1. What did you do in 2012 that you'd never done before?

- Went and actively participated in a wedding
- Travel to New York
- Graduate University
- Travel to Croatia, Spain and Switzerland

2. Did you keep your New Year's Resolutions, and will you make more for next year?

Last Year’s Resolutions:
-Look good for Jamie’s Wedding - exercise, eat better, etc. I have eleven months! = WIN.
-Graduate! It damn well better happen this year. Or else. = WIN
-Skydive: Again, it is going to be my Graduation present to myself. I refuse to attend the actual ceremony. = FAIL….I didn’t have the money
-Start Paying off Debt! = WIN
-Less Drama, please! = FAIL…but it was somewhat manageable
-Get my G1!!!!! = FAIL…I seriously NEED to get on that shit. It’s ridiculous that I still don’t have one yet. But! I did get a government ID card so that’s one step closer right?

This Years' resolutions:
- Save up for France
- Keep up Lala’s Monster Budget for 2013 and try to stick to it as realistically as possible
- Do not let my job get to me. It’s a means to an end.
- Get my G1!

3. How did you spend New Year's Eve?
As per tradition, we had our annual New Year’s Party at Fountainhead. Everyone wanted to show up did and more. I dressed all classy and Michael was dressed as my super rich, hick chic husband while I was his trophy wife. We played Sociables and Singstar. I had so much fun!

4. Did anyone close to you die?
Thankfully, no.

5. What countries did you visit?
I can actually say with PRIDE that I actually travelled! I am so incredibly lucky and happy!
- New York, USA
- Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
- Chambéry, France
- Zurich and Montruex, Switzerland
- Zagreb, Croatia
- Madrid, Spain

6. What would you like to have in 2013 that you lacked in 2012?
I asked for a steady job to pay all of my debts last year. This year, I do have that. I think I would like to have a semblance of a savings account. Aaaaand possibly a new Blue Singstar mic.

7. What date from 2012 will remain etched in your memory and why?
Despite the fact that it’s recent, it’s still valid. It was Boss’ Birthday surprise to New York. November 30th - Dec 2nd. It was simply incredible.

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year?
I graduated! Although I am not uber happy with my job, I am grateful for having one.

9. What was your biggest failure?
Not being brave enough to confront my troubles…and lack of communication.

10. Did you suffer illness or injury?
Regrettably, yes. As I mentioned, my job isn’t the best in the world and it strains my body causing me to get sick more often. Not fun. Slowly but surely, I’m getting over it.

11. What was the best thing you bought?
- Winter boots
- New York Trip

12. Where did most of your money go?
Transportation, Europe, Dominican Republic (and by extension Jamie’s wedding), and New York. Basically travel.

13. What songs will always remind you of 2012?
Masterpiece - Madonna (SO ADDICTIVE)
Pound the Alarm - Nicki Minaj (that whole freaking album is just amazing)
Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen (her other songs were awesooome)
Honourable Mentions: Bruno Mars, Lights, No Doubt

14. What do you wish you'd done more of?
I definitely wish I enjoyed life a lot more. It was a rather stressful year.

15. What do you wish you'd done less of?
Care so much about things that mean so little to me.

16. What was your favourite T.V. program?

- Lost Girl
- Femme Fatales
- Community
- Happy Endings
- Game of Thrones

22. What kept you sane?
Friends, living at the He Princeton, and music. (Same as last year, still stands strong and true)
