My head hurts
Back to the grindstone tomorrow, here's a meme.
39 questions about 2009
1. What did you do in 2009 that you’d never done before?
Got a job :D
2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
Well, I did play about with others, and had to change for LANs, but mostly it was 1440*900. I need a new monitor....or two ¬_¬. I have no idea what my resolutions were for 2009, I'm sure if you look back far enough in my lj they might be there, but otherwise meh. I have new ones for 2010, they are things like be a gent and drive a lamborghini, the former of those being the more difficult.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
Nope, one became pregnant though ^_^
4. Did anyone close to you die?
In terms of proximity, I have knifed lots of people on Modern Warfare 2, so they died. However, IRL, no, which I'm quite thankful for.
5. What countries did you visit?
Stayed here all year. Would like to go abroad again.
6. What would you like to have in 2010 that you lacked in 2009?
More money, that won't be difficult. Hopefully a car/place of my own/eye lasers.

21st September, started working. Brilliant.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Getting a job ^_^

Being unemployed for the majority of the year.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
A bit of a cold.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
Gonna go with the new computer case, that made attending a LAN so much easier.
12. Whose behavior merited celebration?
I'm going to go with my brother, for making a rational decision about what he wants to do with his future with regards to changing to a less demanding course after illness made the demanding course much more demanding.
13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Oh, this is a rant in itself. I'll just say that I hope everyone has been smart enough to see where they have gone wrong this year, I most certainly do. In fact yeah, I'm going to put myself at the top of this list.

Alcohol, Transport, Food, Computer and a few haircuts.
