@unwind it looked a little bit like this:Image result for fireworks in the alps

 

Not jaded at all @Asche 😛 Fireworks are a novelty, the money definitely could be better spent elsewhere but people care way too much about fancy celebrations 😛

Thank you to everyone for coming along tonight! It was lots of fun 😄 😄 😄

 

@Asche @annabethxchase @unwind @litgym and of course @Bee who has done a fabulous summary and basically ran the night 😉

I thought I might share what I want to achieve next year. And that's actually getting help, seeing someone regularly. I keep putting it off and off and off but at the start of next year, (when everyone gets off their new year holiday break :P) I'm going to go to somewhere, and find someone I'll see regularly. 

Then I'll go from there 😛

That's so great @N1ghtW1ng!! It's comforting to know that someone else is doing the same as me at the start of the year. I'm nervous about it now but I'm 110% sure that in the long-run it will be a great decision for both of us 🙂

N1ghtW1ngPosted 31-12-2018 08:58 PM
Definitely @unwind 🙂 It's something I've tried before but I think I need to stick with it for longer than I have for it to actually have an effect, and I think if I see someone new, it'll be easier to get that "fresh start" I want when seeing someone.
We'll both nail it 😉

Next year I have the chance to throw my hat in the ring to become school captain, and I'm actually considering it. I'd have to give a speech which is a bigggggg thing (I hate speeches as much as everyone else does) but I feel like it would really boost my self-esteem at school & I'll feel more comfortable.

 

Another thing I would like to achieve is to become more social. I want to try make friends outside of school that I can hang out with regularly.

Thanks @N1ghtW1ng, I'm looking forward to finishing and seeing what happens from there 🙂

 

6. What is one (or two, no limit) thing you'd like to achieve by this time next year? 

I would like to be employed 😛

Something to look forward to @Bee 😄

@unwind school captain sounds like an excellent goal! So does being more social 🙂 YOU CAN DO IT! 😄 😄 😄 😄

that sounds great @unwind & @N1ghtW1ng! They sound like very doable and positive goals! 🙂

Yay the next question! Something you're looking forward to about 2019?

... 

...

Honestly I'm really not looking forward to 2019, I will have lots to do and little time to actually do it all in... oh boy, it's going to be fun

(me next year)

 

On the plus side, I still have a few/couple of weeks before it all implodes, so... no worries? 😛

Brooklyn 99 is coming out January 10th 😍

Oh, and Ori and the Will of the Wisps is also coming out in 2019, if I remember correctly. I played the first one a while ago, and was just blown away by the music and art design. Here's hoping the sequel lives up to the reputation!

I've been teaching my younger cousin how to swim, and he swam by himself for the first time this year! It seems like a really small thing but he had so much fear of swimming and it was nice to see him overcome that 🙂

(the first gif is Ninjago, for those of you who are somehow still unaware of it 😛 It had another season this year so... yay!)

Thanks @litgym! I hope you have a good new years eve too 🙂 Feel free to jump in and out however much you like, no pressure to answer questions at all! 😄

@annabethxchase all pumped up! 😄 😄 (The LEGO Movie reference Cat LOL) Those are some excellent things that made you smile! Well done on managing your school marks too! We're proud of you too 🙂

@unwind oh that is a fabulous thing!! It's wonderful that you're teaching your cousin to swim, I'm glad that it's going well for the both of you 😄 😄

Absolutely jump in and out @litgym

@annabethxchase this community is amazing!

@Asche that is amazing! I love your photoshopping on that one 😛

So many good movie and new songs this year @N1ghtW1ng 😄

AschePosted 31-12-2018 07:54 PM

It wasn't photoshopped @Bee, hahahaha, which was part of what made doing it so tricky (trust me, I'd have framed it better if it were). We (or more accurately, one of my friends) basically rigged up a set of LED lights to a circuitboard with some jpgs loaded into it so it would flash colours as we walked the LEDs from one position to another - basically drawing, but with light! Incredibly vexing when it wouldn't work the way we envisioned it, but the trial and error gave us all a good excuse to spend time together and bond over the past year 🙂

What is something that made you smile in 2018
Hmmm, The first thing would be the support I've seen day in, day out of RO's community but another thing would've been maintaining my school marks, I thought because I'd had a bad year, my grades would also suffer but they didn't and that made me proud 🙂
