Year In Review
Happy New Year!!!
2004 has come to an end and now we are in a brand new year. 2005 can be the start of new beginnings and changes.... Reflecting on the past year I decided to do my 2004 year in review
What did you do in 2004 that you'd never done before? Opened up and exposed my complete self to someone
Did you keep your New Years resolutions, and will you make more for next year? Yes and yes.
Did anyone close to you give birth? My little cousin and my linesister
Did anyone close to you die? uncle
What countries did you visit? only Canada I think... school threw me off
What would you like to have in 2005 that you lacked in 2004? A job I love
What date from 2004 will remain etched upon your memory, and why? July 24, 2004. Opening Ceremony of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. National Convention in Las Vegas... you had to be there to fully understand the magnitude of the moment and to see the sea of white
What was your biggest achievement of the year? graduating with honors from Syracuse University with a Master of Science in Public Relations
What was your biggest failure? allowing some toxic people to enter my life
Did you suffer illness or injury? fortunately no
What was the best thing you bought? My vacation package to Miami (I sooo needed that getaway and alone time)
Whose behavior merited celebration? my family for spitting out three graduates on the same weekend.
Whose behavior made you appalled and depressed? more appalled then depressed, but a particular family member
Where did most of your money go? Syracuse University
What did you get really, really, really excited about? Moving out of Syracuse
What song will always remind you of 2004? Crazy In Love... probably came out in late 03 but every fun time I had this year we danced to that song
Compared to this time last year, are you:
a) happier or sadder? Happy
b) thinner or fatter? same (maybe a tad thinner)
c) richer or poorer? poorer (again thanks Syracuse)
What do you wish you'd done more of? Me time
What moment will you always remember? The BGSA slumber party... with Nicole trying to do the running man, Chevonne playing Beyonce, Khaya being late as usual, Larhonda walking around in her house shoes....
What do you wish you'd done less of? Shopping (I was overboard)
Did you fall in love in 2004? Nope
How many one-night stands? no one night stands
What was your favorite TV program? Chapelle Show... kept us sane in Syracuse
Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year? actually I don't
What was the best book you read? Your Best Life Now by Joel Osteen
What was your greatest musical discovery? Maroon 5
What did you want and get? my degree
What did you want and not get? A new president.
What was your favorite film of this year? hmm I enjoyed "Ray" a lot
What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you? I worked (my office had cake and junk food for me) then I had dinner with my family @ Sequoia in DC and then I went to NY for the weekend... I turned 23
What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying? Dealt with certain relationships better
How would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2004? Wear what looks good and fits my personality
What kept you sane? Friends and Family
What political issue stirred you the most? I'm not sure I can pick one. Probably better that I don't answer anyway.
Who did you miss? My dad especially at graduation
Who was the best new person you met? In 04 hmm. Mr. Battle, I knew of him but I never met him. He is really just a blessing and inspiration and has helped me through A LOT.
Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2004.
The race is not given to the swift nor the strong but to those who endureth to the end
Quote a song lyric that sums up your year. "Deep in my heart the answer it was in me. And I made up my mind to define my own destiny" Lauryn Hill
