    [​IMG] I remember Last year, someone asked how amazing our year had been. This year we can actually make a poll.

    So Are you proud of yourself? Are you Mad at yourself? Take it all out on yourself in this poll, where you can stay anomynous. You'll feel better afterwards. :1eye:

    This has been a cool year for SP. Getting a lot of new faces - it's great. Not to mention the creation of a bunch of new forums for both gaming and non-gaming forums. As well as the adding of Polls and PM.

    [​IMG] Well, it's been an interesting past year for me anyway, but I got through it and will kick this years ass if it starts playing up like this one did. ;)

    Going to RopeCOn, getting new friends, hanging here in SP, getting rid of the GH... good things. But there has been way much bad things for me this year as well. It has been a blast.... that hit the moon, I think.

    Well my year go a lot brighter in september (moment I found the SP boards ;) )

    Gamewise I found the year a bit dissapointing with only IWD2 a shining exception, damn what a big dissapointment can do for a year (NWN)

    Socially seen it's been a good year until september again :rolleyes: :D

    Hollandwise it's been a very bad year: politician getting killed, economically very poor, governments that fall.

    So it's a so so year, SP covering a lot of damage :)

    That's right, but if you compare it to a few years back it's not, and the uneployment is quite high this year again considering other years. People aren't spending a lot of money this year!

    I moved 3 times

    but on the other hand,

    I'm making twice what I used to make
    I love the music I have been making
    my daughter is still the light of my life
    I have a great apt.

    What do you think?

    [​IMG] This year was pretty much the best of my life and I hope to remember it for as long as possible.

    The year started well, I'd made new friends and I was finally settling into a comfortable lifestyle. I calmed down a lot in the new year, I was no longer in threat of being chucked out of school, my parents were happy with me and things were finally looking up. I also started gaming last January, proper PnP with a bunch of older gamers, it was an amazing experience.

    Then a few months in I met the most amazing person of my life. I snatched her immediately and I'm still with her and still going strong.

    The summer months were just amazing. Again, it was the best of my life. I've never had so much fun and I've never felt more comfortable with my life than now. I turned 16, with the new age came a lot of freedom but also at a lot of cost. Now when I want to go anywhere, I'm allowed. But public transport now costs double for me considering I'm 16... During the summer I also got a new tower. Upgraded from a PII 400 to a AMD Duron 1100. Quite a nice step :D

    The new school year started and I was back with my friends and having fun. The only bad point to this year so far has been the mock exams which were quite stressfull... Everyone has been on edge and quite *****y lately. Thankfully, the holidays start tomorow and the exams are over... Yay!

    Now its almost the end of the year. I'm still close to my friends, my computer is running perfectly with its new OS, I've been seeing Azir now for almost 9 months and I'm getting along with everyone just fine.

    I don't want this year to end. The only thing I have to look forward to is a full year with my girlfriend.

    Hmm, the poll is in future tense and the title is in past. What year do you want us to walk about?

    This past year has been one of the best I've ever had, and next year should be better. I've got a new place going up in a great neighborhood, socially I'm better off now than in a long while, and I'm really beginning to get priorities straight. Getting a new car right after moving too. With that, comes the beginning of a new stage, so wish me luck.

    This your was a blast :)

    This past yeah has been the best in my life to date. Although it has not been without one personal disastor and a few downers, but thats life!

    Since turning 16 I have been given so much more freedom. Although my parents are worried about letting me stay out, they now appreciate that I can use my own judgement.
    I have a few select friends and generally get on well with most people. This is how I like it.
    Althought I have been stressing over exams, I now realise how much work is ahead so I can prepare!

    The one disastor was my horse breaking its leg, after years of traning and preparing one of my best yet, he broke his blinking leg, after a waste of a year his leg has fully recovered and next year I am looking forward to retraining him and racing again :) However all my spare time with out him was not to be wasted ;)

    Next year I am dreading my exams, but looking forward to the holidays and free time after, knowing they are over for another summer!
    I am looking forward to spending lots of time with that fantastical boyfriend of mine ;)

    Oh and another great point about the year, I was introduced to this little commnity.
