How was your 2011?
So am I the only one that felt like they kept getting the shaft during 2011? Definitely looking forward to the new year (even if it's the end of the world)

Wasent too shabby. Moved three times in my company, marriage is going strong, was assaulted by a homeless man, and after dropping my insurance, hopefully I can get outta the red, and get back on track from two years ago...

Business and career-wise, things have been very good so no complaints there. Health issues with my wife were a challenge but she is much better now so I'm def. looking forward to 2012.

Worst year ever for me as my mother passed away back in August.  Hopefully 2012 will be better.

Met many new people, held a few jobs, got my z28, graduated high school, have another career direction I want to go down, girls are on and off but good learning experiences...I had alot of firsts, a lot of "best nights of my life".. some real low points in January and august... I'll be making 2012 better.

It was pretty good. Not a whole lot of downs. Graduated with honors, had a job lined up already, bought a new jet ski, had an awesome summer, did a Goruck challenge and a few other things I never thought I'd do. No complaints here.

Had some bad stuff go on, but lots of good things happened with my family this year and work has gotten a bit better. Overall, a positive 2011 - hoping 2012 continues the upswing!

Car wise not so good, family & friendships excellent, and an entirely new group of coworkers have made it a pretty good year. As always a roller coaster month by month. Next year its all about staying safe and not getting blown up!

i live life day by day, to me the "new year" is just another day nothing will change its what you make of it. so my last 365 days was decent, had a few hick-ups with my car, dumped the stupid girlfriend (best decision yet), rekindled old friendships and made new ones, got closer with my dad but lost my dog overall my days were worth it and no regrets are had

2011 was a good year for me.
Got a descent full time job with benefits, bought every vehicle I've wanted since I was little, pretty much did a restoration on my first vehicle and I started to build a motor for my Z28.

Met an awesome girl. Made the most money I've ever made in my life, lost some good friends due to my work schedule and bought my dream car. Then I got put on academic probation even with a 3.0+ GPA and realized how far I've come in school and how important it is. Overall I feel like i had some great stretches where it was the best time of my life and then October came around and it sucked right up until December, Overall I would give it a 7 out of 10.
