(no subject)
I nabbed a New Years quiz from juliet_a because she's right, it's a good way to recap the year.
1. If you could give just one word for '06 what would it be?
*squee* - I think I did a lot of squeeing this year ;)
2. What are your favorite memories of '06?
Making lots of new friends, meeting Browncoats, numerous Sarah Slean shows, art show, and poetry reading, SFX, getting a real job, moving out, becoming a "photographer" ;)
3. From 1-10 how would you rate this year?
8.5 - always room for improvment but it's been pretty darn good.
4. If you could change one thing about '06 what would it be?
Probably spend less money lol
5. If you could rewind back to one moment what would it be?
At this moment? I'll take any given Sarah Slean concert/event
6. Best vacation you went on?
I didn't take a real vacation vacation this year... but I think I really enjoyed 2 things. 1. road trip to London in October. and 2. When we thought the London show was happening so I used vacation days and then ended up hanging out in TO with Joel, Nomi and Andrea (and sometimes Neal) for a few days :)
Friends
1. Did you make any new friends?
Browncoats!
2. Do you think any of your friends have changed?
Sure, everyone changes.
3. Do you still have the same friends you had in the beginning of the year?
Yup, I think everyone's still here and we've picked up some new people along the way :)
4. Who would you say were your best friends overall this year?
This question feels like grade 4 all over again. I don't have "best" friends but I have people who I know will be in my life forever and always, they know who they are :)
5. Where did you spend most of your time?
Probably working.
Life
1. Do you have any regrets for this year?
I don't think that I have any really big ones, everyone has something they regret but nothing earth shattering is coming to mind. Perhaps I've repressed ;)
2. Has a lot changed in your life?
Yes, I have my first "real" job. I moved out to a place that is not a University residence of any sort. I have started actually planning for my future :)
3. Do you think you have changed?
Yes, I keep getting happier. I used to be so grumpy. I just feel like I'm soaring some days now :)
4. Do you have a New Year's Resolution? What is it?
I'm working on them.... I'll post again this morning before I leave ;)
Relationships
1. Did you break any relationships?
Nope.
2. Did you meet someone special?
Could be... who knows ;)
3. Have you had any "firsts" this year?
I'm making this totally not a relationship question and sticking with first real job. I've been working since I was 16 and volunteeing long before that but I'm finally in a stable work situation and in a place where am able to advance.
