The year is coming to a close. How was it for you?
I do not want to be negative. However lying here is worse. Id say it wasnt so hot. It wasnt awful the first 3 months were cool as i got back into eoff and had a wee fun. But after that it just spiralled down. And im not sure if it has stopped yet. But well im hoing 16 is good.
Yeah, it was a very mixed year. There were good things, but it was stressful beyond belief. The summer by far the worst; I've basically spent all of Autumn and Winter recovering from that disaster of a holiday.
I kinda fell for some guy from some forums. Not sure what happened there.....
It was decent.
Fantastic like always. Although there's still 7 days left!
Not too bad!
I had a wonderful baby boy, couldn't have been much better than that!
I was just kinda okay.
terrible.
The first half of 2015 sucked thanks to my school.
The second half was great, because I had so much freedom after graduation, haha! :P
It was okay. THere were a lot of good games this year. And I didn't die, that's a plus.
This year has truly been a great blessing for me and a great test in my faith. I am very thankful for the fact that I am able to find the strength and courage within my self to forgive because it has been one of my many great challenges though the forgetting is still a test for me. But most of all I am grateful for the family that I now have and all the immense love I have and endlessly receive from them. They are my miracle and my light. Merry Christmas to everyone of you and God bless you all.
First half was pretty troute, what with stress fracturing my foot and getting an undesirable shift at work. 2nd half has been pretty fab though, new job, new friends, new country (although not too happy about that part). So all in all it was pretty good. Mix of both good and bad.
It had good and it had bad
This was probably the best year in the last 10 or so. Not hard though because FFVII is Instant Win.
Overall it was tough! I've learned a lot of hard lessons about raising kids, about what kind of person I am, about how easy it is to get in money trouble and about making good choices.
I also had some bright spots! I lost 20 lbs (and have more to go) and learned that I can pushyself really hard for things I really want.
Next year is going to be great though, because now I have a really good perspective on who I and what I want out of the next decade of my life.
2015 was probably the worst year of my life, which included bereavement, family strife, massive disappointment, surgery, the loss of a friend, and unnecessary academic stress. However, it also included a lot of support, generousity, a trip home, three months off of work, a successful surgery, a reconciliation, excellent grades, and winning two national awards - which, if I were an optimist, would render it possibly the best year of my life.
So, I voted "okay" :D
Meh.
I voted "Great" because my wife gave girth to our third child, a beautiful baby girl.
My grandfather (maternal) passed away earlier this year and he didn't get to meet his great grand daughter. I was fortunate enough to have visited him just days before his passing. I miss him.
I'll let you know how my year was in about 41 hours and 20 minutes. A lot can happen in two days :D
It was the toughest year of my life with MissH's Dad having Leukaemia, MissH had a horrendous pregnancy, dealing with asshole solicitors when buying our house, plus trying to cope as new parents. It was far too much to deal with all at once and with MissH's Dad only given a 50/50 chance it just made everything so much more difficult to deal with.
Saying that, we're in a great position going into the new year. Here's to a totally uneventful 2016! With baby Bubba though I seriously doubt that will happen :p
Mostly bad, mostly lonely
jan- hooked up with a man, it lasted 5 seconds
feb- was going wild trying to contact said man who was a workaholic. I had a good birthday with 2 friends though
mar - ongoing problems with the idiot man, went to London. Started working for a bank
(after much red tape that is)
apr to sept - idiot man still a no show, got angry with his lack of text replies. When he finally did reply he avoided all the important questions i asked him. I fell out a bit with one of the female friends i shared my birthday with. She had also become bad at staying in touch. Work was lonely and full of idiots who made me feel like i was at high school again. I spent most of this period crying hysterically.
Sep- depression continued after handing in my notice. Stayed in bed all the time, feeling nothing but bad about myself. Things didnt improve with either the female friend or the man. They were vaguely sympathetic that id had to quit but that was it
oct - now: still on a downer here, didnt feel able to contact idiot man as he couldnt cope with my depression
dec: joined EoFF, told idiot man where to go, and as for my female friend, if she cant even text me at new year, then thats pretty much over too.
As for 2016, im not going to jinx it like some others do. I can live in hope but im no fortune teller, and based on the last few years i cant say anything with confidence. Fate sees me tempting it, i will be bound gagged and in the river before january.
Tomorrows plan
-give my parents the slip
-light fireworks
-talk to americans on eoff who by a thankful time lapse will still not be celebrating the most cliched holiday of the year
