We usually talk about this kinda thing at the end of the year at home- mentioning what has been the best and what has been the worst times of the past year.
For me, the two things that stand out as the best of times were meeting my favourite band for the first time, and getting a recording deal. Finally seeing The Verve should be in there, but the gig on saturday really was a bit of a disappointment!
The worst of times have both happened within the last week. Last wednesday was pretty bad- what with everything going all pear-shaped and that. And today was probably worse. My mum's best friend died on saturday, so we were at the funeral today- and it was tough. I don't really want to talk about my bad times, but if you have memories of 2007, good or bad, then this is the place to share em :) |

Best: Good year for concerts, getting to meet a couple bands (including everyone's favorite)
Worst: A lot of injuries/illnesses in the family, and my doggie's sick right now- it's been a very tearful past couple of days |

I'm sorry about everyone's bad times :o(
Great year for me. Not in the fields I expected though. Amazing gigs, I met Travis and Keane, I got to go to the acoustic session both bands did here, I got two jobs, I started taking singing lessons, my parents finally split up (I know it sounds bad but it's been so much better for them after years of fighting). I met cool people on the board...
The worst... uni hasn't been gratifying. I got good grades and all, but academically it hasn't been too interesting except for a few things I read. It's been a pain in the ass. It's frustrating, because it's what I'm going to do the rest of my life, and I know it won't give me the best moments. And then, when I lost my first job, it was sad, but wasn't that bad. |

Best: a lot of parties, great vacations, meeting dozens of cool people (some awesome boardies included!;), making some important decisions. Good year for me!
Worst: my Grandpa spending months in hospital because of his heart and lungs. Bankruptcy of my uncles' firm. My best friend doing some extremely stupid things with her life. |

Best: A good, sort of quiet year in general, and two Travis gigs
Worst: My godson has been diagnosed to be terminally ill
Can't believe this year is already coming to an end, it's gone so fast... |

Best: I spent three amazing weeks in London and I met a lot of great people there; and last course in uni was fantastic: good teachers and good subjects (I hate the subjects I study this course :S)
Worst: I can't think of anything bad this year.. Probably something bad happened to me, but I can't remember now. |

2007
My Job, although extremely taxing, I actually enjoy it and I'm fucking good at it!! I'll be looking at a €10k raise when made permanent.
Recovery, still suffering the after effects of the accident in 2006. Including being unemployed for the first 6 months of this year, and not being able to find a job due to lack of confidence. I still wake up some mornings and can hardly move, but it tends to go away pretty soon.

I usually save this for New Year but...
May the Best of Last Year be the Worst of this Year.
Good luck to all boardies, their families and friends.
