2008 Introspective

I stole this from the blog of brown. Shout out for for the blog idea!

What did you do in 2008 that you'd never done before?
Saw Mt Rushmore, went to NYC, went on vacay solo, left a job that I was perfectly happy with.

Who’s new in 2008?

Miley Curus and the Jo Bros. (they're everywhere and I still know nothing about them). Is that what the question is asking?

Did anyone close to you pass away?
Luckily, no.

What countries did you visit?

A savings account.

What was your biggest personal achievement of the year?

No more school! and getting my first grown-up job

Did you suffer illness or injury?
Nope. I'm strong as an ox.

What was the best thing you bought?
LAMB bag, LAMB pumps, Marc Jacobs mouse flats (black and silver), turquoise Tory Burch flats, green Tory Burch pumps, Chanel necklace, furniture for the apartment, black forever 21 jacket (I wish I was kidding. That jacket is the best $24 I ever spent...)

Who did you have the most fun with?

Steven, Mandi, and Nat are my go-to pals. Don't believe me? watch this:


ps: to all you wii owners: get Wario Smooth Moves. NOW

Where did most of your money go?

Rent. College debt. Target. Going out to eat.

What did you get really, really, really excited about?

Buying my Britney Spears tickets. Seriously.

What song will always remind you of 2008?
Womanizer by B Spears, Untouched by the Veronicas, Viva la Vida by Coldplay, American Boy by Estelle

What do you wish you'd done less of?
Eating. Ye-ikes.

Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year?

Hate is a really strong word, but there are definitely people who I have purposefully left out of my life. Ne need to be catty and list them here (...but if you really want to know, I'll totally tell you. jk. kind of.)

What was the best book you read?

Awakening the Buddha Within. And I re-read The Truth About Diamonds by Nicole Ritchie, always a good read.

What was your favorite film of this year?

Forgetting Sarah Marshall

What did you do on your birthday and how old were you?

I turned 2-freaking-4 and I hated it. Kept it low key and had dinner with the friends.

How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2008?

It started out as "the flashier the better" (sequins, stilettos, and more bracelets than you can shake a stick at), transitioned into "business chic" (BR slacks and cardigans), and has now become...well, dresses with leggings and boots. I know, I'm so ashamed.

What kept you sane?

TV.

When you think about 2008 what sticks out in your mind?

Quarter life crisis.

2 things stick out to me from this post.

1- why have i never been invited over to play this game?

2- love that your t.v. list is longer than any other response on the page.

SOME people may have noticed that the catanos were left off the list for the "most fun with" question...

don't worry, i'm not taking it personally. i know that disappearing for 4 months really hurt us in the polls.

we've already made a strong start to '09, and the addition of the pop-tart will make us the team to beat, baby!
