Would you like constructive comments? No thanks.
Is this a WIP (Work In Progress)?No.
Notes: People might think it a bit of a strange portrait of her, but it's based on my observations of the third movie. Watch the young actress at the table with Parvati, and the one with the close group of Gryffindors when Harry wakes up from his Dementor-induced unconsciousness.

Well - it's the last day of the year.

I can't help but look back on the year I've had, and, well - it's not been a wonderful one. There've been wonderful moments in it, which I'll list below in a tick, but on the whole, it's been a year of healing for me. I emerge from it battered, healed, and a helluva lot wiser. And rejuvinated. I am once more the bold, excitable, optimistic woman I used to be.

Though, it's going to be 2005 in like, twelve or so hours. I really do feel like I've been mugged by Father Time and the bastard took my early twenties with him. Prick. Oh well. I have my health, my family, my cats - I'm happy, I really am.

What I did this year:

- Wrote some awesome songs.
- Did some beautiful pictures.
- Met some awesome people.
- Saw some excellent movies.
- Fell totally and utterly in love.
- Wrote some awesome stories.
- Got a really great haircut.
- Bought some very lovely clothes.
- Had really awesome work experience.
- Kissed a lot of wonderful people.
- Played with more people's pink bits in the span of twelve months than any other twelve months of my life.
- Did remarkably well in a test I'd thought I'd piss down my leg.
- Applied for TAFE College. Whether I get in is next year's story.
- Sang in front of a group of people and had the applause drown me. (Thank you, frequenters of Loop Nightclub (rip for now) ).
- Took too much drugs and promptly gave up said drugs because they're not fun for me.
- Drank far too much alcohol than is healthy.
- Had an entire year's worth of my mother's brilliant cooking.
- Actually learnt the meaning of that stupid adage "If you love someone, let them go."
- Made the most of my three beautiful children - er - cats. :)

The only thing I regret about this year was that I didn't manage to buy a new pair of comfortable and attractive shoes. I mean it. I want a pair of strappy leather sandals, NOT pointy with a back on it and no pointy heels. Is that too much to ask?! It's on my to-do list for next year. - Find good sandals.

Love you all, kisses to you all. Let's party! (and raise money for those lost).
