Let's see, in 2014 a few important and unimportant things that happened to me was I
- turned 14
- started high school
- had my first piano exam
- became interested in photography
- went skiing for the first time since I was 4
- started this blog :)
- went camping (we haven't done that for a LONG time)
- played through 3 grades in piano
- bought my first DSLR
- swam in an outdoor swimming pool on Christmas Day!
- started my first live (but online) class with the Virtual Learning Centre
- learned a very hard but very important lesson: if you're saving files and pictures on your computer, be sure you're logged on an administrator's account. If you're logged on as a guest user (as I was) and the computer runs out of battery and dies, all the files and pictures are instantly erased. I'm not kidding, EVERYTHING IS ERASED!!!! (Which kinda explains why I haven't put any posts on Singapore recently. All those Singapore pictures were erased. :( Thanks to my uncle, however, 50% of the photos were recovered by using a card reader on my memory cards. Now I've just got to sort through them and organize again)
- went to Singapore!!
- made two REALLY nice new friends
And then several things that happened in the family:
- Toblerone turned 1
- Cinderella lost her first tooth
- Ironman started piano lessons
- We visited the Warplane Museum
- Our grandparents treated us to a trip to Ripley's Aquarium
- Toblerone started walking (he's currently running now though)
- The dangerous swing was put up
- Spiderman celebrated his 10th birthday (double digits!!)
- Tiger Lily celebrated her 13th birthday in Singapore (which is significant, not only because she's now a number that ends with "teen", but also because I celebrated my 13th birthday in Singapore.)
- Tiger Lily and I hemmed and sewed around 60 gingham napkins for a birthday party
- Mom and Dad had their 18th anniversary
Wow! Quite a list. :) Glad you were able to recover most of your pictures! I don't take many pictures, but I know that when my other computer started messing up earlier this year, I nearly panicked because I hadn't backed up all my stories! Thankfully I was able to back them up and didn't lose them.
