2009 meme
Stolen from vkikay :))
1. What did you do in 2009 that you'd never done before?
-- a lot. for one, I finally let go of a potential wonderful, beautiful something which I previously hoped as something beautiful which is why I haven't let go of it for years. This year, I have finally done it. And it felt good. :) And then, there's the visiting of evacuation centers which I personally think aren't hygienic to live in, but people have no choice but to live in them; there's the volunteering for a week to help devastated people, making a professor a tight-buddy; trying and failing to take blood from someone, experimenting on shit (literally), and a lot more. XD
