Since I have done very little to commemorate 2009 (an undeniably big year for me in a lot of little ways), I'm stealing an idea from a facebook application and expanding on it.
Song of the year: Pro Nails by Kid Sister (Rusko Remix) --Ok, so this song didn't actually come out in '09 but after it was played for us during our hunt for a new apartment, Shayna & I made it our midnight fast food run theme song. Unofficially of course. In reality, anything by Lady Gaga is going to bring back memories from this entire year. And my soundtrack for the year is both albums by Lily Allen.
Place to Eat: Pick Me Up Cafe... although I haven't actually been there in months. It started out as one of my favorite places to go.
Win: surviving an entire weekend of little sleep and a lot of filming, only to find out that one of our rolls of film had been ruined during processing... but our project was chosen to be submitted to the Take One Film Festival anyway thanks to some awesome editing by Mallory.
Funniest Fail: A little trip to the suburbs to go to the cornmaze... We got into a little fender-bender on the exit ramp from the highway and the jackass who got bumped insisted on calling the police even though there wasn't any damage. Two hours later, we get to the cornmaze only to discover that it was flooded and closed.
Favorite Movie: Paranormal Activity definitely sticks out in my mind, as well as Tommy Wisseau's The Room. It was actually released in 2003 but has gained cult status just recently. It's a horribly written film with terrible acting and a soundtrack that will rock your world. Definitely one of the funniest things I've ever seen. And I watched it every Sunday at work with Todd.
Favorite TV Show: This was the year I was introduced to and fell in love with It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Other shows that will forever remind me of this year... WonderShowzen, The Big Bang Theory, and Penn&Teller:Bullshit! <-which is tied to some very interesting memories.
And now, from good old Facebook, my year in status:
Chelsea...
.:.is acting like a silly little boy .:. wishes the neighbors would quit their arguing. I'ma call Jerry Springer on their asses .:. smells like play-doh .:. drinking Belgian beer and playing with medical supplies .:. in the words of my roomie... "we're such dirty hobos!" .:. my roommate is the friendliest goddamn person in the whole fucking world .:. has a hot date with Merlin and a jar of Nutella .:. My dad: "i was watching the youtubes today on my phone". Ah, good one dad .:. night in with Eddie Izzard and a cup of tea .:.
I think I condensed that quite well. Until we meet again... much to do these next few weeks.
