6. What would you like to have in 2005 that you lacked in 2004? More projects close to my home.

7. What date from 2004 will remain etched upon your memory, and why? 27. October because the last project was over.

8. What was your biggest achievement of the year? I survived my project and remained sane.
I taught myself how to do photomanips and I re-learned programming (Visual Basic, but hey, it worked!). I even started with French again! Also, I did cook for a bunch of 20 people and

9. What was your biggest failure? Once again not really having contact with my flatmates. Resolution: If I go on such projects again, I'll take an apartment of my own.

10. Did you suffer illness or injury? No. I have got to watch my blood pressure, though *sigh*

11. What was the best thing you bought? The K/Mc drawing, because having something original and unique is really an amazing feeling. But our car is a very close second *g*

12. Whose behaviour merited celebration? Hubby. The endless source of good feelings and support. And he can live with all my weirdnesses - truly amazing.

14. Where did most of your money go? Traveling, train rides, DVDs, computers, food, art (hehe), .

16. What song will always remind you of 2004? None in particular.

17. Compared to this time last year, are you:
Happier or Sadder? Happier, because I was home for November and December - last year, I was working in Nuremberg.

22. Did you fall in love in 2004? I fell in love, again and again, with my wonderful hubby :)

23. How many one-night stands? Hmmm, only a multiple-night-stand with a friend (about which my hubby knew in advance and was fine with it). And it was really intense...*sends some kisses along*

24. What was your favorite TV program? I think there was mostly crap, and I barely watched.

25. Do you hate anyone now that you didn't hate this time last year? Not hating, but truly despising that teamleaderess...

37. Who did you miss? Said friend from the multiple-night-stand, because xe's living too far away.

38. Who were the best new people you met? My US friends at KiScon, especially the three closest ones! It was so a wonderful meeting, and is still staying with me.

39. Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2004: It's never too last to start with something completely different or with something about which one always thought that one would be unable to do it.

40. Quote a song lyric that sums up your year: "The power of love, a force from above..." (like every year :)
