(Sung to the tune of "My Favorite Things" from "The Sound of Music:")

Heartwarming stories and cats being funny,
Pinterest and mustaches and saving money,
Romney, Obama and Olympic rings.

These were a few of our favorite things!

Katniss, Kate Upton, Kate Middleton's baby,
Gangnam Style dancing and Calling Me, Maybe?
All the weird songs that celebrities sing.

These were a few of our favorite things!

Space jumps and Bosons and Shuttle Endeavour,
Rovers, and iPhones as light as a feather,
Science and all of the wonder it brings.

These were a few of our favorite thiiiings!

All our heroes, real and fiction,
always save the day.

Now that we're all done with 2012...

To 2013, hooray!
