2010 in review part two
This is likely to be my last entry of 2010, so I thought I'd do part two of my year end wrap-up.
1) Where did you begin 2010?
At my house with Chris.
2) What was your status by Valentine's Day?
With Chris.
3) Were you in school (anytime this year)?
The end of my senior year at Syracuse.
4) How did you earn your money?
Freelancing and my full-time gig down in Maryland.
5) Did you have to go to the hospital?
Happily, no.
6) Did you have any encounters with the police?
Yep-- the first day I had my car, I got pulled over for having two license plates, my grandfather's old plates and my new ones. Everything ended up fine, but the whole thing made me feel pretty badass.
7) Where did you go on holiday?
To the shore for Labor Day.
8) What did you purchase that was over $500?
A new computer, a MacBook Pro who I named Sterling.
9) Did you know anybody who got married?
One of my sister's oldest friends got married on Black Friday.
10) Did you know anybody who passed away?
Thankfully, no.
11) Have you run into anybody you left high school with?
Just the other day I ran into a kid I was in art class with at a neighbor's Christmas party. He thought I'd gone to Tyler, and he told me he was going to be a chiropractor, then ignored me for the rest of the night. I do not miss high school.
12) Did you move anywhere?
I moved back into my South Campus apartment at the beginning of the year, moved back home after the end of the semester, moved down to Maryland for my job, and then moved back here after I left the job. Will move to New York about a week into the new year.
13) What sporting events did you go to?
I watched the World Cup, but I didn't go to any of the games.
14) What concerts/shows did you go to?
Some of Chris's concerts.
15) Are you registered to vote?
Yes, but my absentee ballot wasn't counted. Boo.
16) Who did you want to win Tila Tequila?
Okay, I think this has to be the last year for this question.
17) Where do you live now?
With my parents, but like I said before, I'll be in New York in a couple weeks.
18) Describe your birthday.
Pastabilities bread with candles in it and their famous sauce, a long CMD 450 class, ice cream cake and Toy Story Legos.
19) What's the one thing you thought you would never do but did in 2010?
Galley.
20) What has been your favorite moment?
Finding out that I have this job in New York.
21) What's something you learned about yourself?
Just having a job does not fix all of my woes.
22) Any new additions to your family?
Dan and Marissa are officially engaged, so he will be my brother-in-law soon enough. And my cousin is pregnant with her second kid, so I have another addition on the way.
23) What was your best month?
I would say April. It was the toughest month, but the most rewarding, because I got my Capstone and my portfolio finished. Plus I had my birthday.
24) What music will you remember 2010 by?
Allie's compilation The Best of CMD
Fun.'s album Aim and Ignite
25) Who has been your best drinking buddy?
Kate and I would drink every Friday while we watched Say Yes to the Dress. Either rum and Cokes or Smirnoff Ices.
26) Made new friends?
Lea, while I was down in Maryland.
27) Best new friend?
Same best friends, they're just scattered.
28) Favorite Night out?
Two words: Stoop Night.
29) Any regrets?
Maryland left me with some, but I think it all worked out for the best.
30) How many girlfriends/boyfriends have you had?
Just one. Christopher.
31) Any memorable kisses?
When Chris picked me up in Rochester. Very cute.
33) Which season was the best?
All of them had their ups and downs... mostly downs... so it's hard to say.
34) How many nights out of 365 days did you not remember?
I really wish I didn't remember some of the ones I do.
35) If you could would you redo the whole year?
Absolutely not.
**In the Year 2011**
1. What do you hope to accomplish?
Keep my job, do well at my job, find a place to live, make a home for myself, maybe start another graphic novel, and start my long career in design.
2. How old will you be turning?
Twenty-three. Nothing special.
3. What are you looking forward to most this year?
Definitely the job. And Marissa's wedding!
4. Any last thoughts on 2010?
I guess you needed to happen, but I can't say I'm sorry you're done. On to bigger and better things.
