Well, we're swiftly approaching the end of the year and 2010's coming to an end.

I think this year has been one of the most difficult and emotional years I've ever had. I've had more bad times than good times.

A lot of people have betrayed my trust and I've lost them as friends. A lot of revelations came out and have really upset me. My great grandma passed away in June with blood cancer and I wasn't told until a few days before she died. My great uncle's currently on his last legs and could die any day now. I've become more guarded about what I say or how I say and who I say to it and developed trust issues. I even had my first boyfriend this year, but we broke up only over a month later because of those same trust issues.

I'm really hoping to enter 2011 and think that this is THE year! :monster:

So what kind of year have you had? Discuss.
 
Omg AMEN! I think this year has been the worst of my life. Everyones been like oh Christmas and oh graduation and I'm like shut it :hmph: This has been a very emotionally trying year for me, between school, work, my mother's battle with unemployment...and my battle with myself over self confidence vs. self doubt. Honestly, I think that there is no way next year can be any worse than this year has been. Here's to 2011-I'm ready! :monster:
 
Im not sure whether to say its been shit one or a good one.
A lot of bad things have happened to members of my family and to my friends, ive acted like an idiot and hurt people i love and care about and broke some good friendships. Also had a really rough time myself with some peronal things. But when you look back you tend to remember the bad things first but theres been a lot of good this year aswell.

Like i said in that other thread as a person i really think ive grown so much stronger and wiser, i think im going into 2011 as a better person all round and when you can say that then i dont think you have the right to complain at all.
Despite all the stuff thats happened with my mums cancer etc, shes still alive and shes in the clear. Shes still far from a picture of health but shes here and thats what matters. Ive overcome my own personal issues and things are really looking up.

Lookit all the bad things and think how much worse they couldve been and you feel kinda lucky in the end. Im not a believe in a new year a new start etc but im really looking forward to 2011. Roll on :busta:
 
From what I can recall from last January, this year hasn't been very eventful for me. But considering 2011 is the year I graduate and finally go to an out of state college, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to make some history then. This year just wasn't exciting at all, some people I've known had changed in a way I don't really approve of, and the relationship with my family has been yo-yoing like always. There'd better be a big adventure waiting to happen this upcoming 2011 .
​
 
I'm not sure if I could say that this year has been significantly worse or better than any other year.

To be honest, it feels like the same ups and downs I have every year. No one can ever have a flawlessly awesome year. There will always be something during that year that will get you down.

The events this year have been different than that of last year, but they still had the same impact that different events last year had on me.

I think we all hope for a better year the next year and hope that it's better than the last, but if we expect too much of it of course we're always going to be disappointed at the end of it. =/

It's a vicious cycle! Every year we hope for a better one and our expectations get even higher!

I just hope I get a boob job next year. XD If that happens nothing can ruin my year for me! :gasp:

The only thing that was significantly AWESOME about this year is that I got engaged. <3 It definitely will be a memorable year for me. =)
 
Hmm my year was good because my house finally got built and i moved in with my BF :D
My Friends threw me an awesome bday party, I went to Queensland for my 1 yr anni with my bf and christmas will be awesome.

Bad because my grandma passed away, I got into a very very big and upsetting fight with my dad (on my birthday before my party) and hadn't spoken to him for over half a year and just the stress of being on my own without my mum in my new home

I guess this year has been so-so for me :)
 
This year has had it's ups and downs, but that's pretty normal with life itself. On the up and up, this year has been full of firsts for me. I got my first girlfriend, got my first apartment, and I turned 21 over the summer, so I got party a bit at the bar. :wacky:

On the downside, a friend of mine died back in May. :sad3:
 
2010 wasn't the worst year of my life but it wasn't the best either. Nothing special really happened except the fact that I went back to school. The first half of 2010 I was working 6 evenings a week (around 55 hour per week) so I had no social life and I was mostly sleeping/working. I don't like my job so I had a boring 2010 overall. In September things got better and I met new people. I lost contact with my friends over the year since I was working evening and they work during the day. I don't see them often but I'll try to change that in 2011.

