amaskuponthesky ! ♥
1. What did you do in 2010 that you'd never done before?
Oh wow~. There is a lot I could answer to that, mostly bad (wow, when have I gotten so negative), but I'll stick with got into Asian boy bands because that is like the happiest thing I can think of. Does that even work with that question? Or went to Idaho works, too!
2 Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
Bahaha, I remember that I have my resolution list from last year somewhere. Now I'm kind of curious as to where I put it? I didn't really write any out this year, but I have a couple in my head that I might try out.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
My close cousin Taff and his girlfriend had a baby, Nathaniel! He is such a sweetheart, but as he lives across the country, I haven't had the chance to meet him yet D:
4. Did anyone close to you die?
Another lucky year! I haven't lost anyone close to me since I was three and I'd love to keep it that way for as long as possible!
5. What countries did you visit?
Oh lameness, just the states this year. BUT Italy next year~
6. What would you like to have in 2011 that you lacked in 2010?
Motivation! Procrastination be gone. PLEASE. I don't know how I've managed the grades I have for so long, but I have a feeling I won't be as lucky next year if I keep it up.
7. What date from 2010 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Making it through this year :D

Letting my procrastination get the better of me. I could have saved many, many sleepless nights if only I'd been able to conquer it.

Well, I was sick many a time. But, I guess this year my worst illness was depression. Yuck D:
11.What was the best thing you bought?
My Change Ur World single :D (amaskuponthesky ) <--- Hey me, too! This just seriously pleased me. KAT-TUN FTW!
12.Whose behavior merited celebration?
I don't really know! I have a celebration over people's behavior on a daily basis. I'm sure there were many!
13.Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Jin's! Okay, okay. That's still the hurt talking. And it wasn't really Jin's fault. It was done with good intentions and I accept that. Still very depressing.
14.Where did most of your money go?
That is a damn good question! I can't really tell you to be honest! Most of money since the summer has been going straight to the bank for my trip to Italy. God it'll feel nice to recklessly spend again!
15.What did you get really, really, really excited about?
When my trip to Italy was an absolute go! Okay, I hate that I'm talking about Italy a bunch. But I really am really, really, really excited! ALSO WHEN I DISCOVERED THE LOVELINESS OF SEXY SINGING/DANCING ASIAN MEN.
16.What song will always remind you of 2010?
D-Motion by KAT-TUN. Why? I can't really answer that. I think it's because it was like my most played song of this year.
17.Compared to this time last year, are you happier or sadder?
Definitely sadder, but with 2011 here, I'm hoping to change that! I will make this year a good one!
18.What do you wish you'd done more of?
Socializing and studying Japanese. I'm really behind and it's coming up next semester. Yikes. And socializing, well because of certain circumstances, I didn't much feel like getting out.
19.What do you wish you'd done less of?
Defs procrastinating. Seriously, everything that went seriously wrong was due to me putting things to the last minute!
20.How did you spend Christmas?
Bahaha, my whole family had the stomach flu. So throwing up in between opening presents. Dramatic. But it wasn't the best Christmas I've spent. THOUGH, I did get my iPod Touch and many, many iTunes giftcards, so complaints? None.
22.Did you fall in love in 2010?
Do Asian boybands count? Yes? Then, yes.

Sex and the City and Friends. To die for!

Um, not that I'm aware of. I adore somebody that I didn't last year. Cup half full kind of person.
26.What was the best book you read?
Hmm, I read too damn much. I adored Three Day Road by Joseph Boyden. But other than that, seriously can't pick out any. I have three + full bookshelves and I refuse to go digging.
27.What was your greatest musical discovery?
WELL, KAT-TUN, Arashi, Super Junior, NEWS, DBSK. All the likes. DON'T ASK ME TO CHOOSE ONE.
28.What did you want and get?
An iPod Touch and a Kindle! :D
29.What did you want and not get?
I don't really know to be honest. And that's not meant to be in a spoiled way. I just don't really dwell on stuff like that. On a whim here, a trip to Japan or the chance to see a Jin concert.
30.What was your favorite film of this year?
Does it have to be out this year? If it doesn't, Moon Child. Hyde just made me faint on the floor. If it does, then... I don't even remember what came out this year?
31.What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
My birthday fell on a Friday, so I went out with my friends then had a sleepover. Fun stuff! I turned 16 :D
32.What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
The ability to not freak out over the little things. I shall now adopt 'Don't stress the small stuff' as my motto. And l will live by it.

