What did you do in 2013 that you'd never done before?
I did a whole lot this year that I'd never done before. Moved in with my husband & cats, moved to Japan (my first out of the country travelling), I got to hangout with capybaras, learned (very minimal) Japanese...
Did you keep your new years resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I didn't make any resolutions last year. I still haven't decided if I have any for 2014.
Did anyone close to you give birth?
Yes! One of my besties gave birth to a beautiful girl, Emmi, and another friend became a father to a beautiful boy!
Did anyone close to you die?
I suffered two very big losses in 2013. My childhood cat, Midnight, and my close friend, Danny.
What countries did you visit?
Does Japan count?
What would you like to have in 2014 that you lacked in 2013?
More social stuff. Make more friends and hang out with the ones I've already made out here.
What dates from 2013 will remain etched upon your memory, and why?
March 8, the day I quit smoking!
What was your biggest achievement of the year?
Working with a brand for the first time and growing my blog!
What was your biggest failure?
Giving into my anxiety and letting it keep me from doing the things I wanted.
Did you suffer illness or injury?

What was the best thing you bought?
My blog layout. I love having it customized.
Where did most of your money go?
According to Quicken, savings/paying off debt and groceries.
What songs will always remind you of 2013?
Wrecking Ball (the Chester See version), Bad For My Body by Deap Vally, Money by Ivy Levan, My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light 'Em Up) by Fall Out Boy, I Love It by IconaPop, Dance Apocalyptic by Janelle Monae, Renaissance Girls by Oh Land, Upside Down by Paloma Faith...
What do you wish you'd done more of?
Everything. I wish that I had explored more of Kyushu, blogged more, wore makeup more, took more pictures, made more friends!
What do you wish you'd done less of?
Let anxiety slow me down.
How did you spend Christmas?
I hung out with my friends that live in the apartment below me. We watched Rudolph and played Spite and Malice and ate roast beast!

Over and over again with my husband, Ryan.

What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you?
Ryan brought me donuts and I turned 24.
What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying?
Not having to switch so many medications since Medical out here doesn't supply the ones I took in the states.
What kept you sane?
My hubby, the gremlins, my friends out here, baking, and makeup.
Which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most?
Hannah Hart from My Drunk Kitchen!

Kitschmas 2013!
Christmas this year was on the 26th instead of the 25th cos Ryan had to work from 0500-1900. Here's a bunch of pictures of our decor and the things we did and got!
 |
| The Christmas cards that made it here before Christmas! |
 |
| Our tiny space of decorations. Complete with singing/dancing/blinking tree, Fresh Balsam candle, candy dish, and R2D2 and Grumpy Cat snow globes! |
 |
| This Dalek can't exterminate cos its plunger and egg beater broke off during its travels! |
 |
| The famous coffee cake my mom makes every year! I didn't have a tube pan, so instead I made giant muffins. |
 |
| Lil BUB's Magical Yule Log on while we opened presents! Good job, BUB! |
 |
| There were no chocolate oranges out here in Japan, so my parents sent one for each of us! |
 |
| Clearly my husband and I like the same things and have the same ideas for gifts... |
 |
| The "big gift" I got for Ryan (and also for me)! |
 |
| The "big gift" Ryan got for me! Leave me your 3DS friend codes in the comments! Mine is 5258 0424 3043. |
 |
| Keeping with one of my personal traditions and watching The Nightmare Before Christmas! |
 |
| Christmas dinner! |
 |
| Ending off the post with the amazing jokes I got in my Christmas cracker! |
I hope you all had a wonderful and safe holiday! (Also, I hope you all have an extraordinary 2014!)
