2013 year in review meme!
12 years ago
General
I decided to do this thing as kind of a venting/ perspective journal... as well as maybe giving you a guys a bit more info about me! Maybe I'll do a Q&A later if anyone is interested. :)
1. Was 2013 a good year for you? Why?
As far as years go, it might have been the hardest I've had so far in terms of family life and friendships and even trying to become more independent as a person.. But overall I have realized that no matter how bad things get, I have a wonderful man by my side to wipe away the tears, and an amazing Mother and Father to catch me when I fall. <3
2. What was your favourite moment of the year?
Honestly I can't think of one particular moment that was the best... But sitting down with the boy and watching movies together are honestly my favourite moments.
3. What was your least favourite moment of the year?
Uh..well. Without going into a ton of detail, my mental break down in about March/April and the resulting shitstorm that followed was pretty fucking bad tbh.
4. Where were you when 2013 began?
I was actually laying on the beach in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Oh my goodness...Missing the warm breeze and the smell of the beach already.
5. Who were you with?
Most of my family were there, my cousin was getting married! It was a wonderful experience.
6. Where will you be when 2013 ends?
(lol I am late!) Right here, trying to keep myself together for another week, then I'll know where I stand with home life and stuff.
7. Who will you be with when 2013 ends?
I am a much stronger me. I didn't realize just how emotionally and physically resilient I can be when it's needed. And how forgiving I am when it matters.
8. Did you keep your New Year's Resolutions of 2013?
I don't think I made any...? I don't remember! Haha!
9. Do you have New Year's Resolution(s) for 2014?
Honestly, I would like to be more physically strong so when stress gets overwhelming it doesn't affect me quite as much. Practice art, reach a comfortable routine with myself so I can accomplish my goals without so much struggle! I want to be able to buy a car in October as well. Maybe if this art thing goes well, I will be able to pay for my driving lessons! Oh and most important of all, raise my damn art prices a bit...
10. Did you fall in love in 2013?
I fall in love every year with the same man. I am so blessed to have his strong self by my side.
11. If yes, with who?
Um well, his name is Phillip!
12. If yes, do they know?
Oh I hope so!
13. Are you still in love with them?
Every day I wake up I tell him so.
14. You regret it?
Being in love? Never. I regret my failures in the relationship more than anything else.
15. Did you break up with anyone in 2013?
Nope!
16. Did you make any new friends in 2013?
I made a few, I strengthened the bond between my few best friends and I've never been happier.
17. Who are your favourite new friends?
Oh gosh...
18. What was your favorite month of 2013?
Hmmm. August was my birthday, which was pretty balls to the wall awesome. But honestly November/December ended up being really good.
19. Did you travel outside of your country of residence in 2013?
If you count last New Years, yes.
20. How many different states / provinces did you travel to in 2013?
Ummm...2? Alberta and B.C.
21. Did you lose anybody close to you in 2013?
Actually this may sound silly buy my Boyfriend's kitty cat passed away this year, and she was so weak before that we would sit with her on a blanket, and we'd pet her slowly as she struggled to breathe.. ;_; I remember looking at her laying there as she tried to rest herself and she looked me right in the eyes and reached for my hand. I cried so much when they took her into the vet. She's in an urn now, so we can say hi to her every morning.
22. Did you miss anybody in the past year?
My parents. We live together but on opposite schedules so it's not unusual for me not to see them until I have a day off.
23. What was your favourite movie that you saw in 2013?
Ummmm................The Hobbit was freaking awesome. I adore fantasy movies so I'll have to think on it more and come back!
24. What was your favourite song from 2013?
Currently...It's actually a mix...does that count? It's 'summer chords electro house mix' by Mr.suicidesheep. Look that shit up on YT. It will make you dance for forever.
25. What was your favourite record from 2013?
Record? Lol Um. I don't have a record player anymore but probably something Phil's Dad plays. He has good taste I'm just terrible with names. (It's probably ELO or Pink Floyd or someshit idfk)
26. How many concerts did you see in 2013?
None! I haven't gone to a concert in forever because despite being 22 I am like a granny. Loud music and crowds irritate me. lol
27. Did you have a favourite concert in 2013?
Nope
28. Did you drink a lot of alcohol in 2013?
I actually discovered what my limit was.
29. Did you do a lot of drugs in 2013?
A small amount. I'm not into it at all.
30. How many people did you sleep with in 2013?
1.
31. Did you do anything you are ashamed of this year?
Plenty of stuff. Thankfully nothing life-altering.
32. What was your most memorable moment you shared with someone in 2013?
It may have been when my Boyfriend told me that he wouldn't leave me no matter what happened. Despite me being a total wreck at the time and taking my anger out on him. He still holds me and tries to cheer me up when I have to stop what I'm doing and have a cry. He's so kind.
33. What was the worst lie someone told you in 2013?
I had to look my parents in the eye and pretend everything was fine and pretend I didn't know why my Sister wasn't talking to us.
34. Did you treat somebody badly in 2013?
I may have...I never do anything without a reason though.
35. Did somebody treat you badly in 2013?
My Sister. I have come to terms with the fact that we won't ever have a relationship. I'm okay with it. :) Less stress.
36. How much money did you spend in 2013?
Ooh lord. I don't want to know.
37. What was your proudest moment of 2013?
I managed to save up 4000 dollars all on my own! And until recently I was managing my ADD so well that I didn't have any issues remembering stuff or doing my work.
38. What was your most embarrassing moment of 2013?
Oh I dunno...I must have blocked it out haha
39. If you could go back in time to any moment of 2013 and change something, what would it be?
I would say I wouldn't reach out to my sister but it wouldn't have changed anything really. Tell myself to spend less impulsively! >_<
40. What are your plans for 2014?
Go back to school maybe, or get a full-time position! And spend time with one of my oldest friends in May! :D
I will save up for a car and downpayment too. Or maybe vacation! :)
