Hows 2009 been for you ?

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

I know theres a little while to go yet but Im kinda curious how this year has been for everyone?

 

So Ive created a wee poll to see how we are overall and Ill let it run until the end of 2009.

 

So hows it been? Ive voted already I think the recession has made it a tough hard year but I guess everyone is different ..

 

Shall be interesting to see what we are like overall

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

You dont have to vote yet btw .. we have a good few weeks let , just to get some feeling going

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

Ohhh I voted bad btw .. its been a CRAP year , maybe its the recession especially in the UK its seems to have hit quite hard but generally its been quite gloomy

 

A sucky year for me but not a disaster

[robertina]

neither good nor bad, just average

 

i cannot complain, but i always want more!

 

health was not an issue, and it counts something at my age!

 

mikawise? it can always be better!

[Vedrana]

what I learned is that always can get worse so I try not too complain too much, whole family is alive and healthy and at the end of the day that's what matters the most.

 

but, of course I hope for better 2010

more fulfilled, 2009 felt a bit empty.

My year was pretty amazing. I nearly clicked the top button if it wasn't a for a few things that brought it down.

 

GOOD

Saw "Wicked" the musical

Made a new fanvideo with my best friend

Met Mika several times this year

Went to my first Britney concert ( don't test, I know what some people's feelings are like!)

Been on TV shows

Went to the pub with Mika

Gained a bit more independence

Got an idea on what I want to do for a career

Done a dance show

Went on holiday to Egypt

 

BAD

I was suffering badly from a heartbreak at the beginning

Parent's have been arguing a lot about money and that's been stressing me out

Had a lot of pressure throughout the year to do something with my life career wise when I was lost and had no clue what to do

 

and...yeah. The good definitely outweighs the bad, but the bad is...quite bad...

[purplegrape]

Hmm...there really isn't an option to fit me. It's been good and 'in the top 3' but there were definitely some disasters. But it's not quite average....

[Normajean]

Not my worst year but pretty close....

 

I think the only best taht happened to me this year was get "the boy wo knew too much" cd an became a real fan of Mika.

aww freddie i know what you mean, everything has been real gloomy, even when the sun comes out, it hasn't changed people's moods.

 

it's been just average for me, apart from passing A levels and getting a uni place, nothing else seems to be blindingly exciting and great but hey such is, i guess we can only hope that next year will be a whole heap better

Have to say in my top 3 worst!

With work being virtually non existant, having no real place to live to speak of (if it weren't for my friend and my aunty, I'd have been in real trouble!), this year pretty much stunk for me.

So if some of my posts over the last year seemed off or my attitude at some gigs or Mika appearances seemed to come across abrasive, it's because of the pressure I've been under, due to my home circumstances. Sometimes I just felt that I shouldn't have to be jolly all the time.

Hope to goodness next years better, because I can't go through this again.

i'm real sorry to hear that, i hope it gets better for you xxx

[violet_sky]

As everything is relative and 2008 was pretty darn horrible, I'd say 2009 was alright. 'At least no disasters' hits the nail on the head.

Looking forward to a superfantastic 2010.

[Mom4Mika]

Not bad, no disasters was how I voted.

 

I've been really confident that our lives here in the household is going to be really good 2010. Even hearing about our health insurance cost is increasing to rather high amounts, isn't really freaking me out, it is the general health care and profit thing that ticks me off

But that is another thread another post another time.

 

2009 not bad, but looking forward to 2010 such a beautiful even number.

Hmm .. difficult ..

 

Surely one of the worst years, probably the worst...

 

Basically because of 1 thing: my dad died of cancer 2 weeks ago .. We had the diagnosis since March .. 7 months ...

 

 

My own health isn't that good either at the moment (for a while now), but I don't know yet what it is, have to see a specialist in about 2 weeks .. So by the end of the year I probably can tell if it's the worst year ever or not

 

 

 

But on the other hand, there was Mika And the MFC

And there will be more Mika & MFC next year (I hope )

[riverstwilight]

I celebrate my New Year on my birthday, which is only a few days from now, so this poll is perfectly timed for me.

 

I remember that I've had some monumentally rough patches this year, but I can't really remember what they are because it has truly been my best year yet.

 

I spent a weekend on the Queen Mary with my friends.

I had amazing fun and epic tears and learned my friends love me even when I'm a mess.

I learned to fight with my friends.

I've always been too nice to fight with anybody, so it was important and important step in learning to speak my mind openly.

I filmed myself dancing in my pants and put it on the internet.

I met Mika (who turned out to be somebody I would totally want to be friends with if circumstances allowed such things.)

I wrote a small book.

I've updated my blog more regularly than last year.

I am about to visit my oldest and dearest friend, who I have not seen for just over ten years.

In fact, I'm leaving in 2.5 hours

 

This is the year that I finally feel like I've come into my own as a person. I'm not afraid of life or pain or other people. I'm not surrounded by people who hurt me. I am surrounded by people who love me. I'm not surprised they love me because I think I'm awesome. I have the kind of confidence I always wished I had. I'm comfortable in my own skin.

 

I made all of that stuff happen. I made hard choices and opened myself up to things I used to fear. I took risks and was met with amazing love each time I did. My friends have loved me when others in the past would have ripped me to shreds. I have loved myself when I had the most reason to beat myself down.

 

I am truly and deeply happy for the first time in my life.

 

Did I mention I met Mika?

:huglove:

 

1997 was that kind of year for me. My dad didn't die of cancer, but he spent his last few months in a hospital bed because of his heart.

 

I hope that your illness is nothing terminal and that your heart heals as quickly as it is able

[Fmbm]

I voted top 3 worst years. I won't go into detail

There were happy moments though.

[Dark Angel]

damit... i pressed the wrong one...

 

Did: Not bad , but for sure no disasters

Should have been: Neither good nor bad , just average

Thanks

 

 

I'm pretty sure it's nothing terminal .. can be chronic but you can live the rest of your life with it so .. It'll only be if I'll be in a lot of pain for the rest of my life or not Something like that ..

 

(best case scenario is that there just are many serious inflammations (wich hopefully can be treated), worst case is that it's a disease they can't do anything about but trying to control the pain .. And then there are some things in between .. So .. )

Aww, now any sort of skewness will be your fault!

 

[Laurel]

I've had a really good year actually

 

Work could be better ... but that's the only downside ... but it's been the same for the last 5 years so can't complain too much - I hate my job ... I'll hate it next year too

 

My brother is now out of the army and now living in our home town ... so that's really nice ... especially for my Mum who's missed him alot

 

Have been in alot of debt for the last few years ... but am finally seeing some light at the end of the tunnel ... so that's finally made me happier than I was last year

 

Mika wise ... it's been flipping fantastic ... have met some lovely people on here ... seen him alot this year .... so that's all good

[Dark Angel]

I hope things turn out alright for you, I'll keep my fingers crossed:wink2:

Oh that's another reason this year has been good ... I felt really really crappy most of 2008 ... discovered my thyroid has gone to pot ... so am on meds now ... so feeling more like me .... Which is bad for everyone else of course
