OH WOW, so until 5 minutes ago, I hadn't updated this blog since I did this survey last year. MY FUCKIN BAD. But this was an LJ tradition, I think I've filled this out every year since I was like 15?????? So let's continue!



1. What did you do in 2018 that you'd never done before?
WAS UNEMPLOYED FOR LIKE 6 WEEKS !! First time in my adult life wtf. Went to Disney World! Got an EKG. Got an epidural (and then other one!). Got wasted drunk on the Warner Brothers backlot. Won a settlement! Broke my glasses in a pit. Got to attend a record release party at Jose Mangin's studio.

2. Did you keep your New Year's resolutions for 2018? Will you make more for 2019?
This time last year I was still reeling from my car accident and trying to pick up the pieces of my goddamn life and I wasn't about to make resolutions. All I wanted for 2018 was to keep my head above the water AND I LIKE, I GUESS I JUST BARELY MADE IT. It was genuinely the worst year of my fucking life, wowie.

So 2019? idk I kinda got my dream job that I've wanted since I was a teenager and I start on January 6th. I'm dying of anxiety cause I'm so paranoid that it's a terrible idea that I'll hate it and I was romanticizing it this whole time but I GUESS WE'LL FIND OUT. So, resolution? Keep my chin up, do my best, make the most of this opportunity, take lots of photos. I'm gonna be going days at a time without wifi so I'm also hoping it'll be an amazing excuse to work on my fanfics (MAYBE EVEN MY NOVEL LOL) without the internet distracting me! Like The Shining. Get that shit DONE.

3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
No, but my friend Raph got a new cat so that counts I think. =P

4. Did anyone close to you die?
Tumblr, RIP.

I feel super silly cause I've done this survey every year for like, idk, probably at least 15 years on LiveJournal LMAO and I posted it here last year right around when I joined DW and then I only made two other entries all year. OOPS. But I still gotta do it, it's tradition!



1. What did you do in 2017 that you'd never done before?
I got my own apartment! Like MY OWN like no roommates! WILD! I got in a car accident (where I was the driver--I was in one when I was a teenager when I wasn't driving) and totaled my fucking car! (When I opened DW just now there was a drafted entry about this that I never finished writing cause it's just such a fucking shitshow I don't have the energy to talk about it.) Went to an enormous demonstration to protest the President of the United States LOL. I started a podcast with my vampire frands! I FILLED A WHOLE DRAWING BOOK WITH LEGIT DRAWINGS AND NOT JUST BULLSHIT DOODLES. I got to see Rammstein FROM THE PIT HOLY SHIT. Bought marijuana legally. Saw, touched, and held a dead baby.

2. Did you keep your New Year's resolutions for 2017? Will you make more for 2018?
I didn't make real resolutions last year except that I wanted to try attempting a NaNo-like project in January and I wanted to get into a better creative routine. I think I did that! I didn't finish my novel still cause I'm a complete clown and I keep writing fanfiction instead of working on it LOL! but I did started a Facebook group for the NaNo project and I met a lot of really motivational creative writers and it had a really really profound effect on my productivity!!! I've written more this year that I have since I was a teenager and it feels so good. It's sort of the FB group but also has a lot to do with making friends in VC fandom and the amazing feedback loop we all give each other for making fanworks, it's really inspiring!!!

But anyway for 2018! I don't really like making resolutions but I do hope to get a better job this year! I was gonna start job hunting after Christmas, I decided that a few months ago, but since I totaled my car it really threw a wrench in my plans cause now I have to figure out how to find jobs and get to interviews without a car. But I'm trying! I'm gonna do my best!

3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
My friend Holly did! She's one of my oldest internet friends! I met her on LJ when I was like 14 I think!!!!

4. Did anyone close to you die?
I wouldn't say we were "close" but a friend that I knew since we were like 6 years old killed himself a few months ago and it was pretty fucked up.

So oh god. I do this survey every year on my LJ for like, the past. 10 years or something. BUT I'VE DEFECTED FROM LJ FINALLY SO HERE IT IS, IN HERE. Let's see what happens.


Post the first sentence of the first entry each month this year.

(I just started here on DW so none of these entries exist here, they're all from my LJ haha)

January: I finally gave up on LJ but I'm like beside myself with bullshit and nonsense so I needed to stop by and unload my feelings for a few minutes.

February: So anyway Sam found us a house in Burbank and signed the lease yesterday.

March: So like. I was hoping to leave this week. I finished working last Thursday, and Friday I drove to Newark to ship my stuff out via Amtrak, and my parents original closing date was today (Tuesday), so my original plan was to finish packing over the weekend at gtfo as soon as I could so that I wasn't in the house while my parents' moving company was here cause that sounded like a terrible experience that I didn't want to be a part of. (This is more than one sentence but they were fragments and would've been out of context lol)

April: Figured I'd pop in and update now that I'm here and mostly settled in.

NO ENTRIES FOR MONTHS

July: So I've settled in pretty well in Burbank, nothing to really complain about thus far.

AND THAT WAS IT LOL WHOOPS SORRY I DITCHED YOU LJ, IT WAS FUN FOR LIKE 15 YEARS.



And then here's a survey that I do every year. I copied it from the one I did in 2015, let's see if I met my goals and how depressing it will be.


1. What did you do in 2016 that you'd never done before?
I drove from New York to California ALL BY MYSELF and it was pretty fucking fun. Hung out backstage at the Whisky (twice!). Visited Los Angeles, which was good because I fucking like MOVED THERE without having ever actually been there. Fucking bold right? Got my first legit full time job, instead of having 2-3 jobs at once. OMG I MET ANNE RICE LOL. And Christopher Rice was there too and we fangirled together. I got my wisdom teeth removed. Had a one night stand. THEN ANOTHER LIKE. 6 DAYS LATER. BECAUSE I AM WILD.

2. Did you keep your New Year's resolutions for 2016? Will you make more for 2017?
I don't think I made any solid ones cause this time last year I was just really focused on getting my shit together to move. BUT I DID MOVE. So there's that. And I don't think I wanna make like legit resolutions for 2017 BUT!!! BUT! I am gonna try to do NaNo in January, because in November I was busy blitz re-reading the Vampire Chronicles lmao.

3. Did anyone close to you give birth?
My old supervisor from my job in New York did, like, 3 days ago. Adorable.

4. Did anyone close to you die?
I mean if David Bowie counts, but no.
