Year In Review

JANUARY: How did you ring in 2007?
I was actually at a friend/co-worker's house for a game night with some of her friends and another of our co-workers, and it was very nice, and much more fun than I would have anticipated, given that I had dreaded all holidays.

FEBRUARY: What did you do for Valentine's Day?
I bought hilarious cards and made gift packs for my girlfriends. Again, much better than I thought it would be.

MARCH: Did you celebrate St. Patty's Day by getting drunk?
No, I was babysitting for the drunk getters. More money, less hangovers!

APRIL: Did you have to walk in the rain?
This is Indiana, let's be realistic. If I hadn't walked in the rain, I wouldn't have left my house.

MAY: Did you fail any classes?
Damn near, but my math teacher let me re-take my final, which got me over that hump to the diploma. Bless him.

JUNE: Did you buy a new swimsuit?
No, 'cause I don't really do a lot of swimming. Maybe next year I'll get one of those cute, 50s looking ones.

JULY: Did you party on 4th of July?
I didn't have to work and I got to see Jon, so... sure!

AUGUST: Did you go to the beach?
I'm landlocked. So no.

SEPTEMBER: Did you start school again?
Nope, I'm on a break.

OCTOBER: What did you dress as for Halloween?
I think I just wore a silly headband with cat ears or something. I'm lazy.

NOVEMBER: What did you do for Thanksgiving?
Spent the morning at my dad's eating steak, and the afternoon at my sister's eating turkey. It was nice.

DECEMBER: What do you want/what did you get for Christmas?
I got a super nice new computer from my mom, among other things. I can't wait to have the internet at home again.

Personal Reflection

Did you reach your goals for 2007?
I don't think I set specific goals, but I think I did okay.

Beside your set goals, what else did you accomplish?
I graduated, I took care of myself all by myself for a whole year, I made a lot of progress in therapy, and I didn't get fired! So good year.

What is something you learned about yourself?
That I can get through more stuff than I thought I could.

Did you do anything you'd never thought you'd ever do?
Not that I can think of.

In 2007, did you:

Change your apperance?
I got some cute haircuts.

Move to a new place?
Ick, no. I hate moving.

Go to a concert?
I saw Guster twice!

Go to a sporting event?
No, but I was at the Super Bowl in spirit, and it was awesome.

Get a new job?
Nope!

Get a new addition to your family?
My dad's adorable dachshund puppies, Oscar and Charlie.

Gain new friends?
I'm sure I did at some point.

Lose old friends?
Lose isn't the right word, but I did accept that some relationships have changed substantially.

Get into a fight (verbal or physical)?
Verbal for sure. My sisters and I go rounds sometimes.

Puke from drinking too much?
No, and not an experience I missed. I did have the flu for the first time in a while this year, and it re-cemented for me how freaking much I hate puking.

Go to a wedding?
Nope, not that I can recall.

Go to a funeral?
I don't think so, which is a good thing.

Go to the hospital?
To visit my grandma, yeah.

Have any run ins with the law?
*sigh* Yeah, my stupid license got suspended and I'm still sorting it out.

Start a relationship?
As a matter of fact, yes.

End a relationship?
Nope.

Spend over $1000 on something?
My rent
