Just a bit over 2 months left of the year... I always get depressed on NYE, just reminds me of my failures in the last year.

I have a REALLY hard time trying to see the good. Espeically when the bad seems to effect me more. So yes, I lost alot of friends and I am super lonely these days but there has been a few GOOD things so far

I fullfilled a longtime dream of going to England... and conquored my fear of flying over water.

I got to see baby leopards and tigers. Didn't get to pet them but got really close

Got an orange car.... yes I have wanted one for YEARS

I felt real and true happiness with a HUMAN for the first time in my life.

All this isn't much but its a start right?

Did you guys have a good or bad 2012? What are the good things that happened for you?

There's still a lot of 2012 to go yet so anything could happen in the next 2 months.

My year started off really poorly - some of the worst times of my life - but they've improved now (and I use the word "improved" quite loosely).

Good on you for having some good moments in 2012, MNM. It's not over yet so let's hope it continues for you.

HHR. People say they suk but I love it. It was reasonable priced for me, not too big, not too small and has alot of space in there for my dogs to ride comfortably. Heated seats for winter too, yay! :)

Very nice. I know those heated seats come in handy. Those kind of cars i love with all the space. My car I have now it my first ever actual real car I mostly drove trucks with all the nice space to load stuff and everything. I am sure you like to take it out for a nice drive and unwind on real bad days.

2012 was interesting. It was one of the best years of me living. What did I do? Not much, but suck up air and breath my germs back into the environment contaminating other Earthlings. I am depressed, but I've dealt with worse. Nothing exciting happened this year and I get lonely from time to time and very overwhelmed with things, but this is one of the few years something very crazy did not happen.

Well, it's not over......

I dislike Christmas so maybe that's why!

For the first time in my life, I am agreeing with you here. I normally love it but blah.

Actually.. a few years back, I realized it wasn't Christmas itself that I loved... in fact, its my least favorite day of the year.... but its the "Magic" of Christmas.. the stuff that leads up to it, the "happy" feelings it can give you and others.

The thing I find about Christmas day itself... at least for me.... its so "fake" its like, everyone who never has time for you all year long, is suddenly nice to you and people get so worried about gifts and such. It drives me crazy how fake it makes people.

The best Christmas I had in recent years, was a few years ago... it snowed and the reason it was the best... I took my dogs outside, and just ran around with them, and made a snowman. Just me and them, in the falling snow...but it was pure magic and happiness and I'll never forget it.

You don't usually agree with me on things?

I know what you mean about the "fakeness" of Christmas, but I usually think of how materialistic it is, and how crazy expensive it is!

That Christmas with your dogs making snowmen sounds really great. :) I hope you get to do that again this year.

The magic is what I love about it as well. I don;t care much about getting gifts its just a hassle and it gets more exspencive every year. I hope you get another wonderful christmas in the snow this year to help with all the stress and loss.

It's not a bad thing to be "obsessed" with Christmas, as there is a certain magic and splendour about it. Maybe I'm just too cynical and desensitised?

I know exactly what you want for Christmas, and I hope it can happen.

2012 has been a tough year. There are still two months left. A lot can happen in that time...if I did *something* that is. I am hoping 2013 will be kinder to me.

It was better than the last 2 years. Emotionally at least.

I still have a few more goals that I want to achieve before the year is over. They are:

-reach my goal weight (almost there)
-go see a recruiter about joining the Navy (hoping to go sometime late November/early December)
-try to make some progress with my crush

2012 was pretty much like 2011 for me. Which in turn was very much like 2010. That's the problem really. Nothing much seems to change.

This sums up how I feel pretty well actually. Christmas itself is really anticlimactic, but the feeling and the atmosphere as it approaches is what is really magical.

Christmas is BS, my being an athiest has nothing to do with not observing the holiday, the holiday is just about buying crap people don't really need for no real reason. Every day is the same to me to include my birthday. Funny thing is, my birthday is 26 December and people always ask about how it affects my Christmas presents. I suppose not getting presents is easier on me because I am used to getting nothing and if someone ever bought me one, I'd feel no obligation to rush out and get them anything, I'd say thanks and and wish they didn't give me something. 2012 started off very badly and it has gone from bad to worse, so I expect that is how it shall end. Only thing that changes before the year is over is my age, I'll be the same loser I have always been, just 23 instead of 22.
