First entry of the New Year in Rambling sane thoughts of the terminally me

Appropriately enough for me it’s a survey about last year.

1. Was 2014 a good year for you? Why?
   It was a mixed bag. There are some very good elements to it but there were also a lot of failures. Over all I’d give it 6 out of 10, would not relive again.

2. What was your favourite moment of the year?
   I think it’d be meeting Kathleen.

3. What was your least favourite moment of the year?
   Massive fight with my brother in august. I posted on it already so we shan’t revisit it here.

4. Where were you when 2014 began?
   Er… actually, I’m not too sure. I think last year I was at home in Penrith on New Year. Yes, actually I was. So at my parents house. Probably with a Gin and Tonic in hand.

5. Who were you with?
   Mum, Dad, Danny.

6. Where were you when 2014 ended?
   My house in Newcastle.

7. Who were you with when 2014 ended?
   Danny. Was going to spend it with friends but stayed out till 10 and then wanted to come home.

8. Did you keep your New Year’s resolutions of 2014?
   Most of them.

9. Do you have any New Year’s resolutions for 2015?
   Same as 2014. Have fun, be happy, stay positive, stay off the cigs, try to lose some weight, try to find a better job, try not to wreck my relationship.

10. Did you fall in love in 2014?
    I wouldn’t say we’re at the “in love” stage yet no. I found someone super hot who’s adorable and for some weird reason thinks I’m amazing.

11. If yes, with who?
    Kathleen.

12. If yes, do they know?
    N/A

13. Are you still in love with them?
    N/A

14. You regret it?
    N/A

15. Did you break up with anyone in 2014?
    I more got broken up with but yes.

16. Did you make any new friends in 2014?
    Loads, there’s always room for more friends.

17. Who are your favourite new friends?
    Steve, Jessi, Other Steve, Andy and Kathleen.

18. What was your favourite month of 2014?
    I think probably December. It’s Christmas and I like Christmas and I got to spend a lot of time with… god I keep going on about her don’t I? Anyways, you know what I mean.

19. Did you travel outside of your country of residence in 2014?
    Yep, went to Ireland in March.

20. How many different states / provinces did you travel to in 2014?
    None, I didn’t go to America.

21. Did you lose anybody close to you in 2014?
    Nope.

22. Did you miss anybody in the past year?
    I always miss people. My Gran; my family when not around; my friends when not around. That sort of thing.

23. What was your favourite movie that you saw in 2014?
    The Lego Movie.

24. What was your favourite song from 2014?
    Didn’t really have one.

25. What was your favourite record from 2014?
    See above.

26. How many concerts did you see in 2014?
    Zip. None. Zero.

27. Did you have a favourite concert in 2014?
    N/A

28. Did you drink a lot of alcohol in 2014?
    Probably too much at the beginning and end of the year. The middle was fairly alcohol-less though.

29. Did you do a lot of drugs in 2014?
    Only the legal ones.

30. How many people did you sleep with in 2014?
    3 or 4.

31. Did you do anything you are ashamed of this year?
    Not really. Not massively big on shame. There’s probably elements of my life I’d have handled better if I had my time over again but apart from that? No.

32. What was the worst lie someone told you in 2014?
    I don’t rightly know. If people want to lie to me I generally assume it’s because they don’t want me to know the truth and if people don’t want to be honest with me that’s their own luck out. I don’t think there were any lies that actively hurt me that much.

33. Did you treat somebody badly in 2014?
    I didn’t try to.

34. Did somebody treat you badly in 2014?
    Hmmm, that’s probably a matter of perspective. Objectively? Nah, not really.

35. How much money did you spend in 2014?
    Too much.

36. What was your proudest moment of 2014?
    Proudest? Hmmmm. Don’t know. Getting a years no claims bonus on my car?

37. What was your most embarrassing moment of 2014?
    Not big on embarrassment either. Sorry, this is turning into a really dull quiz, isn’t it?

38. If you could go back in time to any moment of 2014 and change something, what would it be?
    I’d change not winning the 100 million lottery rollover into winning it.

39. What are your plans for 2015?
    That’s basically the same question as “what are your new years resolutions” which you’ve already asked. See above.
