2017 Year in Review

1. What did you do in 2017 that you'd never done before?
Um...this year was a tad...boring :-(


2.  Did you keep your new year's resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I didn't make any last year and I won't make any this year. Take it day by day.

 3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
I knew quite of few people who gave birth this year but they aren't super close to me.


4. Did anyone close to you die?
A friend of a friend died earlier this year. A co-worker of mine also died this year. I saw the co-worker before I had to take a day off. The day I came back, he was gone.

 5. What countries did you visit?
 None

 6. What would you like to have in 2018 that you lacked in 2017?
  I'd say my degree but I took a break from school. I'd say my own place. I've had opportunities to do so but read my previous blog to see why I haven't.


7. What date from 2017 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
My birthday. What I wanted to be a gathering of friends turned into just...crap.


8.  What was your biggest achievement of the year?
 Finally buying Kyatto Tenden Yandee, being at my job for a year. Got a smartphone. Surviving my class reunion. Again, this year was a little slow.

9. What was your biggest failure?
Again, this year was a little boring. Not staying on my writing as much as I should. See answer #7 and my Christmas wasn't all that great either.

 10.Did you suffer illness or injury?
Having ear issues. Besides that, nothing really.

11. What was the best thing you bought?
See #8. I've bought quite of few clothes, movies and shows to entertain myself.

 12.  Whose behavior merited celebration?
All of my friends who had babies in 2017. I'll come back to this if I can thinking of anything else.

13. Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed?
Again, America's...

 14.Where did most of your money go?
Groceries and Coffee, most likely

15. What did you get really, really, really excited about?
The release of Megaranger and GoShogun. I got excited for my class reunion.

16. What song will always remind you of 2017?
Honestly, I became obsessed with the Tavares "Deeper in love" this year. I dunno what about the song made me fall in love with it but I did.

 17. Compared to this time last year, are you:
-Happier or sadder: Unhappy medium?
-thinner or fatter:I definitely picked up weight this year.
-Richer or poorer: I ain't rich but I spend a lil' bit...

18.What do you wish you'd done more of?
Figured out the difference between friends and acquaintances, though some of this may be me being hyper sensitive.

 19. What do you wish you'd done less of?
As always, I wish I didn't mope so much but there were times I wish I didn't rely on people. Not only were there times I found out that those people are unreliable but will barely acknowledge the subject about why your pissed. See question #7.

 20. How was your Christmas spent?
Alone

 21. Did you fall in love in 2017?
As always, I fall in love all the time.

22. Did your heart break in 2017?
Yeah but some of it was my fault. I can be too much of a homebody.

 23.  What was your favorite TV program?
Barely watched any tv last year. If I did, it was background noise while I was online.

 24.Did you know anybody who got married?
 No one off the top of my head.

25. What states did you visit in 2017?
The one I live in

 26. Where were you when 2017 began?
I don't even remember. Probably at home.

27. Who were you with?
Probably by myself

28. Where were you when 2017 ended?
In bed

 29. Who were you with when 2017 ended?
Bed and pillows

 30. What was the best book you read?
Not sure but I'm pretty sure it had pictures and was originally from Japan.

31. What was your greatest musical discovery?
80s music produced by Leon Sylvers III. I just love his blend of R&B and New Wave sound. Also listened to a lot of Earth, Wind and Fire. Nothing modern, unfortunately.

 32. What did you want and get?
A waaaaay better phone.

33.What did you want and not get?
I'd say a degree but I took a break from school. It was needed. My biggest worry is will I find the strength to go back.

34. What was your favorite film of this year?
Get Out, hands down!!

35. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
See #7

36. Where did you go on vacation?
 Anyplace that wasn't home

 37. How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2017?
Full Black Hipster...sorta. I think I just threw stuff on and called it a day.

 38. What kept you sane?
I really don't know for this year. Honestly, probably being a goofball at work. Making some laugh was what it took for me to not have a complete breakdown.

 39. Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?
Wrestler Nia Jax. God, she's gorgeous!

 40. What political issue stirred you the most?
Jesus, where do I even start? In gender politics, if the #metoo hashtag and it's meaning didn't suck enough, seeing about 65% off the women in your life use it does. Politics were all around disturbing. A president on the verge of a nervous breakdown is funny until knowing the kind of power he has.

41. Did you have to go to the hospital?
No

42.  How many concerts did you see in 2017?
none

43. Did you have a favorite concert in 2017?
No

 Brittany, Tamika, Illiana, Antoinette. Yes, all females.

 45. Did you do anything you are ashamed of this year?
 Welp, only trying to not be alone on holidays and birthdays.

46. What was your most embarrassing moment of 2017?
Letting a female friend drunkenly berate me on her birthday in public. I literally questioned staying her friend afterward.

47.  Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2017?
see #18

48. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year:
 "Money, have your own
Friends, just for fun
Drugs, don't indulge
Sex with the right person?

Work all your day
Crime does not pay
Love don't apply
Live, to live you must die?"- Tony! Toni! Tone!- "Born not to know"
