It's that time if year again...out with the old and in with the new.

Write down what you may have accomplished, goals you succeeded in making or almost reached.
And last but not least, your New Year's Resolutions.

i spent the first several months of 2011 in a bad depression that i hadn't seen in quite a while. i'd say it lasted from about february to march/maybe april.
and it was terrible. so, at first, the year wasn't good for me.
but the sad feelings subsided and i had a wonderful summer, even though i spent most of it by myself.
but, during those first few months of the year i rekindled a friendship with my friend lacey, and i'm so glad i did.
in the fall of 2011, october to be exact, i got to go to voodoo fest in city park (new orleans). and i'll just say that it was one of the best experiences of my life. i saw amazing bands and i met the most incredible people. these people are everything that i needed in my life. they live 7 hours from here, so we all sort of hold a long distance relationship, but i love them all so much. we're planning on spending the summer together.
in short, 2011 started off bad and then turned absolutely incredible.

also, my new years resolution is probably the same as everyone's-- to lose weight.
i also want to learn swedish but i might not get around to that.

i have this strange feeling like 2011 was the first year of my life.
a lot happened, maybe too much.
i could've ended up anywhere, i met a lot of people, and a lot of stuff happened.
to be honest, i spent most of the year feeling depressed/confused in some way. i was very lucky to meet some people.
in august how i felt improved so much, i was very close with some people, especially my brother, and i really appreciate how he stayed with me when everyone else- girlfriends, friends, teams, family- walked out on me.
i moved to england in september, and that stressed me a lot, i found myself missing my old way of living, which was absurd really, because it sucked. Laughing
i was very frustrated and confused over my sisters' death, and my girlfriend breaking up with me, even though that actually helped me a lot...sometimes when you feel like that though, you don't want to have to meet people who are gonna ask you questions....that kept hurting me for a few months.
last month i met dane and george, two really great guys, who i don't know very well still, but were very welcoming and friendly, and great musicians c:
i'm glad i met them c:
and this year i discovered wrestling, and that was maybe the best thing that happened all year c:
2011 was a pretty hard year, but now i think it was worth it c:
i hope so anyway Wink
next year.....i want my band to play well, and i want to aim towards some achievement in MMA. New years resolutions....that's something i hardly ever do, i don't think i'll change that. But if I had one, it would be just not to give up.

2011 started off pretty bad for me. i had recently graduated college in december of 2010.
so, i was jobless. i eventually went into a state of depression. i couldn't find a job, no matter how hard i tried.
i hated myself. i was really struggling hard with trying to learn to like who i was. to learn how to love myself again.
eventually, i was able to overcome that feeling. the combination of therapy, and posting in the band WAYT thread,
helped me to overcome my depression. i have met so many wonderful people in that thread,
who i am thankful for each and every day. then i got a part time job; a shitty one, but i was still glad i got one.
eventually, after continuing to search for an actual career type job, i finally was able to find one in october.
i love it. so much. the pay is great, the people are great, and i'm actually appreciated for everything i do at that job.
there have been many ups and downs in 2011, but i am still pretty glad at how the year turned out.

as of right now, i don't really have a new year's resolution. i've been trying to think of something,
but i haven't come up with anything just yet.

helena bonham carter- I'm so glad you found a job you like! You deserve it so much <3

My year was okay overall. I finished my music production course in June and passed with a high merit (: went to a fair few gigs, including Reading where I met The Blackout, saw My Chemical Romance a number of times and saw and met Madina Lake again- I think that was the best gig of this year, so amazing to see those guys doing what they do best after what happened to Matthew <3 I also went to Paris for the first time. 2011 was a pretty good year for me, but of course, there were some downs. An ex decided to terrorize me for part of it, having a little bit of a struggle with some issues and then breaking up with my boyfriend =/

Even in spite of those bad things, I'm starting 2012 with a positive attitude. I'm doing a tour management course which I love, I've made loads of new amazing friends at uni and I have a wonderful boyfriend who is very special to me (:

