01. What did you do in 2010 that you'd never done before?
I learned to ride a motorcycle!
02. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I can't remember if I made any last year, but I definitely didn't keep them if I did. This year, I'm going to try to swear less, at least for the month of January.
03. Did someone close to you give birth?
Nope.
04. Did anyone close to you die?
No, thank goodness :)
05. Where did you go on vacation?
No vacations. I guess that balances out the four that I took in 2009.
06. What would you like to have in 2011 that you lacked in 2010?
Money, solid relationships, self-discipline
07. What days are particularly memorable from 2010?
- The night we stayed up all night and watched with 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs' twice.
- The night my neighbor and the womanizer came over and the long, boring stories that followed.
- The day I met Matt and we stayed up talking until like 7:00 in the morning.
- The night Chris and Tara and I went home with those weird guys and I drunkenly tried to play dinosaur chess and Chris played drums at like 3:00 in the morning.
- The 4th of July (falling asleep in my car and having that cop wake me up, the awesome fire show where Chris's head got lit on fire, watching Chris and Tyler dance to Katy Perry at that gay bar)
- Seeing Rob Zombie for the first time (finally)!
- Getting dumped through Facebook IM and the weekend that followed (talking to Daniel for the first time in months, going to the freak show, struggling with my motorcycle course)
- The day of Ken's birthday party, when my friends texted me and said that they didn't want to be friends anymore (made a new friend that night - good timing, I guess).
- The night I forced Mike to listen to the Broken Bells album like four times in a row.
- Going to the drag show with Ken, then taking pictures of bums when I was drunk and waiting for a ride.
- The epic dance party I had with Courtney, and all of the amazing conversations we had when we were just sitting around doing nothing.
- The night that Ken and I had a conversation so intense that I literally got in my car and started yelling because I was so frustrated.
- Halloween weekend
- Projectile vomiting in the parking lot of the Northgate Mall on Black Friday (sober, ugh!)
- My bday party, and the awesome, amazing people who showed up.
- The adventures we had while Jessica was in town (the Glaude show, dancing all night at Trinity, NYE)

13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Oddly enough, the same person I put here last year could go in this spot for an entirely different reason. There were a couple of people who acted very poorly and definitely made me feel that way. I don't need to name names.

I fell in and out of 'like' a couple times.
22. How many one-night stands?
None. I'm classy, haha :)

Modern Family, 30 Rock, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Dexter (did I watch too much TV this year?)
24. Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?

A bunch of friends met me up at Dante's the Friday before my birthday. It was really fun. On my actual birthday, I went to the Glaude show with Megan and Jessica. That was really fun too! It was a good birthday, even though I turned... 26 (dun dun dun).

Having better judgment in the character of other people.

Sigh.

Katie and Steve.
37. Who was the best new person you met?
I met a couple of amazing people this year. Choosing one is a little hard.
38. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2010:
You can only rely on yourself. No matter how much you love someone, you can't expect them to be there for you. Even the most unlikely people can let you down.
39. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
"'Cause they know and so do I
The high road is hard to find
A detour to your new life
Tell all of your friends goodbye." |
