at work. Stronger (physically and mentally).. Less of a consumerist I hope (and throwing/giving enough more stuff away).
13. What happened in '06 that you didn't think would ever happen?
Lost a lot of [bad] friends. Family acquiring a new birdy after the old one was killed. Actively quitting my job for a different/better one.
14. Will you be nicer to the people you care about?
This is something I try every day, so, yes.
15. Will you dress differently this year than you did in '06?
Well, I guess so, since I don't have to wear office worky clothes every day. But other than the work front, nup!
16. Will you start or quit drinking?
I don't think this part of me will change. I don't do much as it is, and I'm happy with my [low] consumption levels. :)
17. Will you better your relationship with your family?
Not explicitly - we have an awesome relationship now and I wouldn't want to change that. Just talk to Dad more often I think. I often don't catch him as he's sleeping/at work.
18. Will you do charity work?
I did try a bit in 06, but I think this year will be a year for me. I mean, I've been doing it 97-00 so I am not feeling guilty yet. Is that bad? I think I've gotta get myself on track first. Just for the moment. I guess I'm still feeling a little put off from my last experience and lack of support in that role.
19. Will you go to bars?
Nah, prolly not. Don't really do that so much :)
20. Will you be nice to people you don't know?
Yeah, always am.
21. Do you expect '07 to be a good year for you?
Bloody better be!! 100% anticipation, 0% expectations. That said, I will work at it being a great time for me and ppl around me.
22. How much did you change from this time last year til now?
Oh wow, sooooooooooooooo much.
23. Do you plan on having a child?
HA! Not likely [as in, 1 000 000% sure I won't be]. I know for sure Mum would strangle me if I popped that little announcement out!
24. Will you still be friends with the same people you are friends with now?
Heh, considering the answer to #22, one can never be quite sure, can one?
25. Major lifestyle changes?
Just more active. Not major changes.
26. Will you be moving?
Don't reckon so.
27. What will you make sure doesn't happen in '07 that happened in '06?
Gettin so fat. LOL kidding. It's hard to say - I am who I am because of all that's gone before, and I'm happy with that. Hell at the time but I wouldn't change it. So I can't say I'd rule out any kind of experiences, but I HOPE that shit don't recur (with bad friends etc).
28. What are your New Years Eve plans?
Finishing work aaaaaaaaaaaaaand...... doing whatever it is that I will be making up probably that night! Woot!!
29. Will you have someone to kiss at midnight?
Oh my yes. My beautiful funny gorgeous sweet man :D
30. One wish for '07?
Too hard. TO ENJOY IT < that is my purely ME wish. Other than that, 'world peace' and all that stuff.
