The year that just passed

Sooo...

I'm sitting in the library at school without anything to do because I have forgotten my homework. I know, I'm a genius.

I don't know if you ladies are aware but this year is 2011 which means that there was an entire year before it called 2010. Surely with an entire year of time I should be able to come up with a few stories. Surely...

(I made the excuse before that because I had lost my iPod I'd also lost record of awesome events but now I have it an I realized that there's only school stuff in there. Whoops! Also everything smells like the fish I cut open this morning in biology lab and it's nasty!)

My 2010 started with hanging out with you ladies at G-Patz's house. I believe we were playing Taboo with a certain British gentleman while avoiding Demetrius's cries of "You guys are just sooo awesome! I mean, like, SOOOO awesome! *mumbles in German*"

A pretty good start to the year, all in all.

Soon after that, entirely too soon on my opinion, school started back up again and I started my second semester of university. My thoughts when I woke up on that first day went something like "This time I know what to expect and I know how this works so I'm going to be so much better at it and this semester will be fantastic!" My thoughts after five minutes of my first class, calculus, went more like "?:$;):!:&£~€#... Well f***!"

Academically, I had a few firsts in 2010.
I received my first university honor roll certificate.
I finished my first year of university.
I failed my first (and hopefully last) class ever.
I wrote my first one-night essay (and did pretty well on it).

Also in the span of university time I discovered that being an avid tea lover might not be such a bad thing.

Another something I do have to say about my first year of university that has nothin to do with school is how fantastic you three were as friends. Whenever I came home you dropped everything and came to see me. I was stunned and immeasurably grateful every time, you ladies have no idea. I especially remember the day I can home from my uncle's funeral and you all came over. I remember laughing so hard and forgetting for a few hours that anything hurtful could happen in the world.

I want to thank you so much for that.

In May I had my entirely sober 19th birthday. For all the fuss about absolutely legal birthdays there has been in the past mine was rather different. It was our high school's music concert night so all of you were going to be there and because I wanted to see you on my birthday I had to drive myself to the school (hence completely sober). After te concert we went to Wendy's with a few other people who I didn't know and the three of you sat in silence and watched as some beefy football player blatantly tried to look down my dress. Have I mentioned how great of friends you are?

The year 2010 was also the year we got the pants but, as I have already written about that in a fair amount of detail I'll let you find that story somewhere else.

In July of 2010 I wrote my first fanfiction as a birthday present for Dawn. I had set it up for a sequel but I haven't written the next chapter yet. Wait! Is that a New Year's resolution I just saw? Hmm...

2010 was also the year I joined YouTube. I don't make videos as of yet but I certainly enjoying those people to whom I've subscribed. I've become a beardlover and a nerdfighter in the past year and I don't plan on changing either of those titles anytime soon.

I met my girlfriend Lyra for the first time in August of 2010. When I first met her I had only half a clue of how things would work between us. Sure, I knew the basics of what I was supposed to do but actually doing it was an entire other matter! Gradually I learned what she liked and the proper way to handle her (she seems satisfied and I certainly am)! She practically purrs when I fill her up...

I think thats enough innuendos for now, don't you?

In September of 2010 I headed back to school and have been absorbed in that experience ever since. There have also been achievements for me in that semester like:
- surviving my own cooking
- writing my second one-night essay and doing even better at it
- and finding a club that I really enjoy.

I brought in 2010 in the nerdiest and best way possible, by watching extended edition LOTR Return of the King bonus features through the stroke of midnight and watching all three of the extended edition DVDs with my ladies on January 1st.

I think it's going to be an eventful year ladies, let's enjoy it!

Love,

Dina

  1. I know this is still a draft posting and will be edited later but can I make some suggestions? they are as follows : "G-Patz" (not R-PAtz EWW),
    you also spelled "grateful" wrong and I think you meant "nerdiest new years"

    as to COMPLIMENTS - soo many. Demetrius was funny! I forgot about that! and Taboo with the Brit was a ton of fun aussi! (random french...)
    DQ - is that the time we wrote napkin notes to the cashier or was that a different time?
    and watching guys stare down your shirt is amusing:P

    your description of Lyra nearly made me PEE! you shouldn't do that to me.

    I enjoyed my birthday present very much.

    and of COURSE we dropped everything to come see you. WE love you crazy amounts - you know that! It was strange having 3 but not 4. So when you were home we had to make it amazing. :) thanks for the post!

    Liklihood that Michele will do a new year's post? ba ha ha

  2. I also loved reminising about Demetrius' exploits...

    Dawn: Does anyone speak German here?
    Brit: Um, pretty sure Demetrius does.
    Dawn: Yeah, I know, and that is the problem...

    Sooooo funny.

    I concur with the dropping of everything because we love you! Honestly second semester I didn't have a lot to drop :P But whether I did or not it was always waaay more important to see you.

    I put it at about 15-1 that Michele will do a legit New Year's post. If she reads my high odds, maybe that will act as incentive ;)

  5. Fixed! Now with extra special links!

    OMG! "...third generation intrument of enjoyment!"! Funniest thing! Gah! I can't believe I forgot!

    You guys are right about the Wendy's but wrong about the love notes. That was another time which inspired this time.

    I'm glad you guys all love Lyra, it means a lot to me. :P