Comfortable, but a lot more stylish than this time last year. Baha! No, seriously.
34.What kept you sane?
My Asian boy bands and my AMAZING friends and family.
35.Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?

36.What political issue stirred you the most?
Oh~ The whole North and South Korea issue is pretty interesting.
37.Who did you miss?
Some old friends and some relatives.
38.Who was the best new person you met?
Ohmygackt, definitely Tonya (tonieboo0013 )
39.Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2010:
That life goes on. No matter how bad you think things are and no matter how much you think things can't turn around, they always do. I've learned to keep my chin up in the bad times and to celebrate the good ones. Life can't always be good and won't always be bad. Were just humans and we just do the best we can.
40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
"We're breaking and rebuilding
And we're growing
Always guessing
Never knowing
Shocking but we're nothing
We're just moments
We're clever but we're clueless
We're just human
Amusing but confusing
Were trying but where is this all leading
Never Know"

A+ to Johnny and SM for having the gift of choosing beautiful, talented men!
no subject

Date: 2011-01-03 04:01 pm (UTC)This could actually be a NY's resolution *laughs*. What a year to procrastinate! It was fun because most of the time it meant chatting with people in fandom, but seriously.. I need to stop that as well.
I'm so envious on you going to Italy. You'l'l love it, it's a wonderful country. And you have to go to the beach D:!
I'm sad to see this wasn't a very good year for you, especially because I felt like we talked a lot and I never really got anything other than positive vibes and enthusiasm from your comments. I need to be better at reading between lines, I guess. But I'm sure 2011 will be better, way better. Because you're awesome adn you deserve it ♥
2011 will be great, I just know that.

Date: 2011-01-04 03:15 am (UTC)It was a good year.
Already posted a few hours ago.
Ah, yeah, procrastinating is such a common problem ;P
Been doing that too much my whole life...
I know it too well, and I fear everyone who uses lj, tumblr, facebook, twitter ... know's it, too x_X
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 01:47 am (UTC)I know, I just had to get it because I wanted them to know they were supported even with Jin gone ♥

Date: 2011-01-05 01:49 am (UTC)I agree! Everyone with a freaking computer knows procrastination all too well. Seriously, procrastination is DEADLY.

