I’ve been doing this post for the last couple of years. It’s my summary for the year.
1. What did you do in 2011 that you’d never done before?
Lived in a country that doesn’t speak English as a first language for 2 weeks – Taiwan. Dressed up as a zombie ballerina for a professional photoshoot for Aasia‘s birthday – it was loads of fun.
2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year? Read more…

I found this this travel meme online and decided to do it. I know, I haven’t blogged since returning from Taiwan, I’ve been so busy catching up and trying to recover. So this will have to do in the mean time.
1. Where, of all the places you have never been, do you want to go to most?
New York City! I hope if I go there, it lives up to my expectations.
2. Where do you most want to go back to?
I used to want to return to London, but not so sure about that anymore. I think Cardiff, because I lived there for almost a year. I’d like to see what the city is like now, and how things changed over the years.

I came across this really cool personal Twitter data-generated infographic via Syllable, called Visual.ly.
Just login with your Twitter account and you will see that you are what you tweet. You can compare yourself to someone else if you want, but I selected the solo option. I cropped out a little bit of boring info. This was my result: Read more…

I wrapped up 2009 by answering the following questions and thought I’d do the same for 2010.
1. What did you do in 2010 that you’d never done before?
Rode the Gautrain. Attended Fifa world cup matches. Watched soccer matches at fan parks. Cheered for my team outdoors in -2 degree weather. Learned how to blow a vuvuzela.
2. Did you keep your new years’ resolutions, and will you make more for next year?
I don’t do new years’ resolutions.
3. How will you be spending New Year’s Eve?
Probably the same way I spent it last year – sitting online and watching the countdown on www.google.co.za, eagerly awaiting for virtual fireworks to explode on my LED screen. Rad.
4. Did anyone close to you die?
No.
5. What countries did you visit?
Germany.

Got this tag from Hamish. It’s a list of stuff that I should have mentioned to my husband before I got married. You know, the quirks, or whatever you want to call it.
1. I don’t like eating broken Marie biscuits.
2. When I’m upset and say “I’m okay” – I’m not really okay.
3. If I do admit to not being okay, I don’t like talking about it.
4. I can be OCD at times (you should see me butter my toast).
5. I hate doing dishes and laundry.
6. I flip channels and try to follow 2 programs at once.
7. I get distracted easily.
8. I forget to put the milk back into the fridge.
9. I forget to switch off appliances sometimes (I know what you’re thinking).
10. I can get *very* competitive at games and hate losing.
11. When I cook, I don’t like being distracted or want help.
12. When I don’t have food in my stomach, I’m the biggest grouch (you can only imagine what I’m like in Ramadaan).
That’s all I can think of right now.
