New Year Thread - Welcome 2013!

[HoennDreamer]

I never liked KFC either. Though I never worked there, personally the food is really mediocre, especially the biscuits.

Food isn't that bad, well the chips aren't

But i just hate working there.. my boss always changes my shifts and never informs me and she lies about it afterwards.. GAHH!

[Yuppirox]

2012 was okay. It was fun both online and offline, but tiresome when school got involved. We also got 2 kittens. :3

I'm not really looking forward to 2013, oddly enough... It's my graduation year but I'm not really that excited about it.

[EmphaticPikachu]

2012 was...an interesting year. Not as groundbreaking as 2010, but there were some...events this year. Especially associated with school.

...but it was fun, and i hope the years to come will be as well. Happy early new year everybody!

...lets just hope this years new year's day is not like last years...*shiver* god that might of been my worst day ever...full of feels and annoyances... and my new years resolution caved in on itself...le sigh. lol

[Neon Squirtle]

2012 has generally been good for me, and I think my resolution for 2013 is to eat less junk food...*eating jumbo pack of bonbons* NEW YEAR HASN'T STARTED YET;DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!! :P

[Rayquaza The First]

2012 for me:

The bad:
was sick intil spring
my dad lost his job
the massive heatwave of the summer
The whole "end of the world due to the mayan calander" nonsense

The good:

my cousin getting married
my other cousin who was born last year turning one
discovering my love of photography

Bring on 2013!

The whole "end of the world due to the mayan calander" nonsense

Yes. This really dampened the mood of this year. Hopefully none of this nonsense ever happens again and the people learn. Let's put this behind us and move on!

Yeah, but let's try not to bring that discussion to this thread. ^_^ We're coming to a new year with new beginnings. ^_^ Let's just forget about all this 2012 "nonsense" shall we?

[your boss]

But now there is a stupid rumor it's going to be in 2016.

I also decided to help the poor/homeless though its not my concern derp

[nathandg0924]

Yeah. That's what I said. Best this be forgotten and we move on with more optimism.

2012 passed by quickly for me...

My resolution is to keep going with my football workout/training all the way until summer. I came up with it myself and so far its been going great! Next year I'm gonna wreck everything on the field!

[Doux]

My New Year's resolution is to increase my aerobic capacity/endurance. :)

[Wishing Star]

One of my New Year's resolutions is to stop procrastinating... on my personal projects.

I don't really find myself procrastinating on homework, but I always find myself putting off spriting and such for later and later times. :/

Hoping on Metallica releasing their new album in 2013, and that it's better than the last few.

So far I've got no reason to not like 2013.

Yeah, looking forward to that! Also new Tinie Tempah album which I'm really excited for

2012 was awesome. I discovered a lot of great music.

2012 passed in the blink of an eye. It was a nice first year of Secondary School. Made new friends, both in-life and online. Growing to be more independant and matured, especially when compared to how much of a kid I was in 2011. Hit a couple of the targets I had set early in 2012. All in all, I'd say 2012 was a rather decent year.

As for 2013, I just only hope that it doesn't get too tough, with streaming coming up next year. I don't usually do New Year's Resolutions before the start of the new year. I like to let a little of the year pass, before I set my tagets for the rest of the year.

I'd also do this for practical purposes. But part of what's fun about making resolutions now is that you get to see what you thought your targets and focuses on the next year were at this time. Then, at the end of next year (or halfway through or something like that), you'd be able to judge just how close you nailed your targets on the last few days of 2012, and see whether or not your focuses were actually reasonably achievable. (:

I agree here as well. Though I already have set some targets for next year, chances are, I might not get to them XD. Definitely as the year progresses, I would make more resolutions, especially if I learn something new or I get to an eye-opener of an event.

Oh, yeah. Something to share about. I was at the Chinatown district of my home city a while ago and for those who don't know, the next Chinese/Lunar new year will be on Feb. 10, 2013 and will be the year of the Water Snake. I don't believe in that stuff but it's in a way interesting to know about especially those who believe in luck.

2012 has been an interesting year for me. I completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Arts and I am taking time off study to work and maybe teach English in South Korea in 2014. I will be aiming to save up enough money to do that throughout 2013. I am hoping to start my own YouTube channel in 2013 as well, as well as losing weight (a very popular resolution I've heard). I am also writing a book as well (I think several members on this forum are doing that)

For New Year's Eve, I will be heading to Docklands for the midnight fireworks (for the past 2 years I went to Federation Square). I will be leaving home after 6pm to take advantage of free travel on public transport.
