A blog? From moi? Surely it's an omen! 2012 predictions must be true...
Oh well it's been fun :P
Anyway, yush it's December, another year nearly gone, gosh it goes by so fast doesn't it, where does the time go?
How has 2011 been for you lot? It's been a pretty interesting year for me, it's had ups and downs and seen plenty of change for me. I've seen myself redoing a module I missed some work on last year. I've been able to spend far more time with my bf after he moved up here to attend the neighbouring city's university. I've taken part in activities and gatherings that I've only recently been able to get into. I've tried new foods, some good and some bad. I've made new friends, both online and in person. Enjoyed new films, games and music. And as mixed as some of the things have been this year, I can say that for the most part I've enjoyed it, it's been a very different, turbulent year and the change doesn't shown any sign of stopping for now. So, as difficult as the following year seems to be showing itself, I can honestly say I look forward to it. I've scoured the tip of the iceberg, now I'm hungry to explore the rest.
If I had to summarise:
My fav food of this year would have to be sushi, since I recently found a liking for the stuff, a shame I can't get it more often (well, rather a shame I can't get the proper quality stuff more often).
I'm not entirely sure what my fav film of this year would be, possibly The Inbetweeners (as much as I don't like the series I have to say I loved the film) or Johnny English Reborn (another genius of a comedy).
Musically I find this year's been very exciting, I've made plenty of discoveries both new and old, and we've seen lots of interesting and great releases. My top ten albums that I've listened to this year would probably have to be:
- SebastiAn - Total
- Rolo Tomassi - Eternal Youth
- Pictureplane - Thee Physical
- Battles - Gloss Drop
- Kate Bush - 50 Words For Snow
- Mayer Hawthorne - How Do You Do
- Balam Acab Wander/Wonder
- James Blake - James Blake
- Mr. Oizo - Stade 2
- David Lynch - Crazy Clown Time
As for the rest of the year, I have planned simply to survive, do at least a little bit of studying and at least get a viewing of a flat or other place since myself and a friend are currently in the process of looking for a place to share together. So, if everything goes nicely, by summer next year I'll have finally moved out and be out on my own, figuratively speaking. :P
So yeah, in summary a fun and interesting year full of change, with signs that next year will be just as interesting and full of upheaval. Hope 2011 has been at least decent to you all too.
