This was a hard one.
I went through the years worth of post looking for interesting pics and events to share and it all seemed kinda bleak.
I hate saying that, I’ve never really declared a year to be a bad one before, but man 2009; you sucked!
Still, I know that this is about change and letting go of old dreams so I can have even better opportunities, it’s a hard struggle, but worth it. There were still momentous events for my personal year, things that will be valuable for 2010 and beyond and it’s time to celebrate them.
To do that, I’m going to go back to the original format from 2007 and present the top events of 2009!

Moment Of The Year
This picture is the last thing I took at AFO and is the perfect representation of how I feel.
It’s a sad picture, but also one of hope. After all, for every ending, for every show complete there’s the memory of what was achieved and the promise of new adventures to come. 2009 was a year of huge change and that’s always painful.
I’m glad it went as smoothly as it did.
haha less of a year end review and more of an index of your site, im glad my template has evolved in hyperlink form! Finishing up mine now. 2009 was kind of a downer year but it had its perks.
Actually I would have hyper linked the original 2007 post, but myspace’s link system made that really difficult.
I liked last year’s picture version but it’s just too damn bandwidth heavy to do properly.
I did just install a stats system that shows me what pages are being viewed and how. I’m tweaking my technique to make it easier for people to find things on the site. You can expect a lot more hyperlinks from now on I think.
