What did you do in 2009 that you’ve never done before? I got my dad to go to Disney World! Hehe

Did you keep your New Year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I never make them. I think it always disappoints. I just try to improve myself when the time is right.

Did anyone close to you give birth? My friend Shannon had her son Aiden. Bryce had his daughter, Macie.

Did anyone close to you die? :-( The Bonk. The best can and friend anyone could ever have. I still cry sometimes when I think of him.

What countries did you visit? I went all over the U.S., but didn't leave it this year.

What would you like to have in 2010 that you lacked in 2009? A full time job (instead of working full time hours with no benefits), a real, serious, boyfriend.

What dates from 2009 will remain etched upon your memory, and why? Nov. 13, The day Bonkers was put to sleep. May 15, when my last College Program ended.

What’s your biggest achievement of the year? Hmmm... I would say being constantly recognized as a good animator and reliable worker by guests and fellow Cast Members.

What was your biggest failure? Andy. Easily.

Did you suffer illness or injury? Haha... Well, when Bullseye threw me and banged up my knee and put me on light duty! Also... Hmmm... I did get a terrible flu on May 14... Moving day! That was awful!

What’s the best thing you bought? Hmmm... I love my new bed!

Where did most of your money go? Haha... basic living expenses? I work at Disney... I just saw how much I made for the entire year... I am right at the poverty line!

What did you get really, really excited about? Going home in August! And taking my dad to Disney World! Where he actually had a decent time! Also, All of December I was excited about going home for two weeks in Jan-Feb!! Getting my first apartment!

What song will always remind you of 2009? Hmm... Probably something from the Bedtime Tunes Podcast. I could listen to that all day.

What do you wish you’d done more of? Work out, spent less money...

What do you wish you’d done less of? Drinking, making out with boys I don't like.

How did you spend Christmas? Working at the Land with Dale.

Did you fall in love in 2009? Love? No. Deep Like? Yes. And it failed (see above).

What was your favorite TV program? House.

Do you hate anyone now that you didn’t hate this time last year? Jason Allen. I'm sorry, but he's not a good influence on people.

What was the best book you read? Memoirs of Cleopatra by Margaret George. Such an amazing novel. I recommend it to everyone who's looking for a good book.

What was your greatest musical discovery? Hmm... Emiliana Torrini? Or maybe Elvis Perkins or Imogen Heap. I love discovering music!

What did you want and get? And apartment. My dad at Disney World.

What did you want and not get? A good man. Face. A trained role...

What was your favorite film of this year? Does either of the RiffTrax Live count? Otherwise? I enjoyed the Hangover, I guess.

What did you do on your birthday, and how old were you? I turned 24. I went to Epcot with Jessica back when we were friends, and we ate at the Garden Grill with Allison and Libby (And Chip, Dale, Mickey Mouse and Pluto!)

What one thing would have made your year immeasurably more satisfying: Having a better roommate, so that I could feel like I actually lived in this apartment rather than just rented a room.

How would you describe your personal fashion concept for 2009? Do basics count? Haha. Black shorts and grey t-shirts! Uhm, but in Real Life... I'm trying to become more fashionable. I've never been very good at it.

What kept you sane? Allison, my job.

What celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most? James Roday... Mmmmm....

What political issue stirred you the most? To be honest, the only politics I really was able to keep up with was work politics. I swear Florida is this weird bubble, where no information gets in, and no one cares what the outside world is doing.

Who did you miss? The Bonk, My parents, Andy,

Who was the best new person you met? I don't know... I get so confused about when I've met people.

Tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2009. I feel like I've spent 2009 learning to take care of myself because no one is looking out for me but me.

Ahh! You live in Florida now? Wow. I live in Florida too! Why on earth did you come here, dear?

Same reason everyone ends up in Florida: Disney. I've worked there for 5 years.

have you always wanted to work at disneyland?

Well when I was a kid I either wanted to be an animator or a voice artist, so I was all over Disney. Then in high school, I wanted to be an actress and wasn't really into Disney. I actually just started working here on a whim. I love it.
