I had a decent year.

Started off, I was single, and praying to get into teachers college. In april, I got letters from two universities, one saying I was rejected, the other saying i was on a waiting list. That waiting list ended up getting narrowed down, but in the end, I was still only the 7th best of the people that didnt get in.

Party wise, I had an amazing year. I never partied often before this year, and was able to get out every couple months.

The year got sooo much better in the past 4 weeks. 2 weeks ago, I got a call from Daemen College in New York saying that I have been accepted to their teachers college. I got a decent christmas bonus from work (which will help me pay for the tuition), and best of all I met an awesome girl, and we have been dating for a month now. So I am happy.

let's see....met a whole bunch of deejays....gained a new best friend.....injured my knee.....got the stomach flu twice in 6 weeks....2002 was great.

The good:
- Did pretty well at school
- Made the first real big accomplishment of my life: Went to europe for 2 weeks
- Attended a lot of really great parties
- Made a lot of new friends

The bad:
- Broke up with a girlfriend of 2 years whom I really loved
- Have been doing E at waaay too many parties after that. Must stop doing that shit
- Spent too much money on parties. I don't even know how I'll survive for the next 4 months

Overall, probably not the best year of my life, but definitely the craziest(in a good sense) year of my life.. Still, I'm happy

yeah.. everybody's got a bit of balance.. can't all be great, right?

Mine started fine.. on the streets of Paris. Got back to TO, lots of parties, lots of work, I did ok in school. Payed off my bank loan by the beginning of April. Passed all exams, then worked a bit til beginning of July and made $ for Europe. July: Paris, Serbia, Montenegro.. August: Greece, Italy, Croatia. Back to T.O. and then I couldn't get a job, dug into a bank loan again, broke off a relationship, was low on cash and low on friends too.. until recently. And I will end this year in Spain.

Overall, kind of satisfied.

Damn...you get around! lol
That's awesome though!!!!

Let's see...
The good:Got to work at Alliance Atlantis on a contract kept in contact with the supervisor over MSN; got an interview TODAY for a desktop anaylst (hardware) position. I'm pretty sure it's mine.
The bad: Was out of work for sooo long....
Parties: Had some great outtings with ma fellow TAs....Armin back in April was definately a highlight for me. I'll never forget that smile on his face, it haunts me! lol....honestly though, it's great to have a DJ that plays awesome tOOns and gets into it.
Love: What can I say? My wife lost like, 15 pounds or so, she looks amazing! Then she want to an National Irish Dance competition and kicked ass! I love my wife!
Life: Had a lot of time to think about myself with my time off. My epiphany earlier in the year certainly woke me up from a depression I was going through. I'm actually starting to realize what everyone has been seeing in me for so long that I could never see. It's very self impowering and a definately aweness of what I'm really capable of.
I must take this time to thank JULIE SPYDER for all your days of MSNing me for days on end right after my epiphany; I appreciated it tons! You're the best!! (I will meet you yet! )
School: Home-studied my A+ and got it; saved big bucks in doing so.
Work: Was a low for the beginning of the year but things are really turning around fast. I'm getting job offers all over the place lol.
Financies: Dunno how I made it this far, but my head is above the water minus a somewhat large VISA bill but that'll be a goal to chop down once I start my new job.
Travels: Didn't go too far this year...next year will go out to B.C. for my sister's wedding. (Vancouver area)
Relationships/Friendships: Continue to meet new and exciting people from TA....will continue in the new year.

The Good:
- finally came out of my personality "shell"
- started partying
- met the some of the friendliest, welcoming people i have ever met - the TAs (esp Jeff, Sunny, RJ, Ken, and this other guy that didnt tell me his name (he brought his cousin with him))

The Bad
- Financial situation has been mediocre
- haven't been getting as many hours as i would like to at work

The Worst:
- relationships. its been a really fucked up year for me in this department, i dont even want to get into it. right now my #1 priority is finding a girl that i can actually like

Not a bad year. Lots of intresting things happened. Can't wait to see what 2003 had to offer. Lots of major things happening.
