~ My 2009 ~

Saw this online while I was blogsurfing, and I thought, hell, why not use it for myself? ^^;

1. What did you do in 2009 that you'd never done before?
... wow... I don't think I actually did anything new. How sad is that? Maybe go up to KL by myself, but that just sounds sad. Ooh, or how about when I went to my first ever Final Fantasy concert? Does that count?

2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I never make new years' resolutions. I never keep them. XD

3. How will you be spending New Year's Eve?
Probably just stay home and do nothing/watch TV. (OMG, my life is just so sad...)

4. Did anyone close to you die?
Michael Jackson? :P It felt like a year where a lot of famous people died, but maybe that's cause of the MJ effect. ^^;; But my rabbit did die. Kinda depressing. XD

5. What countries did you visit?
... none...

6. What would you like to have in 2010 that you lacked in 2009?
Better communication? ^^;

7. What date from 2009 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
Erm... no real date. The Final Fantasy concert? December 16th? Cause I thought that was when I would go to KL all by my lonesome self.

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Being thoroughly average on all of my exams. XD

9. What was your biggest failure?
Failing to do anything actually that meaningful. There were some things I started which I really should've gotten further with, but really, I didn't come close to actually finishing any of my side projects.

10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
Healthy as a unfit ox. XD

11. What was the best thing you bought?
The Star Wars Fate of the Jedi series, KARA's Okinawa Special Edition Revolution album, all SNSD's albums.

12. Where did most of your money go?
Stuff I bought? Haha. Actually my albums probably.

13. What song will always remind you of 2009?
SNSD - Gee. English wise, Taylor Swift's Love Story or any of her songs for that matter, 2009 was as much SNSD's year as it was Taylor Swift's year.

14. What do you wish you'd done more of?
Work on my 'projects'.

15. What do you wish you'd done less of?
Doing nothing. XD

16. What was your favourite TV program?
Err... erm... my breakout show for this year would probably be Royal Pains.

17. Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?
Not really. Disappointed maybe.

18. What was the best book you read?
Star Wars: Fate of the Jedi: Omen. (I read all scifi or fantasy books, hehe)

19. What was your greatest musical discovery?
I really got into the Korean Pop scene this year. Normally I just follow along, but I did get into it much more this year. And I realized how awesome all Final Fantasy songs sound, regardless of whether they are the main theme or not.

20. What was your favorite film of this year?
Primer! Well, I watched it this year. Hehe. But of 2009, erm... I would say Inglorious Basterds or Star Trek or Avatar. The big blockbusters were fun, but not at all that memorable.

21. What did you do on your birthday?
Good question. I was asking myself this question yesterday.

22. What kept you sane?
A few things: family, blogging, friends, my ability to be relatively logical.

23. Who did you miss?
Quite a lot of people. Still do in fact.

24. Who was the best new person you met?
Mysone peeps! XD Well, just a few of them, but they were nice.

25. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2009:
Stop complaining about stuff and just get on with it. I complained a lot this year, and I ranted and raved and yelled a lot at my one friend who wanted to listen to me and for that I am sorry. I only realized near the end of this year that I just had to get on with it rather than try to fix something that wasn't necessarily broken nor totally whole and let what will happen, just happen.

So yeah, if I do not post again before 2009 ends (Which is unlikely given my rate of posting), may you have a happy and awesome start at 2010!!! XD
