So Long to 2005
Nothing new from R as of yet. I did just get home yesterday, so we'll give it some time. I decided to review my year (inspired by Crystal) - I know you all need some reading material, so here it is! 2005 at a glance....
1. What did you do in 2005 that you'd never done before?
Lived with 5 complete strangers. Graduated from university! Visited a buffalo farm. Got my wisdom teeth out. Went to an outdoor concert, 80-some thousand people! Flew in a plane. Traveled to Alberta, worked for a sex offender. Started a blog.
2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don't think I made a resolution last year... I knew that I wouldn't keep it, cus I never do. BUT this year will be different my friends. I resolve to be more creative with my spare time - no more TV... well some... but it won't be what I resort to in boredom.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
Welll uhhhh ... Jesus was born again on Christmas day.... we tight.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
Yes, my grandmother died 4 weeks ago. I miss her soo so much.
5. What countries did you visit?
None other than Canada - but Alberta was a whole new adventure for me! It's really flat... like TOTALLY just flat. Like.. I thought there would be some slight inclinations... but no.
6. What would you like to have in 2006 that you lacked in 2005?
An acceptance letter into Social Work would be just wonderful. That, and an STD.
7. What date from 2005 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
Probably the day of the Rolling Stones Concert - it was just so much fun, great music and just seeing that many people crammed into the same space all at once just baffles me.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Graduating from University!
9. What was your biggest failure?
Probably being declined acceptance into Social Work. But, as Britt says, every cloud has a silver lining, and so, I got the great experience of being a nanny!
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
The odd cold - surprisingly no injuries - I usually fall and sprain my ankle about once a year, but NOT in 2005! HAH.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
A new toothbrush.
12. Whose behavior merited celebration?
Brittany Leeman everybody, Brittany Leeman! *begins slow clap*

16. What song will always remind you of 2005?

32. What would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?

Oh. My. God. I'm sorry, but that was way too funny for some people to handle. I don't know why, but the whole combo #4 thing killed me, you don't even know. Let's give a slow clap to amy for that one, frig. LOVES it! (Also, who is this persone you loathe so much? it's not comin to me) That's it! I thoroughly enjoyed that whole thing, a-thank-you Amy O'Keefe.I'm not even mad.
Peace
hahah i agree with britt... im drooling at the mouth to know who you loathe... simply so that i can use my mob-connections to hire a hitman to off them... free of charge.. of course, i'll have to give a considerable amount of head for it... but its worth it cause its for you.