On a side note I had really high expectations in 2010 about Final Fantasy XIII and that game became one of my biggest disappointment of the year.
 
Oh God...I love how I ALWAYS say "BRING IT ON NEW YEARS", but I'm trying to refrain from doing that this year only because I end up getting disappointed at the end. I was so prepared for 2010 to be a great year, but...instead it turned out crappy. It wasn't that bad, but it could've been MUCH better.

HOWEVER, I am quite excited for 2011 because I get to move back home to Toronto and be with my boyfriend and friends once again after I finish up gr. 12. So...I'm kind of seeing a positive aspect for 2011.
 
It started off well enough, but it's getting a little fucked in the end.

I started 2010 graduating from my college program, and I spent a few months relaxing, just working more shifts at my part time job to get a bit of a nest egg going before actively trying to find a career drop. Fast forward a month or so of finding nothing matching my criteria, or the few places I applied to never getting back to me.

Some family issues bubbled every so often, but they resolved fairly quickly as well.

Started a post-grad program in September, which started off well, and then more drama arose, but didn't get resolved. Had to deal with school, drama, and stupidly early work shifts that never gave my time to do any assignments over the weekend , and something had to give-unfortunately, it was school. Long story short, I was late handing in a lot of big assignments, and I don't even know if I'll pass the first semester now. Drama is resolved, sort of, but it's like "what's the point?", you know?

Anyways, I'm hoping to finish everything in time for a not-a-bad New Year *shrugs*
 
I would have to say that it was about the same as last year in terms of how it was. There were a few good things that happened, but most of it was bad.

The good: I got a job, got a large sum from said job, and might have met a future girlfriend.

The bad: no money for everyone else in the family, no JV season for me to coach, having to hear way too much shit from people about said future GF.

Due to the fact that nobody in the house has money but me, there might not be too much xmas shopping going on. :sad3:
 
2010 has been absolutely awesome, probably the best year I've had this side of the millennium.

The snow in January pretty much cancelled everything that month, meaning I didn't go back until February. I managed to get an overall first in my second year at University, which is absolutely awesome and more than I expected, and then I had a five-month holiday...which DID get a bit boring, but it was still nice. Whilst my third year has been stressful as hell, it feels good to be back and doing something. More snow cancelling my late lectures earlier was awesome, as well ♥

I've made a lot of new friends this year (mostly on here, since I joined late November and this is really the first year I've spent here) as well, and I've only fallen out of contact with one...I really do miss that one, but we only spoke once every eight months or so anyway. But I re-established contact with two others, so that makes up for it ♥

I dunno, I've been in an almost positive mindset this year. The game releases alone (Mass Effect 2, BioShock 2, etc) were enough to put me in a good mood, and I haven't had too many disappointments or irritations this year. 2011 looks set to be good as well, so overall I suppose I'm content with things ♥
 
:hmmm: Let's see.

Goods: Football team played in the state championship game for the first time in school history. Had a state champion in the 3200m in track. Was hired on as a Division 1 NCAA basketball referee, and worked my first college game. Sent 4 cross-country/track athletes onto college with scholarship/walk-on offers. Started the process of planning our wedding.

Bads: Interviewed for a couple full-time positions in the school system, and was turned down for both. Money = stress. A bit up and down in the relationship.

So it had its ups and downs, like it does for most people. But I'm looking forward to 2011, whatever it may bring.
 
This year has just been sort of a sick, tired blur

nothing different from how its been..

