Because I'm awake (why god why, I only had four hours of sleep after the New Year's Party of Neverendingness I threw -- swear to God, I expected it to be over by 3 or 4 AM, and then nobody went to sleep until 9 AM) but can't focus on any of my WIPs, have done that 2003 meme thingy that's been going around.
1. What did you do in 2003 that you'd never done before?
Went off to university! Also, got drunk and did some mildly naughty things. And something supremely stupid whilst sober.
2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don't remember making any last year, and shan't make any this year, either. Neener.
3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
My supervisor at work -- summer job for two years -- had a baby girl in September. I haven't seen them since, though.

5. What countries did you visit?
SPAIN!
6. What would you like to have in 2004 that you lacked in 2003?

Date: 2004-01-02 02:42 pm (UTC)you don't seem like the cutting type, but, and i could be wrong here, it seems like this was a one time thing, due to the date specific way which you talk about it.... and in that case, it's probably not so bad. certain things, even bad things, make us realise who we are as people.... and everyone has to test the waters....
anyway,
spain! what instrument did you play? or ... did you sing?
