Busy. Busy. Busy.
But happy :o)
1. What did you do in 2006 that you'd never done before?:
Had a nose bleed, broke up with someone, sang kareoke, gone out and not come home, sniffed poppers, saw morrissey, held a baby, let somoene on speed drive me home, made a film, had a wee behind a tree, spent over £50 on someone, danced like woah, got really stoned, ate cabbage and liked it etc etc...
2. Did you keep your New Year's resolutions, and will you make more for next year?:
I make lots of secret unconscious ones like "From now on I'm going to stop being a dick" but I never stick to them or give them much thought after the initial moment. I'm pretty happy with myself at the time being, theres nothing I particularly dislike about myself or my lifestyle aside from the fact that I have to go to college.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?:
No, although lots of people I went to school with are currently pregnant. It's terrifying.
4. Did anyone close to you die?:
No, I purposely make friends with people who look as though they'll out-live me.
5. What countries did you visit?:
Same as
last year and
the year before that. Although in february I'll be going to New York, but that's in 2007 so telling you this is comepletely pointless
6. What would you like to have in 2007 that you lacked in 2006?:
Notoriety, still.
Fun, lots of.
Money, finally.
7. What dates from 2005 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?:
No particular dates stick in my mind. I'll always remember how miserable I was whilst recording and editing my first film though, I'd never been so upset in my whole life. Even after it was done I went home and cried, it wasnt a very fun time.
Oh, and also the breakup nastiness...nuff said?
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?:
Cutting out the people in my life who tried to stifle and control me.

I've been constantly ill this year, which is very unusual for me.
11. What was the best thing you bought?:
Dunno, a coat that actually keeps me warm? I've not had enough money to buy all the things that would make me exceptionally happy.
12. Whose behaviour merited celebration?:
Mine, for once. I made myself proud this year from both an accademic and emotional point of view.
13. Whose behaviour made you appalled and depressed?:
Saying this will get me in shit and will more than likely cause another round of bitch-fits, but I don't care...
Anths (post-breakup) childish, obsessive and retarded behaviour has really pissed me off throughout the last 6 months.

Ex-boyfriends. Cigarettes. JD & Cokes.

40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
Now I do as I please, and I lie through my teeth
Someone might get hurt, but it won't be me
I should probably feel cheap, but I just feel free
And a little bit empty
No it isn't so hard to get close to me
There will be no arguments, we'll always agree
And I'll try and be kind when I ask you to leave
We'll both take it easy
Bright Eyes - Take it Easy (Love Nothing)
To catch up though;
Morrissey was spectacular. I was crushed between hundreds of sweaty old men, but I was sooooo close to him. I lost my shoes in the 'pit' and spent 3 songs being molested by some geggy twat with grabby hands, but I think it was worth it in the end.
Christmas was wii fueled. Im stuck on zelda though...
And New Years Eve was rather enjoyable. Some terrifying drunk man with broken hands approached me on the way home and told me stories about how when he was in Vietnam his pregnant wife got blown up and he had to piece her back together. I had to bite my tongue until it bled to try and stop myself laughing in his face becasue the man genuinely believed his own bullshit and also looked like a murderer.
My high point of the conversation was when he took the towel he was wearing around his neck and dangled it infront of my face exclaiming "See this!? It's green! That means I'm in the army!"
