So 2011 is drawing to a close and I was wondering what everyone's biggest achievement this year has been? For me I think it was getting used to life after University, living away from my parents and having to truly fend for myself for the first time with regards to money work and bills. Also this year my Theatre Company achieved a 5 star review at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival which is notoriously hard to do. I am very proud of myself for achieving these things so what about you?

I think that it is achievements like that which put all others into perspective. I think that if you survive an illness like that it helps you to live life in a different way and achieve other things you never thought you would have. I wish you the best for the future and I truly hope you will be cancer free permanently.

Congratulations on getting the job and being able to move out. It's kind of weird being on your own away from your parents at first but then I find you can't imagine living back with them again!

I thought I have been always lucky as person because this year I am asked to work as cashier. I didn't know why I am always working as cashier in each that I have been working through, but overall I like my new job. If this question were asked about ten years, my biggest achievement was I graduated from University, but It has been ten years ago. I like my every year achievement no matter I was up and down through them.

I think your achievements change depending on your activities during that year, sometimes we achieve big things sometimes small. I'm glad you are happy with your new job, I think that it is not the kind of job that is important but that you enjoy doing it and that you like going to work!

The year 2011 would go down to be the most memorable time of my life. Last September i just passed the Nursing Licensure Examination. Thereby making me a full fledged nurse. What makes it cool is that each and everyone of my close friends also passed. We get to celebrate together without any form of sadness since we all passed.

Congratulations on becoming a Nurse! That is such a wonderful career to go in to and you will be able to help so many people Also it's great all your friends passed and you were able to celebrate together, it is always awful if someone fails and is unable to be involved in everyone's enjoyment.

I think my biggest achievement this year are the time when I finally fall in love with my best friend and become his girlfriend, also when I passed everything that I took last semester (kind of hard to maintain grades in the engineering field), and of course when I got the scholarship for this semester. Hoping to land a good part time job too before the year ends. So, best of luck to me..lol ;-) ^_^

This year was really a blessing for me and my family. First event to be thankful was when I graduated. Of course after four years of hardwork paid off and I had the chance to give my parents back what they have invested and that is offering my diploma. Second was passing the board exam if it was not for God's guidance i would not make it. Wonderful year for me for achieving much in just a year. Merry Christmas!

hello, My biggest achievement in school is that I became a deans list and also learning things online like earning some extra cash. Which really a big use in case of emergency. I can work them both while I am studying and working online. It really help me because I can bought my own things online.

Congratulations on making the deans list. I think it is also an achievement to be able to juggle both studying and working online because you have to have really good time management and it was something I was never very good at when I was in school!

I think myLot is awesome and even though i haven't reach my payment I am looking foward to that.

Congratulations on the job! I think with all the recession that has been happening it has become increasingly hard to find work whatever kind it is. I hope that you are enjoying your job and that you have successes within it in the coming year.
