Mine have been going to Cape Town and the Garden Route in South Africa. Also it was getting my baby daughter. She was born in June and she will be 6 months old this Christmas. I really wanted to pass my practical driving test but I have to keep trying with that. What have been you happiest events of 2009? Will you have to have another go at something in 2010?

Going to the World Figure Skating Championships in Los Angeles would definitely be number one. It was awesome! In 2010, I plan on concentrating on paying down my credit cards. But at a minimum I would like to go see Faust in San Francisco (my mom's favorite opera)...

Those are fantastic choices my friend Dawnald. I am really pleased that you enjoyed the World Figure Skating Championship in Los Angeles. Good luck on seeing the opera in San Francisco. You will be able to feel great with paying off your credit cards.

i can say that i dont have any happy moments in 2009. maybe because i dwell in my losing a job, not once but thrice. could you picture it out? i dont have my happiest moment but i do have my most memorable day, that was when after waiting of over six months, i was finally been baptised in our church. that for me was the moment worth remembering and it was indeed a memorable one.

I enjoyed going to Florida, but I really hope to go to China in 2010. For the last couple months I've been planning on going to experience a different culture and lifestyle and It will be one of the best times of my life.

I can see you are keen on traveling and I am too. I am delighted that you had an enjoyable time in Florida. I hope that you will visit China in 2010. I know it is a country on my travel wish list for the future. I like to experience different cultures. This year I went to a poor African village.

My aunt and uncle came visiting from Germany that was great, the only thing that was a sad about it that my mom was supposed to come too but got sick right before the trip. On the bright side, now I get to look forward to her visit in June.

One of my happiest events in 2009 would be getting this computer. I really have enjoyed it and even though I've had very few problems with it, it's still so much better than my first computer was. My first computer was a used one and I had dial-up with it. Another happy event would be singing in the Messiah. Of course, I do this every year, but it's always enjoyable everytime. I always tryout for a solo and this time, I sang a different one, and I'm glad to say it turned out well. I started a discussion about the Messiah last night and you might want to check it out. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.Kathy.

I can't think of anything that I'm going to have to have another go at in 2010. I just know that I'm on the drill team out at the therapeutic riding center where I volunteer and we're going to perform at the next event we put on. I'm really looking forward to that. That will be in the spring or summer. Kathy.

Well, that would be my pregnancy. I found out my pregnancy on April, close to my birthday, so it's the best gift ever. My baby will be born on January next year, so I must say that she will be the best thing happen in 2010.

2009 is the first year I am free from school and have totally all control of my time. it was the first time I had a vacation and visited my family in the province in the middle of the year. it was impossible to do that before because of school so I am really glad. This year was a total rest year for me because I started doing everything I couldn't while in school for the past years of my life. This year is really refreshing..Next year would be kind of busier because I am planning to work seriously.. :D

Finding out I'm pregnant was hands down the best thing about 2009 for me. It's been so wonderful and exciting and I'm looking forward to this new year so I can meet my baby in June.

The biggest thing i have in 2009 is that i finally came to Europe. It is really surprising to me when my boss told me the news when i came back from Chinese new year. It was an amazing trip. For sure i am looking forward to have another one again this year, but i am more looking for the opportunity to have a new work position.

I really don't remember too many happy moments in 2009. It has been a really rough year, and I am really ready for it to be over. On a positive note, 2009 has been a good year because I have made some progress in recovering from the mistakes I made in 2008. As long as nothing else really bad happens, things could really start to get a easier for us as soon as February or March of 2010. I am really hoping that 2010 will be a much better year for me and my family.

Simple life is fine. One of the best things to have in life is good health. It is lovely that you have had some amusing moments with your family. My Lot is an excellent thing to get up to. Music can be uplifting to listen to.
