Has events in your life up to this year been ok for you. Are you happy with the things you have done...

Or in the new year do you want to make dramatic changes and change things around.

Do you have upcoming events of 2007 that are going to change your life around?

Yeah i would agree, i have my independance and things are harder. I admit probably more often then not i need help and support. But since living on my own without parents (since i was 17) ive found it very difficult to turn to people and ask for the help. As far as i see it i chose to leave home, i had my kids and i wanted to be all grown up and independant. Now i just drive my self in to the ground doing so much when at times i just end up in tears when it all gets to much. No matter how much i want to ask for help i wont!.

Im stubborn and independant. I get by though and im proud im doing things alone. Im not at breaking point. Not yet anyway :)

I just couldn't go back to that now. That said, it's true that you have so much more independence living on your own, but things are harder too. It does make you appreciate things more when someone does something for you, though.

It's easy to let yourself slide and so, so difficult to claw your way back up. I have done it in the past but rarely to this extent. Things can only get better from this point ... though I've thought that in the past :) Not the attitude is it??!! Bring it on, 2007, let's see what you've got for me!! :D

I guess, though I don't feel fully in control of my life here, sure I'm paying my way etc, but want to stand on my own two feet in a way. Grass is always greener on the other side though ... I lived with mates for 2 years and was always dying to get back here :)

Et tu ... may the best times of your past be nothing in comparison to what lies in the future ...

I've definetly been where you are now so i can appreciate the situation your in. Things will pick up they always do, finding a job which you enjoy is bloody hard. Do you have any job preferances or things you would like to do? And yeah i was into it all, best thing i ever did was to get out of it.

There are many things I want to keep the same and many things I want to change.

Most notably I need to become gainfully employed in a job I enjoy, pick up my Guitar more often, get back to Kickboxing and stop drinking so often because it's turning me into a person I don't like ... stop smoking ... before it stops me ...

Maybe look at moving out of the parents too ... I am 27 now it's pretty disgraceful ...

It's been a very eventful year for me, I've had some wonderful times and some very sad ... one thing is for sure, I will never forget this year ... no chance ...

Here's hoping everyones 2007 is a prosperous and happy one ...

Lack of girlfriend this year has been pretty lame but I guess they're too immature for me anyway at this age.

I really liked this year, I've made tons of friends, some old that I lost touch with, some completely new, most to do with Lee Evans.
In 2007, I plan to excercise more, try to eat vegetables and finally get my revenge on those who decieved me, oh and try not to fall asleep in class.
Not much of a change, all of them have been previously nonsuccessful...

Well next year planning on climbing Everest for charity, hope that goes well. Been training for two years now. Then hopefully a trip around the world see some things.

2006 hasn't been that interesting really, feels more like a routine of day after day.

This years been good, nothing particularly good or bad of any significance has happened (well we set a wedding date but got engaged 2 years ago).

As for next year I definately want to lose more weight for the wedding but apart from the just more of the same really, stay healthy and out of trouble.

This last year has probably been the most stable for about 11 years since I did my GCSE's what with doing them, then A - Levels then University, moving out of home, getting engaged and progressing through the career ladder.

I keep expecting something bad to crop up and derail me but I've come to realise you just take things as they happen and most worries you have don't happen anyway it's just your overactive mind playing up.

This is a bit like a practice for my New Years Resolutions!

Starting now, really, I need to change things.

I need to do more fitness training. I need to go to Taekwondo more. I need to work harder and I also need to get around to writing a decent full length novel.

How many of those things will I accomplish next year? Hopefully at least 50%
