11. If yes, with who? if you have to ask, you'll never know

12. If yes, do they know? he's smart enough to figure that one out

13. Are you still in love with them? .... i'm not "in love" with him, but i still love him. the same way i love all my other friends.

14. Do you regret it? yes and no. it was an experience. that's all you can really chalk it up to in the long run. such is life, ya know?

15. Did you breakup with anyone in 2005? not in the traditional sense of the word

16. Did you make any new friends in 2005? yes, and lost them too

17. Who are your favorite new friends? no favorites... they're all my friends for different good reasons.

18. What was your favorite month of 2005? probably july. i wasnt working because of my foot surgery, but i was still able to enjoy the month. thats not to say july wasnt my least favrotie month too, but it was a memorable month... i digress.

19. Did you travel outside of the US in 2005? no... damn study abraod costing too much >:o

35. Did somebody treat you badly in 2005? haha yes. but whether or not they realized it is a completely different story

36. How much money did you spend in 2005? a lot... as far as im concerned, the surgery cost me thousands, since i wasnt working the whole summer

37. What was your proudest moment of 2005? quitting bertucci's. it felt so liberating to give my 2-week notice after almost 4 years in that building. not to say i won't miss it dearly, but im so proud of myself for putting my foot down and saying that enough is enough. oh, and getting my first tattoo and industrial, both of which 1. look great, and 2. made me realize im such a glutton for pain, its ridiculous ;)

38. What was your most embarrassing moment of 2005? too many to rehash. i do a lot of embarrassing things to myself. but they were all goofy-embarrassing. like tripping into that pizza. or accidentally calling former governor john rowlamd a moron to his face. or getting way too drunk at koji on my birthday. or... gah.

39. What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you? for the 21st, i spent the night with the sisters and lauren. i got drunk, was silly and mixed my poisons (yeah, who in their right mind drinks a glass of wine, a white russian, beer, AND martinis?! moron on the loose)

40. If you could go back in time to any moment of 2005 and change it, what would it be? even if i could go back and change something, i think the end result would still be the same, so my attempts would be futile. better to worry about changing the present, no?

41. Compared to this time last year, are you:
Happier or sadder – happier
Older or wiser - definitely wiser
Thinner or fatter - the same, actually
Richer or poorer - poorer

42. What do you wish you'd done more of? hung out with my friends (see #43)

43. What do you wish you'd done less of? worked. if i hadnt worked as much in the latter part of the year, i would have 1. had time to hang out with my firneds, and 2. done well in school this past fall

44. What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying? i can't say that type of thing on here!!

45. What are your plans for 2006? kick ass in school. not overwork myself. if i can graduate, then head out to san diego and be an intern at the san diego magazine. get an apartment. be honest with myself and everyone else. get a puppy. actually start going to the gym. make a serious attempt at becoming a model. take care of myself before i have another breakdown. smile more often. yeah, i think thats it.
