I'd rate my year an 8/10, it's the first time I really started doing stuff other than play video games all day and I suppose really got talking to people. I've picked up a lot of bad habits this year, and had some shitty experiences, but I think I can honestly say I've come out of it a far more interesting person than I was this time last year.

Hmm I don't know... It's been bot good and bad I guess.

+
Made tons of money
Moved to Spain
Made a lot of new friends
Started a new band which has been rather successful

-
Got dumped
"wasted" all that money I saved up on school
Wrecked my car
Had my brother really sick
Wrecked my back


So I guess it's been good overall.

Kinda ok for me. I would give it 5/10. Not too good, not too bad.

Yeah, pretty much the same. A dull end to a yawnsome decade.

Really great. Started playing guitar, ended bad relationship after a couple tries, got 3000$ of scholarships/awards. Only bad thing was messing up registering for university and having to stay an extra semester at college.

worst year of my life, schizophrenic manic episode that put me in a mental institution for 2 months. lost all my weight lifting gains, lost all my leg muscle, lost my basketball game, complete bullshit.

however, got way into black metal, playing in black metal band, as well as some other bands, been getting back into music more in general really after being heavily into basketball for a year and a half.

Generally it was mediocre.

Finally passed my class i've been having trouble with
Moved out (pro and con)
Still dating the same boy, for a year now (pro for now haha)

Nothing too exciting this year.

Hoping for next year to be more exciting!

Resolutions:

-Blah blah go to the gym more, but actually have a good excuse if I can't go, not just because I don't feel like it.

-Actually do my readings for school - I spend enough money on books that I should actually use them

-Look good everyday, If I think I look like crap, I probably give off a vibe that i'm not confident, therefore I look like crap!

-Don't be so dependent on the boy, I can have a life without him!

-Be a less jealous person, within reason.

I dunno. I had a lot of good feelings this year, and not a whole lot of bad ones, so I guess it's been pretty good.

Haha, thanks? :P

However everyone has off days where they just feel especially like garbage, and everyone gives off that vibe, so people notice.

Anyway, worst new years.
Huge fight with the boy, i'll be lucky to have him for another day.

I hate my city. Amazingly boring New Years, the most interesting thing was seeing this kid collapse in the street and have the ambulance come pick him up. Oh, and I managed to catch an annoyingly stifling cold. I almost forgot it's my birthday as well. Yay.

Happy new years, though, people.

I had a really great year, like the best year of my life. Highlights:

-Graduated from high school
-Got a girlfriend/lost virginity (yay)
-Lost weight
-Going to a really good college
-Road trip with friends

Just an all-around great year. And crazy new year's to top it off, most drunk I've ever been...a little hungover today but it's all good.

quite a good year, easily one of the best in my life.

- got my first girlfriend lol
- very much enjoying the master's programme, where i also met tons of new people
- still stayed in touch with most of my college friends
- business: visited Mozambique, and my family opened a new business here in Lisbon which i am very optimistic about
- pretty much stopped smoking and heavy drinking

some bad news too, sprained ankle still not cured. god damn it. all in all, though, a good year with some personal growth and some very positive signs for the future.

resolutions, work out more and kick ass as i finish the master's programme this year.

Let's see now...

The Good:

- Got my first real job(s)
- Became way more interested in metal and music in general
- Made some awesome new friends at work
- Had my first lenghty make-out session(s) (in the back of the girl's dad's car, no less! No sex, though... but there's always '10)

The Bad:

- Lost friends because they followed the path of "Hoes before bros" (or just made poor decisions in general)
- Was cheated on
- Nearly flunked a class because I went on vacation in October and fell WAY behind (I don't think I ever really did catch up)

So those are the high and lowlights... A mix of really good and really, really bad. 2010 will surely be infinitely better, though. *knocks on wood*

I think it was a good year. I bought a house, got a promotion at work, the Lakers won the championship, the Huskers won a good bowl game, stepped up my golf game, made some new friends through close friends, celebrated 3 years of marriage...

The bad is that I've started drinking a lot more. It is starting to get to me, I think.
