So, what did I do in 2009? In no particular order, some low/high lights of 2009:
- Fall in love with Helsinki and declare it home despite the tininess of the city, the freezing cold, the high cost of living and ignorance of the native language
- Enjoy my job
- Fall victim to common cold
- Do not fall victim to H1N1
- Go to Paris and fall in love with the city
- Donate at least 12 bag loads of clothes to charity
- Got for music concerts
- Watch Cirque De Soleil
- Celebrate a Finnish Christmas
- Be honorary god mother to cats
- Do a tai-chi course
- Shoot a shotgun, Glock and AK-47
- Go to Dharamsala
- Take parents on a weekend vacation
- Be rude to people who pity me for being single
- Be friends with a 3 year old even though we do not speak a common language ( unless you count shrieks as a language)
And more importantly, made really great friends this year. Yes, the best thing about 2009 are the friendships that the year brought with it. I would never say no to any part of the year, even the bad parts, as it brought a lot of amazing people into my life. I have been very lucky to have an abundance of friends, far away and near, of many years and relatively new, very young and very young at heart.
Enjoy 2010 everyone, and keep smiling!
