How To Sum Up 2007?

January 02, 2008 Posted by Vaire

'From misery to happiness'* would be the most accurate phrase to sum up my last year. Here are the high- and lowlights month by month.

January

Highlight: We hosted the 12th Night Coronation in Dublin.
Lowlight: Bored out of my wits at work, continued to look for work in Sweden.

February

Highlight: The first job interviews in Stockholm.
Lowlight: Got a job, but after agonizing over it, decided not to take it.

March

Highlight: Trip to Bray. R and I took a Dart to Bray, had picnic, a nice walk and shopped a little.
Lowlight: Bored out of my wits at work, continued to look for work in Sweden.

April

Highlight: Spring Crown Tourney in Sweden.
Lowlight: Bored out of my wits at work, continued to look for work in Sweden. In addition to that, we had to vacate the house we'd lived in by 1st of May. More stress looking for a room.

May

Highlight: I got a job in Stockholm.
Lowlight: No Internet at the house I'd moved to, being really REALLY bored at work.

June

Highlight: Moving back to Stockholm.
Lowlight: Organizing the move.

July

Highlight: The cats, oh how I'd missed them.
Lowlight: None, actually.

August

Highlight: The support of my friends and family.
Lowlight: My partner of 4½ years broke up with me.

September

Highlight: Signing the contract on the apartment.
Lowlight: Looking for an apartment to buy.

October

Highlight: IKEA shopping, continuing support from my friends and family.
Lowlight: Organizing yet another move, my 7th in four years.

November

Highlight: Moving to my very own apartment.
Lowlight: Moving to the apartment.

December

Highlight: Living in my very own apartment, visiting my family over the holidays.
Lowlight: None.

2007 didn't begin too well and it took a nose dive in August. It ended very well, though. I'm happy and I intend to keep on being happy in 2008 too.
