A new year! Welcome 2004.

Goodbye to the year 2003. The year that will forever known to be as the year of DRAMAH!

This year, I…

  • figured out what relationships were worth saving
  • made friendships with people I normally wouldn\’t associate myself with
  • figured out my future career
  • met Alecky in person for the first time!
  • had two Ghiradelli earthquakes – mostly drank by a straw
  • drove every day 2.5 hour roundtrip to an internship in Santa Clara
  • went to four bars and did not drink alcohol at all
  • had only a good time at one of the four bars…on my 21st birthday
  • still have not exercised my right of being 21
  • had the best birthday dinner ever even if only a quarter of the people I invited showed up
  • flew out of state by myself to Minny Soda to meet TWO BOYZ!!!
  • still am indecisive of singledom and attachedness
  • finally attained a research position at GUIR which I had been desiring for almost 2 years – in actuality, only took 2 e-mails to accomplish the job!
  • finally felt at ease in a class group, where nobody was a leader and everybody played the role in a team
  • communicated with each of my EXes once this year in a surprise move – a random phone call for one and a surprise visit to his work for the other
  • drove all the way to San Francisco just to have dinner at the best Japanese restaurant ever
  • went all the way to Frisco just to watch Matrix Reloaded in the UA Coronet at midnight
  • used my futon for other purposes than just a place to fling my clothes
  • woke up at 5:30 am to buy over $300+ of merchandise on Black Friday
  • visited UCSC and Stanfurd for the very first time
  • met my cousin and his girlfriend (possibly his finance) after nearly 5 years of not seeing each other…they moved to the Bay Area about 3 months later
  • spent 3 hours in the local supermarket…researching how they categorize products in the store for a class paper
  • realized the power of study groups and cafes
  • caused positively.cpnet to break apart when the war threads started…and the whole forum eventually fell apart about 5 months later
  • made certain boys dislike me – tee hee!
  • subletted my apartment to a student who did grad school in London
  • found that people always liked giving gifts; they always forget my mantra of presence > present
  • sponsored Rekuytn instead of participating in the blogathon
  • seemed the most drunk at a number of parties although I was the only one who did not drink alcohol!
  • argued about alcohol too many times this year, regretted bringing the topic into conversation every single time
  • returned to my senior high school mindset – there is always a silver lining in every gray cloud
  • learned what spooning meant – yes I am a naive little girl
  • am a ENFJ!!! Okay, I just had to throw in a web quiz
  • got an A…in….LINGUISTICS
  • have been used extensively as a source of computer help
  • got an I\’m blogging this t-shirt
