remulaLast night I had a nightmare in which we were back in school already and somehow it was midterm review time and I had absolutely NOTHING done since our review a few weeks ago and I was basically freaking the fuck out. Luckily I woke up before it was actually my turn to present, but yeah. I was SUPER STRESSED when I woke up. -_-
Segue to what I have been doing this break, which is basically nothing school-related at all. (Possibly the reason for my horrible dream? Subconscious guilt for not thinking about school or something, LOL.) What I have been doing is watching movies.aznearthdragon and I watched Easy A, Knight and Day (with our brother), How to Train Your Dragon, Prince of Persia, Robin Hood, and Shutter Island (the last four with our brother and our mom). Movies are awesome, but are totally a time-suck, lol. Besides that, we recently bought Jenga, Uno, and Skip-Bo during our Christmas shopping expeditions, so we've been playing a whole lot of that as well.
Anyway, let's do a meme!
Did you enjoy this year?
I guess this year was okay, but it wasn't really a great year or anything. I guess I've slowly grown discontent with what I'm doing with my life or something, IDK.
What did you do in 2010 that you'd never done before?
I guess I kind of had a social life in that I went dancing downtown a few times.
Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
At first I thought I didn't I kept any, but after checking my resolutions, I guess I kind of did a few of them, ish, LOLOL. I mean, if we're going to be completely honest here, the only one I actually kept was the "go to a football game" one, but whatever! One is better than none! XP
Did anyone close to you give birth?
Don't think so.
Did anyone close to you die?
No.
What countries did you visit?
The United States! Which, I suppose, doesn't really count since I live in the US, but whatever, it's a country! XP (But really, I've never been out of the country, so yeah...)
What would you like to have in 2011 that you lacked in 2010?
Kinda lame, but I kind of want to have a boyfriend, lol. But besides that, I actually want to have a job since I'll be graduating in June.
What date from 2010 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
I honestly can't think of anything significant that's happened this year that was, like, extremely memorable.
What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Ugh, probably nothing. x_x I guess I'll say finally getting a 3.001 GPA since that sounds better than achieving nothing.
What was your biggest failure?
I pretty much just always feel like a failure, so IDEK what to say.
Did you suffer illness or injury?
If I did/am, I don't know about it, so hopefully not.
Did you have to go to the hospital?
No.
Are you registered to vote?
Yes! I don't actually remember doing this, but apparently I got the voting stuff and an absentee ballot! Too bad it was sent to my house instead of me at school, lol, but my mom decided to do mine (she's not registered), so it's kind of like I voted, right?
What was the best thing you bought?
I dunno! I think I buy a lot of boring things, lol.
Whose behavior merited celebration?
aznearthdragon, for listening to all my complaining.
Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Ugh, too many people.
Where did most of your money go?
Rent, utilities, and school-related crap.
What did you get really, really, really excited about?
Being home for all of spring quarter earlier this year, trip to Philidephia in May, and coming home for Thanksgiving break and staying the whole week.
What songs will always remind you of 2010?
Far East Movement - Like a G6 because it's so overplayed! (But I like it anyway, lol.)
Compared to this time last year, are you:
happier or sadder? Probably sadder? Not that I'm sad, but I think I was happier last year or something.
thinner or fatter? Fatter, definitely. =/
richer or poorer? Poorer. =/
What do you wish you'd done more of?
I wish I'd been more motivated to do better than average for school stuff.
What do you wish you'd done less of?
Less second-guessing what I should be doing with school, with life, with everything.
How will you be spending Christmas?
At my cousin's house with family on my dad's side.
Where did you ring in 2010?
At home, lol. I think I was reading a![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hd_holidays fic at the time?
Did you fall in love in 2010?
No.
How many one-night stands?
None.
What was your favorite TV program?
I didn't watch much TV this year... Plus, what I did watch weren't exactly good seasons, so yeah, lol.
Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?
Hate is such a strong word, so no. There are some people I don't like as much or am disappointed with or whatever though...
What was the best book you read?
I kind of don't remember what I've read this year? I mean, I tend think in terms of school year (Sept-Aug instead of Jan-Dec), so it's harder for me to recall what was this year or last year or whatever, lol. Also, I haven't read any books lately (so sad!), but I think that I read The Queen's Thief series this year, so I'll say that (especially the third book since it's my favorite one in the series) because they are just so awesome.
What was your greatest musical discovery?
I don't really remember when I discover music, LOL, so it's hard to figure out my greatest musical discovery of the year... I'll just go with who I've discovered recently that I like -- The Cataracs! Dance-y music is always fun, lol.
What did you want and get?
Uhh.. nothing?
What did you want and not get?
Straight As this past quarter. =/ No one to blame but myself and senioritis, lol.
Were you in school (any time this year)?
Yes!
How did you earn your keep?
Sadly I don't have a job! So I'm not really earning my keep at all. ;_;
What was your favorite film of this year?
I don't really go to the movies much, so I'm pretty limited in what I can say! Maybe Inception? I liked Toy Story 3 -- I totally cried at the end of it, LOL.
What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
I had a birthday dinner the night before, but for my actual birthday, I pretty much just sat around and did nothing, lol. I turned 23!
What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
If I had time to read more for fun.
How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2010?
Solid colors, v-neck shirts, jeans. This is pretty much my staple for always, LOL.
What kept you sane?
Being able to vent about stupid people/things.
Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?
IDK, I'm not really into famous people much.
What political issue stirred you the most?
I don't really follow politics that much? But the tuition fee increases, marriage equality, and DADT.
Who did you miss?
aznearthdragon.
Who was the best new person you met?
All of you. ♥
Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2010:
I need to get some better RL friends.
Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
This is actually really hard b/c I can't just think of lyrics off the top of my head! So I'll cheat and go with the song that's playing now, but I'll say that instead this should sum up what I hope next year will be like (since I don't really think it sums up this year): "Let's have the time of our lives, like there's no one else around, just throw your hands up high, even when they try to take us down." (Yeah, whatever, I totally admit I listen to Miley Cyrus, okay? XP)
