Now for a survey I did last year- thought it would be interesting to see what’s changed…:
1. What did you do in 2005 that you'd never done before?
Had multiple surgeries. Had a computer chip put in my body. Got in a car accident. Got a job I like. Tutored high schoolers.
2. Did you keep your New Year's resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
Not a big resolution maker. But I really need to get on the exercise train.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
Nope
4. Did anyone close to you die?
No.
5. What countries did you visit?
None
7. What dates from 2005 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
Finding out what was finally wrong with my heart--That was the biggest. Directing my first play. Being in Blithe Spirit. My car accident. Friends getting married. This was a huge, huge year with so much stuff happening, I can’t list it all.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Getting through it in one piece! Also, directing, pushing through, and getting my scholarship renewed.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
LOL what a loaded question for me! Yes. All of the above. Still do, but keep on keepin’ on. Long QT is a bitch.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
No clue. Maybe Smallville. I never buy stuff for myself.
13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Once again, as last year, it’s not worth going into.
14. Where did most of your money go?
Food and movies and school.
15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
I had this weird high going cuz in one day I found out I got in the play, that they may have found out what was going on with my heart, and some other big thing, and at the time it was exciting.
16. What songs will always remind you of 2005?
Kelly Clarkson’s “Breakaway” album was big for me this year.
17. Compared to this time last year, you are...
i) happier or sadder? I think, despite the craziness of the year, I am more content knowing things I did not know before. I think I have grown a lot, and that makes me happy.
ii) thinner or fatter? “Fatter” is relative, but I gained a few lbs, so I say that.
iii) richer or poorer? richer
18. What do you wish you'd done more of?
Dancing. Acting. Singing--Always. Reading for fun. Being more social.
19. What do you wish you'd done less of?
Being depressed, but I think it was a necessary step.
20. How will you be spending Christmas?
Eve will be at Aunt Sue’s and here. Day will be at Bill’s dad’s and at Jen’s. A lot.
22. Did you fall in love in 2005?
Stayed in love :)
23. How many one night stands?
None.
24. What were your favorite TV programs?
Smallville takes the cake, hands down. Still loving my old faves though. Newer ones include House, Bones, Supernatural, Lost, Criminal Minds, Crossing Jordan.
25. Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?
Hating is overrated and takes waaaay to much emotional energy, so no.
26. What was the best book you read?
Took on the Fountainhead this summer. Also read a lot of great stuff on teaching. And some fun Nora Roberts.
27. What was your greatest musical discovery?
Kelly Clarkson
28. What did you want and get?
A new job. A renewed scholarship. More teaching experience. Being in the play. Dealing with hardship better than before. A very sparkly ring.
29. What did you want and not get?
A simple solution to life’s problems.
30. What was your favorite film of this year?
These are always hard for me. I don’t think I have a favorite, but I enjoyed 40 Year Old Virgin, Batman Begins, Crash…there are more, maybe.
31. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
Still have 5 days to go. But I’m planning on being spoiled
33. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2005?
Easy. Although I stepped it up in the summer and fall, and made a pact not to wear jeans every day.
34. What kept you sane?
Didn’t have a whole lot of it, especially this summer! But I’d say doing the play and dance and musical theatre in the spring was really good. Also therapy!! hahaha
36. What political issue stirred you the most?
Politics are evil
37. Who did you miss?
Friends I don't see or hear from very often.
39. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2005?
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
