Total fanfictions written:16 fanfictions
15 Merlin Fanfictions
1 Supernatural Fanfiction
Joined Merlin fandom (to my reckoning) January 2nd 2012 when I wrote a comment!fic " Why Dragons Shouldn't Gossip."
Longest fanfiction of the year, my paperlegends fanfic "Deja Vu" - just over 40k
Unfinished fics from 2012: Different Realities (Merlin, comment!fic)
Personal Accomplishments/Highlights:
- Graduated with my BA from Dalhousie University
- Got an internship in a museum in my field
- First international trip to England (finally used that passport!)
- Road-trip #1: Driving from Halifax to Ottawa post-graduation with family
- Road-trip #2: Driving from Ottawa to Niagara Falls & Windsor with best friend
- Becoming Maid of Honour for other best friend's wedding
- First trip to Alberta (for my sister's wedding)
- My sister's wedding!
- Health kick = losing 60lbs and feeling healthier and happier than I have in years
Last Picture of 2012 nbsp; First Picture of 2012
(Friend getting married, friend that I road-tripped with, me) nbsp; (cousin, me, cousin, sister, mother) nbsp nbsp;
~ We have an annual New Years party, hence the hats and stuff in both photos ~
Hope for 2013:
- keep up in my healthy living
- write for three challenges (probably paperlegends, sassy_minibang, and one unknown ...)
- NYC road-trip with my road-trip friend this summer
- decide to either go back to school or find a permanent job - both are good and either would make me happy
- visit my friends and family in neighbouring cities more often
My livejournal has really changed in one year. Last year at this time, I had no Merlin fandom friends (who now make up the majority of people I know on livejournal), and I hardly used livejournal (hence my username - since I figured this account would be of little use to me). It's been a great year, and everyone here has been so amazing and welcoming and warm and friendly and beyond what I could have hoped for. So group hugs all around! I hope everyone else had a great 2012, and I wish nothing but the best for 2013!