I struggled through my last part of high school, witch I found miserable and boring
then tried to get a job, but where I live its really tough
so I tried, and I tried, then I gave up because I suck like that

Ive become painfully anti-social because of high school. I hated it so much I pretty much refused to talk to anyone but my closest friends for quite awhile after it was over

as far as achievements go

I got seriously into forums in the summer
got to 1,000 posts on another forum, and I know its not a big deal, but im so proud of myself for it :]

got back into anime, Then started cosplaying. learning to sew, and I think ive finally found my direction in life. hope so, we'll see

bonded very much with two friends of mine, witch elates me because its hard for me to make friends so when the ones I already have become more close to me it makes me really happy :]

also Harry Potter 7
and the bed intruder song
 
I may not have achieved as much as I did last year, but 2010 has been a rather positive year for me nonetheless. I can look back at how I was in January and just see how much I've grown since then. I'm probably less irrational and calmer and more attentative in my demeanour now than I was at the start of the year. Earlier this year, I finally parted ways with my ex, who I still kind of disdain to this day. I was briefly single and now I'm dating again. The whole episode has been a huge sigh of relief for me.

In terms of my achievements, I've actually gone down a bit in my grades as the year progressed, which isn't a really positive thing. I am trying to step up my game though, with university closing in and the lack of time to be complacent and all that. So far I've had offers from most of my university applications, so that's been a tremendously uplifting contemplation. All I need to do now is to get the grades required to seal my place in one of them. I've also befriended a lot more people this year, mainly because I've switched schools during my transition from high school to sixth form. I've also befriended various interesting characters from around the country during my interview visits.

Forum wise, I've gone through quite a lot this year and I'm where I am now. And of course, there was my visit to Hong Kong, which I loved. I want to go back now, and perhaps visit other countries in the Far East as well, like Japan and Singapore. And other than that, I think that's all there is to the year for me.

Owait....we've been given a Conservative and Lib Dem coalition government this year. That's a low point for a lot of us this year, purely because we either hate Cameron or we hate the Tories in general. :wacky: God knows what their cuts will do in the next year or so.

Hah! I stopped sayin that loooong ago. I feel so old it's as if the years are just like one big giant day.

2010 was pretty shit. I went to do my 2nd year for my Graphic Design course on the Sunshine Coast....Tedious....tiring..work. The Air-con that's meant to be on gonstantly to keep the comps at a reasonable temperature never got fixed so we all were working in practically a furnace room!

The only good things bout this year were that i brough back a PS2 so i could play the FF trilogy again, getting broadband net connection, meeting some new friends and coming here and meeting you guys~

Hmm oh yes, the quote... Love the anime and Gazette's my 2nd fave band. Dir en grey's my 1st.
 
I'd say 2010 has been a fairly good year for me. It's had it's low points, but, no year is going to be absolutely perfect. The high points outweigh the low points, so I can't complain too much. I got good grades at college, and I'm really enjoying my University course, and so far, I'm doing quite well assignment-wise, which is always a moral-boost; since it means that the hours upon hours spent in the library haven't been wasted.

I am looking forward to 2011 though, simply because I have a feeling it's going to be even better than this year. I'm going to be getting a flat with my friend, which is super exciting, and everything seems to be going great for me.
 
:hmmm: 2010.

Well, I suppose it's been quite a good, yet stressful, year :monster:
A summer and January full of exams I've had, but I did well in pretty much all (except one) of those so that was nice.
In terms of achievements, it's been a good year - good grades, got into 6th form, I'm currently doing well at that. Went on a total of 3 training courses and numerous competitions with cadets - passed all the courses well and won a few of the competitions, got promoted to sergeant.
I've had my ups and downs, and it'll probably end with me being a bit fed up - but since I'm revising all December and having exams all through January, 2011 will start the same way!
For me, the second half of the year has gone so fast - I've had problems with a few people but it's mainly been good, so I'm happy with how it's turned out :ryan:
Hopefully 2011 can be even better :dave:
 
honestly, very little bad for me. uni has gone really well since i started working in a good group, and so far everything we've done together has been excellent. thanks to that i managed to get a couple of firsts in second year which has actually given me a chance of finishing with one.
had a loads of good nights out and met some great people too.
 
This for me has been one if not the best year in a while. this year has been one of the hardest too and most stressful, but I have accomplish many of my goals that i set for my self at the beggining of the year.

I can't wait for 2010, and to do do it all over again.
