This list isn't very precise due to the fact that I got lazy in July and stopped keeping track of what films I watched, so this might not be complete, but after wracking my brains and not being able to think of anything else, I'm just going to assume this is everything. :D In the course of the year, I rewatched The Social Network (several times ;___;), Inception, (500) Days of Summer, Easy A, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Jumper, Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang, and Despicable Me.
I also rediscovered my love for tv shows and watched tons and tons of them. HOW DID I EVER LIVE WITHOUT TV SHOWS I ASK YOU. I don't think I could cope without them anymore; they're my ultimate comfort. I didn't make a list, but I easily watched about 15 seasons of all sorts of things.

I travelled rather a lot this year; I went to Paris twice, I finally got to visit London, I was in Manchester, Liverpool, Chester, and York, and I travelled on a ferry for the first time in my life, which was really exciting (even in spite of the seasickness). All in all, it was a great year, even though I was in a bad spot every now and then, but I tackled some of my problems, and 2012 will be the year of coming to grips with them. It's also going to be a year of adventures! I'm going to finish school and move out (for the second time, but this time on my own), and I seriously cannot wait to start uni. Inbetween, I hope I'll be able to go to London (for funtimes and marmfishery!) and Paris (for work). I don't know whether everything will work out, but I'm certainly determined to try. OPTIMISM FTW.
Thank you all for being fabulous friends and for making my life all the time. <3 Here's to 2012!
