[RavenBlue]

2009 was a rough year but there were some important points

Number one has to be getting engaged to my wub, Nick. Amazing!
Close Behind are both the trip to the Rockies with Dad his wife and Nick and the U2 show.

I'm trying to leave the bad parts behind, here's to 2010. A fresh start without the heavy weights of useless heartless bastard friends

FTBFFW

For the big fat fucking WIN!!!

This brings a :smile: to my 2009!

 

[U2Girl1978]

See U2 open in Chicago!!!

Getting awesome grades at school.

Plunge into as much debt as I possibly could.

 

[Vincent Vega]

Invite someone dear over to come see a U2 concert with me in Amsterdam

Other than that, a very big change of heart for myself

Taking an invitation to see U2 in Amsterdam.

Also seeing them three times, having been to San Francisco, having had a great internship, having a 180° turn in something very personal and making some big progress on many things.

 

[Carek1230]

Definitely meeting the Mighty Boosh in San Diego and LA, new friends, and finally receiving the diagnosis confirming a degenerative spinal disease which has changed my life.

 

[lauramullen]

Travelling to Dublin to see all 3 360 shows U2 played at Croke Park. It was my first time in Europe and I never thought I would be able to ever go to Ireland and I did it.

Fought cancer and won.

I saw U2 in Raleigh. Best night of my life (by far). I've written some songs this year that I think are good. I also gave a jar of home-made candy to girl that goes to my school. I've had an ok year but here's to hopes that '10 will be better. Much better!

 

[Reggo]

Not a damn thing. Not as far as I can remember.

 

[Dfit00]

2009 got better at the end in my opinion, good things are meant to be waited.

 

[cobl04]

well i got my license, had some drinks and laughs, but nothing grand.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

Progressing through school well, working hard and scoring excellent grades.

Other than that, not much.

 

[Earl-Of-IMDb]

had a good school year..catched up with a lot of classes that I had due.

 

[Alan Jamison]

Tell us. What was the coolest, best, most life-changing, earth-shattering, awesome thing that you did or that happened to you this year?

I became a fan of Girls Aloud.

 

[last unicorn]

The year has been pretty bad for me, I think the U2 shows and meeting some really nice people at and around the shows have been my highlights. In fact, if I think about it, U2 have basically kept the year from going totally downhill, with the new album and all

 

[achtung_girl]

^ lol lu !

Probably the worst year for me on record, based on various things.

yup! maybe the best thing was, that I met loads of new people, enjoyed some amazing gigs and travelled a lot. but generally various things just went wrong...

Fought cancer and won.

Me? Making it to 2010 This year sucked on quite a few levels. But I did join a gym for the first time in my life and dropped a few kilos.

[VintagePunk]

Congratulations beegee, that's so great to hear!


The major focus of this year for me has been taking care of my mom. Other than that, seeing a few U2 shows with friends was a highlight.

 

[Justin24]

I traveled to Ecuador for two weeks. I love exploring new countries. I stayed with a host family in Quito Ecuador. Inigenous and from the town of Tigua. I stayed up in their town for a week and photographed the people, the land. Amazing!!! Then I went to Guatemala for two weeks after that. Here are some pictures. Oh and I saw U2 in Pasadena.

This is great. I agree there have been many times in my life where U2 have been a driving factor in keeping me sane and helping me cope to work through some struggles.

 

[lauramullen]

This year was great for me because of U2. So many good memories.

And just think, Laura, there will be more U2 memories to be made and cherished in 2010!

 

[lauramullen]

Sadly, though, I don't think it will top 2009.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

found a decent woman (i guess)

for me, finding ian definitely tops it being able to go to australia and new zealand were awesome too. this year has had a lot of ups and downs, though.
