Pretty crap 1st half, aunt died, failing exams, hated uni so I left. Since leaving my moods have mellowed, I've managed to control what I eat better and I got some seasonal work so that's some extra money for christmas. So not a bad way to end the year.
I hope 2012 is ok and that I manage to figure out what I want out of life and what I want to be. But if I could have anything it would be to never have a depressing thought again but I doubt that will happen.
All the best to everyone here, and you always have DS to vent on.
- Came home from teaching in China after a year.
- Started a Masters
- Got the highest mark in my course for the first assignments.
- Have an amazing placement coming up and
- My boyfriend asked me to move in with him
2011 has been a great year. In January I moved in with my boyfriend. We had the holiday of a life time to Florida, got engaged and I will now finish the year 4 and a half months pregnant!!
Then after I joined a gym and lost some weight, met a load of great people there, became addicted to fitness classes and have generally had a great time
I changed jobs at the end of 2010 so work was quite interesting, and I heard in November that I have to have a major operation (but nothing life threatening) in February.
But nothing of huge significance happened. What about you?
Managed to get a coin I've been after for many years ~ and at a bargain basement price. Other than that, quiet and uneventful. Just how I like it.
Those that followed my thread at the time will know I had a pretty shitty start to the year when my only sibling went missing. He was found 3 days later where he had drowned. He was just 22.
Everything this year has been based around losing him. The searching for him, him being found, the opening of the inquest, the funeral, raising money for charity, his birthday, all our birthdays without him, the 'proper' inquest, which was left to an open verdict, and now we face our first Christmas without him, which will lead us to the anniversary of his death on 16th January.

So nope, not a good year at all.
Really sorry to hear that. Must be a terrible time for you.
Finished college, split with my boyfriend of a year and a half, who started going out with my so-called best friend just six weeks later. Needless to say I lost two of my best friends because of their insensitivity.
Thankfully I started my first term at Cardiff Uni and got away from it all! Made so many new friends and have already sorted out a proper house to rent next year (as opposed to halls). Despite some ups and downs it really has been the best 3 months of my life!
This has been a very significant year for me which has changed my life in some ways. Sadly, this year has also ended with my MIL dying a couple of days ago.

Remember that thread well and how sadly it ended.
Nothing remarkable happened to me this year, very quiet in fact.

Although you may not realise it, these are the best type of years you can have. Quiet, good health, nothing to tire you out physically or emotionally.
When you have a bad year, you will look back on years like this with nostalgia.

Made redundant from said job last month.

My beautiful, wonderful, lovely mummy died on 29th August.
I had my first semi-contact kickboxing fight in December. So I'm glad I did something positive to end the year with.
