So another year is winding down to a close and we are gearing up for the last year before the world will end… if we believe those Mayans, anyway.
My 2011 was awesome, high up on my list of favorite years. Here’s a recap of what happened:
– I got my own room again after what… seven years? Hurray for privacy! ^_^
– I bought a kindle. A bookworm’s dream! Thus I got to read a lot of books; my favorite being the tribute to my idol who died this year – Steve Jobs’s bio.
– My old iphone’s battery went wonky on me so I recontracted my phone line and got the new iphone 4s. Hello Siri!
– I traveled mostly to Indonesia. Went to Jakarta, Bandung and Bali and haven’t blogged about them until now. Oops. But Bali… Bali was the best.
– I made a goal of losing weight and actually achieved it. I gained some of it back though but it’s still a net loss overall.
– I wrote some short stories, including the best one I’ve written so far – Shopping for the One.
– I joined the social committee in the office. It’s what I’ve always been good at. I’ve done pretty well at work too, though.
– I saw half of my face on the big screen and my name scrolled through the credits twice. Maybe someday I’ll see it again but not under the heading “extras” this time? *Fingers crossed*
– I discovered Big Bang Theory, Modern Family and How I Met Your Mother and I’ve never laughed this hard since the year I discovered Friends (which was 2005).
– I saw Voyage de la Vie and Wicked and they are the best live shows I’ve seen so far in my life.
– I attended a couple of weddings in the Philippines, so I got to go home twice where I met my first niece and I had my most heartfelt conversations with my brother and my mom.
– I started dating again.
I think the last item was probably what made this year so memorable, though. Haha! Or as Siri would put it, Ha ha! 😉
But while 2011 was awesome, I wish 2012 would be legen… wait for it…
