What I Did in 2008 (roughly), Thanks to internetnoodles.
What did you do in 2008 that you'd never done before?
-Became pretty content with my life.
-Stuck with something for the entire year.
-Actively changed my life instead of just bitching about it all.
-Confronted my biological father, got closure.
-Bought a car, on my own, all the money upfront.
-Got my nipple pierced.
Did you keep your New Year's resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I actually kept mine from last New Year's: lose weight, get a job, be happy. I think I might go for a little more weight loss and try not to let others' opinions sway me from what I really want.
Did anyone close to you give birth?
My best friend gave birth to her baby boy. Mixed feelings on my part.
Did anyone close to you die?
No, and shut your whore mouth before you jinx me!
Which countries did you visit?
The one I'm in. I visit other countries by watching the news or movies.
What would you like to have in 2009 that you lacked in 2008?
Willpower and motivation.
Three Enduring Memories of 2008:
-Being sick and watching The Office for the first time.
-Getting hit on at work and at Wal-Mart. o_0
-Slipping on pants that were three sizes smaller than I used to wear.
What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Sliding on the almost-up-to-your-knee boots that I've wanted for years. My legs were too fat to fit in them before. ^__^
What was your biggest failure?
Procrastination all fucking year.
Did you suffer illness or injury?
I got sick. Constantly. Lots 'o migraines.
What was the best thing you bought?
Cigarettes a few hours ago.
Where did most of your money go?
Stupid shit that I don't really need or want, family and friends.
Which songs will always remind you of 2008?
"You Can't Always Get What You Want" - Rolling Stones
The Office Theme - duh
"Bad Moon Rising" - Creedence Clearwater Revival
"1234" - Feist
"Stuttering" - Ben's Brother

Writing.
What do you wish you'd done less of?
Online shopping and surfing the web.

The Office, Moral Orel, Metalocalypse...I love so many....
Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?

More sex.
What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
Jeez....Um, I turned 23 in January, so my family bought me a bouquet of dark chocolate-dipped strawberries. I mostly just hung out with family.
What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
Finding a SO. :(
Who was the best new person you met?
I'm assuming you mean in RL. Probably my best friend Nikki.
Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2008.
I am the only person who is holding me back and making me feel sorry for / bad about myself.
Quote a song lyric that sums up your year.
"You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need"
