Reverb11 Day 20 – 23

Reverb11 Day 20 – 23

Day 20  Friendship – What kind of a friend were you in 2011? What kind of a friend do you want to be in 2012? 

I have definitely been the absent friend when it comes to most people in my life; I just did not feel like socializing or being friendly and mostly stayed away from people.  There is only one friendship I have worked on and that is with my BFF.  We have gotten even closer than before and have been sharing more and spending more time together.

In 2012 I want to try and stay connected to the friends who really are friends and completely drop the ones I don’t need in my life.  Life is too short to spend with people who isn’t worth it.

Day 21  Party Time – Tell us about the “best” party you attended this year. 

Like I said above, I just didn’t feel much like socializing during 2011, so I have said no to so many invitations or simply just didn’t show up when the time for the party came, that I can’t actually remember if I attended any parties this year.  I do miss the party scene and I miss dancing most of all, but I just did not quite feel like celebrating during 2011.

Day 22   Passion – If you could quit your day job and your quality of life wouldn’t change, what would you do?

I would love to quit my job and just become a full time student.  I love studying, even though lately I haven’t been that good at it, but I figure without the stress of having to work full time, and wondering where the money is going to come from to pay for the degree, studying would be my passion.  I want to know everything from accounting to psychology to archaeology and even law.

Day 23  Travel – Did you visit anywhere new this year?  Any plans to travel next year?

I didn’t visit anywhere new but I did go to Cape Town and the West Coast for a couple of days.  I love the Western Cape, it is my favourite part of South Africa and I will never get tired of going there.  I have no idea where 2012 is going to take me, but I really hope I will get to travel some place new.  I definitely need a good holiday.

Things I like at the moment

Things I like at the moment
  • Bubblegum Otees cereal.  Oh my word it is delicious, and I don’t normally like cereal
  • Little marshmallows in my coffee at night, it makes me think of when I was younger and my dad used to put it in my Milo in the winter
  • Friends! I got my hands on the whole series and am loving watching it from the beginning.  I have missed that show something crazy
  • Not having SABC.  My tv cable is not connected to the aerial so I have no SABC (and no DSTV either), but it made me realise how much time I spent watching horrible shows and I love that I now have more time in the evenings to do other things
  • Puzzles.  I unpacked one of the boxes that was in storage and discovered all my old puzzles and have started building one last night.
  • My new Manhattan Sleeper Couch.  It’s so comfy and pretty, I absolutely love it.
  • My new Hello Kitty pajama dress.  I’m going through a Hello Kitty phase
  • Living alone!  Oh, how I missed having my own space.  Coming home and having everything exactly as I left it, being able to do what I want when I want, and not having any rotting dishes in the kitchen sink.  Pure bliss, I tell you!