2011 was an intresting year for me, the beginning was pretty cool. I live in NYC at Billie Joe Armstrong was on Broadway so I met him a couple times, very sweet guy. He let me give him a little kiss on the cheek once...he was just very humble. The summer was again pretty good. I saw my family, who i havent seen for 4 years. Missing them as I type this. And for the rest of the summer I just kinda hung out and was being a lazy ass.
The end of August, early September something GREAT happened...My family and I had our annual camping trip in Roscoe, NY. I met an amazing guy named Matthew. He is amazing. Again missing him as I type...Havent seen him since them but, we became good friends. (He also told my brother he liked me In Love) October was the "hell" I guess you could say. I had found out my uncle had been attacked my someone with a baseball bat. He was in a coma. His 2nd coma within 20 years. I seriously didnt believe he would make it. I was depressed. I mean how could you not? It could'e been any phone call that would have wrecked me. And see, my uncle John and I are very close.I couldn't let him go. I got a call one day from my dad...He said that Johnny had woken up from the coma! He's so freakin' strong. The doctors and nurses said it was no longer life threatening! A broke out in a joyful cry. And believe it or not he was home for Christmas. As a matter of fact he's staying at my dad's house right now and he is sitting next to me right now. Well, I guess you could say it has been a VERY "rollercoaster" year. This goes to show its always right in the end!!

2011 was definitely memorable for me.
i started college, and got my first ever failing grade ahaha. I completely went off track from my academic experiences, seeing as i'd never even dreamed i would take up engineering, and it was pretty stressful. I learned a computer programming language in one short semester, and that was hell for me.
this was the first time i lived constantly away from my family, only coming home for like a day or two on the weekends. Stressful travel, constant commute, living on my own, eating without my family buzzing around the place was really different.
i made a great amount of friends, mostly in my block and in the dorm, and i'm so thankful to have met them. Still, i miss hanging out with my high school group of friends. It's different, definitely, not going to an all-girl's school.
this was the first year i had a constant group of guy friends i hung out with - before it was just around whoever dude one of my friends was dating at the time. this year was really no mediator friend, just me and the guy, and it was less awkward, more comfortable.
and there was really a lot less drama in school.
however, this year was also the year where a lot of weird things happened. recently, the hospitalization of my grandmother, the crazy drama going on with some of my friends, the tension rising between us and of course people breaking away.
all in all a lot of things happened in 2011. It was pretty much like i walked into a whole different universe - this is the first time so many things have happened in a year that I remember pretty clearly.

2011. It has been an average year, nothing very eventful has happened. It was my first year of NCEA and real exams, which was a bit strange, but it was just like every other year when I got into it. However, this has been the first time that I've been in a band and played at a gig, the first time I've driven a car, the first time I got my license and the first year that I've been to a fashion show. Bad things are that everything has been so quiet, I'm sort of missing the drama.
And I think this year, I've started taking better photos and stopped caring about what I want them to look like and just going with the flow instead.

New Years Resolutions. Well I hope my trip to Italy next year goes well and that I'll be able to take better photos. I hope I will get to meet One Direction (who have I turned into) if/when they come and I hope that I'll be able to continue playing in the band and making music that we would listen to. I hope that I will be able to go to another fashion show. I want to take better photographs and I want them to be featured online/in magazines/anywhere! I want to just have fun and enjoy being 16 and not care too much and document it all in the form of photos and words.

Ooh 2011, well started out quite slow mostly stayed home playing video games and smoking weed.
Worked every once in awhile, had like 4 or 5 different jobs this year lol.
The month of May was the worst though, lost my cousin Vincent r.i.p & lost my good friend Craig 2 weeks after. r.i.p
Then summer came there were alot of shit faced nights, and wasted days, moved into a new house though. That was nice change. Relapsed on coke again though.
September ish got a new job at the coffee shop, love it still there despite freaking out and swearing at the boss. But its all good now.
Had a girlfriend, fought with girlfriend, lost best friend due to relationship, got cheated on by girlfriend, forgave her, month later we broke up anyways,
but mah best bud and I ended up making up, so no real loss there.
Saw my dad twice this year, I think that's a new record. Saw my brother for Christmas, and watched my nephew walk and run, he's growing up quite fast.
All and all, 2011 was really boring but yet a lot of shit happened.. and a lot changed..

Anyways my resolutions, the typical quit smoking, go work up on the oil rigs, see more of my family, and for once have no regrets no matter.
