That '2012 in Review' meme...
1. What did you do in 2012 that you'd never done before?
Gym! Running! Lost weight specifically from 93 kilos to 87 kilos! Sung a solo at a wedding! (albeit brief). Came off brain meds! etc.
2.Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
Pfft resolutions.
3.Did anyone close to you give birth?
Many births in the dancing scene. :)
4.Did anyone close to you die?
Not that I know of. I haven't checked them all though.
5.What countries did you visit?
New Zealand? That counts as a country right.
6.What would you like to have in 2013 that you lacked in 2012?
Towards the end of 2012 I fell off the wagon a bit mental-health wise, but I'm already working hard on that again. Self-confidence maybe? But that'll come naturally in time if I keep doing healthy things.
7.What date from 2012 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
I would need to have a memory.
8.What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Fitness-related stuff I'd say.
9.What was your biggest failure?
Some mental-discipline related things.
10.Did you suffer illness or injury?
Sure why not. If you're not suffering some you're not living enough.
11.What was the best thing you bought?
Um... OH MAGIC CARDS SO MANY MAGIC CARDS
12.Whose behaviour merited celebration?
My god, all of my friends. The ones that visited me in hospital, Adil for supporting me and getting me through the last week of Winter school without killing myself.
13.Whose behaviour made you appalled and/or depressed?
Quite a few choristers. One dancer. One of neither.
14.Where did most of your money go?
Eating out, which has since been reduced.
15.What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Supanova was pretty high up there. KITTEN. Um, probably other stuff.
16.What song will always remind you of 2012?
Probably whatever we sang at IV.
17.Compared to this time last year, are you:
i.happier or sadder? This time last year I was pretty much a zombie, so I count that as a win.
ii.thinner or fatter? See above. Weight loss while maintaining physical strength, so I'm doing pretty well.
iii.richer or poorer? Way poorer, working on it.
18.What do you wish you'd done more of?
Hobbies and practicing stupid tricks. Never enough time :) Mental discipline.
19.What do you wish you'd done less of?
Sometimes maybe video games, but that seems to be going okay.
20.How did you spend Christmas?
Morning with theladylillith's grandparents and family, day with the kitten, dinner with my family, and evening with accrues Boy, Casey, playing D&D. Pretty much the best Christmas ever.
21.Did you fall in love in 2012?
Nope.
22.How many one-night stands?
None.
23.What was your favourite TV program?
Heck I don't know. I watched a lot of tv. 30 Rock, Dexter, True Blood, Angel, Buffy wait this goes on quite a while.
24.Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?
Hate's a lot of effort. I'm no longer friends with a few people. Some others I'm going to avoid a lot more than I used to having had a few reminders of their persona or something.
25.What was the best book you read?
Um the first Game of Thrones book and I'm only halfway through it #embarrassed

Don't know!

The feelings back.

Effortless emotional stability. :)
29.What was your favourite film of this year?
The Avengers!
30.What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
I TURNED 30 and there was a party and it was awesome. We played with so much dry ice.
31.What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
One million dollars.
32.How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2011?
Pants. Oh I got a couple of waistcoats and they make me 35% sexier or something.
33.What kept you sane?
Time and effort and the ability to not attribute sanity-granting to some external source.
34.Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?
Oh. Um. Oh, Felicia day maybe? She's pretty cute.
35.What political issue stirred you the most?
I'm sure there were some but nothing springs to mind at the moment.
36.Who did you miss?
Hmm. My oldest friend maybe? Maybe things will pick up now.

Helen? Casey? Maybe a couple of people from IV.

Can't get lax when things are going well.
