1. What did you do in 2007 that you'd never done before?
I did loads of great things this year but I'm having trouble thinking of what I have NEVER done before. I saw San Fran, Aspen, Boston. Trained for a marathon - and got a knee injury. Both of those were new experiences :)
2. Did you keep your new year's resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I technically made a resolution a few years ago that was meant to be life long, which is each year visit one new country and 2 new US cities. Well I saw about 4 new US cities so I guess that makes up for it. I'm saving my vacation time for a longer asian holiday in 08.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
A few friends but no besties.
4. Did anyone close to you die?

St. Patty's - such a hilarious trip, July 14 - 1st annual case race, Sept 7 - Vegas trip to see Ash, Dec 7 - got into grad school!
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Not getting fired the first 8 months of this year was pretty remarkable. I came in late and hammered on various occasions. Haha. I was pretty good about working out the entire year. I got into grad school, made loads of friends, threw some killer parties. All in all just about every week this year was something great.
