As part of the blog.de advent calendar (which mostly auf Deutsch unfortunately, apart from a few which include cYzzie, nittygritty, damdam, sarwaz and philippe1978), each day one of the 24-strong team is posting their year in review. Today is my day...
* 2007 -->
1). I turned older than 18 years...
I'm turning 24 in four days...
2). I registered with blog.co.uk
Nope, I did that on May 17th 2006.
3). I went to a concert.
Aye, quite a few.
4). I rocked out at a concert.
Actually, I didn't. I'm rather quiet and usually just listen...
5). I cried.
Probably more than any other year. And, for the first time in my adult life, not in connection with football.
6.) I laughed at lot.
Of course! But then again, I always do. 
7.) I was in hospital
Nope, I'm indestructable. 
8). I moved to another house/apartment.
Yup, three times. I'm a nomad. Finally got a place I'm happy to be in relatively long-term though.
9). I got wasted.
Nearly every day.
10). I wore a costume on carneval.
I think this is a question aimed towards Germans...no, I didn't.
11). I was in London/Berlin/Paris/Rome/Tokyo
Only the second one.
12). I had sex.
Yes, quite a lot actually.
13). I fell in love.
Wildly, uncontrollably, deeply.
14). Someone broke my heart.
Yes. It was the first time though, so that's the hardest one out of the way.
15). I lost someone special.
In terms of death, no, thank goodness.
16). I travelled abroad.
Quite a good year for that too: Ireland, Germany, Italy, Czech Rep, Poland, Slovakia, Scotland, England. Does Germany count as abroad? Or does Ireland for that matter?
17). I had an argument with my best friend.
Nothing unusual there, we argue all the time. It only serves to strengthen our friendship.
18). I had a big birthday party.
Nope, big birthday parties aren't much fun, unless they're not mine.
19). I met someone really interesting.
Quite a few. *cough November 30th cough*
20). I was really angry because of someone.
Yup, it had a lot to do with the effect of number 14 on number 13.
21). I wrote a poem, painted a picture.
Neither, I'm not very creative.
22). I went to a festival.
Not this year.
23). I broke my arm/leg/anything.
See 14 above.
24). I got an addition to my family.
No, and hopefully not for many more years.
25). I went swimming naked in a lake.
No, I can't swim. But I didn't do anything naked in a lake. Not even flounder. I did flounder in a lake almost fully clad, so that must count for something.
26). I slept outside during summer.
Nope. Too many mozzies.
27). I built a snowman.
No, but the year's not over yet...
28). I bought a new mobile/computer/TV.
New mobile and I got a free TV, does that count?
29). I moved from my parent’s home.
Did that quite some time ago.
30). I set a trend.
I think so, I make new German words every day for nittygritty to pick up!
31). I had an affair with a member of a band.
Affair demeans it somewhat.
32). I used hair extensions.
Of course not! Although I did get a rather brutal haircut a couple of weeks ago that provoked Blaubeerina to encourage me to sue my hairdresser. I think it's ok though...
33). I was insulted.
I'm a teacher, of course I was insulted by the unfailing determination of some people not to learn.
34). I made new friends.
Some rather special ones too.
35). I hurt a good friend.
Yeah, I think so.
36). I thought I was going crazy.
Very much so. I feel that that time is behind me now though.
37). I made "insider jokes".
Who the hell made this survey? That's a stupid question. I don't even know what it means!
38). I was on a boat.
A canoe, and hated every moment of it. It was with an idiotic 12 year old on camp, who thought it would be hilarious to rock it as much as possible. As a non-swimmer, I did not like it.
Oh, and the blog staff party was on a big boat that went all around Berlin. Much fun.
39). I wanted to scream.
Quite often. Usually caused by late or crowded trains.
40). I threw up.
Yes, because of this.
41). I spent more than 500 Euros on clothes.
I think I spent a maximum of €20 on clothes. Oh feck, unless football jerseys count as clothes...in which case I don't want to think about it. Probably not though.
42). I spent more than 100 Euros on cosmetics.
No, my beauty is all natural.
43). I got a piercing.
Nope, hate them.
44). I changed my life completely.
Hmm. I suppose I did, without really noticing. In lots of tiny little ways. That's normal though, I suppose.
45). I flunked out of school/I left school.
No, but I may have caused others to...
46). I took a lot of pictures of myself.
No more than usual.
47). I create a new recipe.
Mmmm, I made some pretty original sandwiches, if that counts.
48). I went by plane.
Lost track of how many times.
49). I slept in many times and was late.
I'm usually pretty punctual, but hangovers sometimes challenge my punctuality.
50). I got asked a lot of stupid questions.
I'm the English Support, I got more stupid questions than you could possibly imagine. Erm...but of course, all of them are very important to us here at BCUK!
Happy Christmas!
