In reference to some stuff I wrote last year

I wrote this at the end of 2007. It's a list of things I wanted to achieve in 2008. I'll do a bit of commentary on each thing.

AIMS AND PLANS FOR 2008
700+ subscribers on my YouTube account, www.youtube.com/AccioJellyBean Well I have another week left and I've got 688 subscribers. Hopefully I can get 12 more in time. Would be nice.
Get featured again on YouTube Didn't happen but some friends of mine got featured so that's okay
Have a well known YouTuber subscribe to me Haha bless. I was so retarded. But I guess this did happen not just the once so yay
Go to a YouTube gathering Three YouTube gatherings and four random meetups with friends from YouTube. I can definitely tick that one off
Start up a music journalism website Not applicable because I decided I didn't want to do journalism anymore
Send an article to a music magazine and get it printed Ditto
Get a job for a paper/magazine Ditto
Get good GCSE results Well they were good but not good enough. No tick here.
Go to London with my friends 10+ times Yeah I definitely did this
See Green Day They didn't tour. But this is definitely going on my list for 2009.
Read more books Big fat heffer of a tick here
Start a fansite Not as such, but me and Jim started ourselves a facebook group :D
Not fall asleep in a cinema Hahaha I slept the whole way through The Dark Knight
Get a Gryffinor tie Nope, totally forgot about that actually
Do more homework and revision *shrugs* not really

And this is the list I wrote of stuff I was excited about in 2008. More commentary.

I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IN 2008
Plain White T's concert This was amazing, I met Paul DiGiovanni and the Plain White T's on this night
Mindless Self Indulgence concert It was actually probably the shittest gig I've ever been to. Epic fail.
Ski trip Possibly the best week of my life.
Italy trip Possibly the second best week of my life.
Barcelona Was a really nice holiday
Greece Amazingamazingamazing. Climbing into volcanoes = incredible
Rome This was really good too
Summer holidays All in all they were quite rubbish. Too long and drawn out and pointless
Sixth form <3
Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal snogging film Hahaha well as films go, it's crap. But it's a laugh and I could watch it again
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince film Good one WB.
NEW YEAR 2008! Why was I so optimistic last year? Fugging annoying.
