2011
14 years ago
1. What did you do in 2011 that you'd never done before?
Travelled to Germany.
Got pierced.
Moved out, even moved cities.
So much more.
2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
Last year I didn't make any, 12 months ago I was one of the happiest people in the world, I had it all. This coming year, different, I'll be making some, I hate calling them resolutions, they're more long term goals.
3. How will you be spending New Year's Eve?
Likely with friends, reminding me why I want to be back in the North East of the UK.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
Not this year.
5. What countries did you visit?
Majorca, Germany
6. What would you like to have in 2012 that you lacked in 2011?
Everything I lost, dropped, misplaced through 2011?
7. What date from 2011 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
Likely EF, walking round the corner after spending 8 hours travelling to see the hotel and a smile spreading over my face.
8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
New Job!
9. What was your biggest failure?
Watching my world collapse around me.
10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
A deep wound on my left thumb from a pair of scissors. Nothing more serious than that though really.
11. What was the best thing you bought?
Not sure. I don't really attach myself to possessions very often.
12. Where did most of your money go?
Rent and holidays.
13. What song will always remind you of 2011?
Pass, I could have a compilation album for 2011 if I wanted to!
14. What do you wish you'd done more of?
Hobbies, driving, traveling.
15. What do you wish you'd done less of?
Less saving. I realised that you can't take money with you.
16. What was your favorite TV program?
Battlestar Galactica.
17. Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?
No, I learnt forgiveness if anything this year.
18. What was the best book you read?
For the first time in years, I honestly didn't read a book.
19. What was your greatest musical discovery?
Death Cab for Cutie - Codes and Keys
20. What was your favorite film of this year?
Honestly? Nothing really impressed me.
21. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
22, I had alcohol on my birthday for the first time. Surrounded by so many awesome people eating tapas in the city nowhere can ever replace.
22. What kept you sane?
Music, memories and a ton of awesome friends.
A special note must be added to my parents who received many late night phone calls.
23. Who did you miss?
Every last single person from Newcastle, some more than others, but I remembered each and everyone one of you.
24. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2011:
There's more to life than work and saving money.
Go nuts, while you still can, take that risk, step into the unknown.
Be free.
