The year is ending...what's your greatest accomplishment?

[LegoDudeGuy]

My year in order:

Finished Grade 10 (woooo)

Went on a family road trip of the American West (Was AWESOME)

And, most awesome, went to BLIZZCON with my BEST FRIEND!!!

SO yeah, that is my year.

PS: I am Canadian.

 

[Zulnam]

Graduated University.
Got a promotion at work and got to be a miniboss during a project.
Read some cool books (Lord of the Flies, Nineteen Eighty-Four etc.).
Started miniature figurine painting as a hobby (I was planning that crap for almost a DECADE!).
Renovated my flat and got a 40 inch TV + PS3.

Still, this has been a pretty shitty year for me. I don't know... Last year was more fun, even with a smaller salary and exams still on the horizon.

Also, I would like to point out that quitting smoking is easy. I've done it hundreds of times... >_> _> <_<

 

[Realitycrash]

Nailed a stripper and soon to be cover-model (what? It's been a slow and rather shitty year, so something so lame as this is actually my "greatest accomplishment".)

also lied on an escapist thread to look kewl.

You do know that strippers also have sex, right? And so do underwear-models? Meaning that someone has to have sex with them for that to be possible? Since this is the internet, I understand your skeptical view of people claiming to have had sex ("because noone who hangs out on the internet ever has sex"), but calling someone a liar is rather rude.
So either believe me, or don't. I don't care, but don't call me a liar.

[Zorak the Mantis]

I think my greatest physical accomplishment for this year was climbing Mt. Washington this past January. However the best thing to happen all year was visiting my friend in AZ

actually I do know. I just wouldn't brag about it here, because it looks like what it most likely is: lying.

I donated a model I painted to the Foodhammer charity event's silent auction. I don't know how much it sold for but the charity itself generated a couple thousand dollars for the local food bank.

 

[AnotherAvatar]

Started college, and also I'm absurdly proud of the new song I'm working on. Now that you mention it I should finish it before the end of the year.

Great job on quitting smoking by the way, that is a beast, be proud of that.

Edit: Oh, forgot my first music festival. That was so crazy.

 

[dudehead]

Breaking up with my girlfriend. Asking another girl who her favorite Doctor is...

 

[Nouw]

I got money for writing an essay. It is now my budget for spending on Desert Bus! Why is it my greatest accomplishment? I've never gotten any actual awards so I was quite happy. Then again it was in Korean School so it doesn't really count.

I can proudly say for myself, I finally managed to quit smoking.

Fuck yeah man, good on you!

 

[Valkaris]

I finished Song of Ice and fire book 1-5 in a week.

 

[Infernai]

Passing my first year of University and not actually failing my subjects.

Eh, not much but hey it's something atleast so it's an accomplishment for me, especially considering my low expectations as to where i would be originally post-highschool.

 

[BlackStar42]

Survived Freshers week, got better at guitar, met a bunch of awesome people and discovered what a disgusting drink Guinness is.

 

[Lem0nade Inlay]

Getting the most amazing girlfriend ever and still going out with her now (It's been nine months).

This year has been the best year of my life so far...I'm sad to see it go, but I'm looking forward so much to the next year!

 

[moose49408]

Either completing my Masters degree or loosing 60 pounds...one of the two. It really ought to be the Masters without question, but I've been overweight since high school; finally being a healthy weight feels like a really big accomplishment.

 

[ChildofGallifrey]

For me it's a tie between being one of the first 13 people to graduate from a full-time program at one of the most respected acting schools in the world and having the founder of the school (who is never mentioned without the word 'legendary' preceding) telling me that I was the standout of the class, and my first show after graduating opening off-Broadway (the actors equivalent of top 5 ranked college sports, or like class AAA baseball, just a small step below the big time).

 

[phylline]

'Getting over' a suicide attempt and making an effort to combat an eating disorder, attachment issues and severe depression, along with getting into a very highly-rated college. Been a wonderful year.
