Well, thank its nearly over.

Started off pretty well, then just continued to go down hill, and more recently - into free fall. Doubt im the only person who has had a depressing 04', and to those of you who also suffered, I feel your pain.

I hope its been a good year for everyone else, and more importantly I hope we can all look forward to a better 05.

Yep been a st year.

I've seen my Dad have:

2 Heart Attacks (Due to his heart op being cancelled 5 times!!)
A double heart bypass
A hernia operation (Been waiting 2 years!)
Loads of bridge work done on his teeth
Made redundant in June after being on long term sick for 6 months.
Having to fight for 3 months for a decent pay off

I failed a couple of exams at uni and had to resit them.
I'm back living at home on my placement year and I hate it!
I'm working at the same place I worked before I went to uni, doing more work but for less money.


On the plus side:

My Dad has made a full recovery
I have a lovely new Girlfriend who I am really happy with
I have my own car again.
Just turned 22 (Or that could be a bad thing lol)
2004 is nearly over.
I'm off to South Carolina in March 2005 for 2 weeks.


Best wishes for all for next year! BCA it will get better!!!
I hope everyone has a great New Year

On hold at the moment whilst I deal with another project. I would just like to say however that the rumours project FM12 stands for Fking Mad 12 have been grossly exaggerated

The best year of my life, I've been happier for parts of this year than I ever have before. Its just a terrible shame that I lost the person who made me so happy.

Have generally had a depressing, difficult struggle since I left uni. Not out of the woods yet. Perhaps I will be next year.

Let's hope so. Have a cracking time tomorrow, let's make the future possible, eh?

I was actually hoping that there would be a few people who enjoyed 04 out there. Guess not, or maybe its just the late night PH'ers that are all depressed??

Well reading this thread and thinking about it, I would have to say that 2004 has been good to me all in. Certainly a vast improvement on it's predecessors...

All of a sudden I "get" uni, the health scares in the family have turned out fine (fingers crossed) and I finally feel positive and that I'm heading where I want to be.

Hope this doesn't annoy too many people who haven't had the best time and that fate deals you a better hand in 2005.

2004 is the year in which like a huge pussy didn't have the courage to ask a lady I really like out.

I reckon 2005 will probably be the same tbh :/

For me, 2004 was the best of years and the worst of years...

Though let's see if tonight can swing it toward the former