Date: 2011-01-05 02:17 am (UTC)Awe, don't be envious. OMG I will totally buy you a postcard if you give me your address. That would be freaking fun. But, s'all cool if you dont wanna c: I dunno if were going to the beach, but we better be. It's just so pretty there! :D
Argh, 2010 was the worst! Seriously, never had a more miserable year in my life. :/ BUT I don't expect you to be able to read between the lines because generally I'm a very positive, enthusiastic person so even when I'm miserable, people don't catch on. It was a total shock to my friends when they found out I'd been depressed!
Awe thanks, bb♥ You deserve the most amazing year ever!
2011 will be just wonderful.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 02:57 am (UTC)Sure, I'll send you my address, as long as you promise not to send me any weird stuff and not be an old creeper that decides to suddenly come stalk :). And you make sure you go to the beach! It's pretty awesome. Capri and Naples are cute, I also loved Pompei. You'll have a blast in Italy. Rome is just made of history fangasm.
Seriously, I was shocked! But please, if you ever need to talk, here I am. And kind of out of RL, so it should be a little easier :). I kind of know what it's like to go through some parts of life where all you want to do is curl up in a ball and hide under your blanket. But hey, friends are here to tell you to stop burrito-ing yourself and put a smile on your face. So let me be that kind of friend for you as well.
You also deserve it, dear. The most amazing year ever ever ever ♥!
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 03:10 am (UTC)LOL, I really want to know what went through your mind when you said weird stuff~ I can PROMISE you I want buy a thousand dollar ticket and come visit you. And I can promise I am really not some old man. I promise, promise, promise.
I thought you hadn't been to Italy? IM GOING TO ROME AND CAPRI Im pretty sure, but not Naples i don't think. We have this whole itinerary but damn if I know it.
Awe thanks, love♥ The internet is much easier to talk over and I'll keep you in mind. And you better keep me in mind if you need to talk, too! :D Its tough, but we make it through. It didn't feel that way to me this year, but I feel stronger than ever now.
I wanna be those kinds of friends ♥
^ Maybe that just sounds creepy coming from me!
♥♥♥♥♥
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 03:21 am (UTC)Hahaha, Idk, weird stuff. Like poisonous snakes or kinky lingerie, I don't know *laughs*. I'm PMing you my address though and I'll trust your word you're not some old guy creeping on Japanese boys and clueless fantards ♥.
Yes, I was in Italy when I was.. 16? 15? It's gorgeous. I could spend ages in Rome itself, the city is gorgeous. And the Vatican is awesome as well, the museum and all. If you have the chance to go to Venice and Florence, go! It's one of the prettiest cities you'll visit.
I keep you in mind, dear :). It's only that lately I'm just venting everything everywhere, so.. it seems my reserved self came out of the closet and wants her life to be public *laughs*. Or maybe not many things have been bothering me lately. But I assure you, I'll spam you if I need to talk.
I'd love to as well ♥. And yes, you just convinced me you really are a creeper!
(♥)
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 03:32 am (UTC)The always on stage is addicting but very counter-productive. But sometimes I choose fun over work and I'm okay with that. Sometimes, I just need to grab my laptop and forget the world. And the world better damn well accept that.
Lol, come on, who doesn't want free lingerie? Okay, now I'm purposely trying to creep you out. :D LOL, those Japanese boys are of age, Ill have you know! So if i was an old man, it'd be legal. Well .. ish. Kay, I feel like I'm just digging myself a hole, but Ill PM you my address.
I'm so excited ♥ I know it'll be an amazing time as my friend is coming, too. So eee. Just good stuff.
I think that's a good thing, though. Some things I wouldn't mind having people to chat to about that don't need to give me pity looks. Spam away, bb♥
That was my intention. But, I do love you anyways.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 04:00 am (UTC)Oh, it's not braggish if it's true. I'm glad you're doing good on that account though. School is so freaking important. And work is as well. that's why I really need to stay far from the always-on stage. I might've been able to do so in high school, but now it's plain irresponsible :(
Alright, gimme lingerie! *laughs* No, really. I can sound like such a creeper sometimes when I get stalkerish, we better stop creeping each other out. I'll see what I can send you now~~
(♥)
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 04:39 am (UTC)Lol as a high school student, I can still get away with that shit. But, I still can't afford to spend all my time on here, as much as I'd like to. The people on here are best kind. I wish school wasn't important because than I'd be a slacker.
Baha, I'm always a creeper so it doesn't bother me much but we shall stop before I scar you!
You don't have to send me anything, bud!
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 04:50 am (UTC)Hahaha.. Ikr. I wish I'd discovered this fandom when I was still in high school. I know I would've been those insane fangirls people recognize their name around.
I want to and you aren't stopping me D:. Plus, don't think it'll be any more than horrible handwriting and little trinkets, since the mail here sucks.

Date: 2011-01-05 05:00 am (UTC)BITCH THAT SHIT WAS STOLEN ALREADY. word.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 04:41 pm (UTC)Haha, I'm totally not one of those people, but I flail when I see them. I'm more of a only my friend groups know my obsessive nature and everyone else stays in the dark. I know it's lame cause I should be flaunting this shit, but thinking of everyone giving me all that attention makes me shiver. My bedroom makes up for it, though.
Well, then.. thank you :D I don't even expect more than a letter, that's kind enough already. But, I might pick you up something small in Italy c: The mail here is expensive lol.
no subject
Date: 2011-01-05 07:25 pm (UTC)Really? Idk, I'm totally secretive with my fandom side. People in RL have no idea.. or if they do, they know I like some random Japanese music and that's it.
Ikr, the mail here is also expensive. And lame.

Date: 2011-01-06 05:56 am (UTC)I'm sooo not secretive about the fandom to my friends. My friends can name most of the guys I like, but mostly nobody knows. Its not something I divulge to everyone, but if were buds, there is no way you can't know!
OMG I CHANGED MY LAYOUT! Eeeks.

Date: 2011-01-06 05:59 am (UTC)Meimei honey, you know I like my sleep. Love my sleep. Live for my sleep. Am only awake so I can sleep later on. I'm sure I'll give you some sort of c: and demand you drag my luggage to your car. In a nice, humble way.
NO I WILL ACTUALLY BE AWESOME AND JUMPING AND FLAILING, TITS GOING EVERYWHERE CAUSE I'M COOL LIKE THAT, LUGGAGE MAKING THE ROUNDS SIX OR SEVENTEEN TIMES FROM US HUGGING AND JUMPING AND TITS FLYING.
