Since it's an annual review, they will probably give you a raise, like 3%. More if they like you, which generally means not getting it trouble, like coming in late, saying the wrong things at meetings, missing deadlines, etc. Those are the type of things that are easy to notice. You can mention them to justify your raise.

Things that are not easy to notice would be like staying extra hours to complete emergency tasks (the type that appear last minute because of something every department missed until the problem arose at the job site or whatever), creating tools to make standard tasks more efficient, and taking on more responsibility than you initially were hired for. The last one is a big one. And a weird one, if you ask me. There aren't many opportunities for that, since managers never ask for volunteers. They kinda just pick whoever they like and throw the task at them, which is pretty shitty imo.

Lots of people I know were given that reasoning when asking for a raise.
