Tempmas 2012 Week 4: Tell me what you want, what you really really want!

[dgwillia]

Tie between my cousin getting drafted into the NFL first round after years of hard work, and getting A's in all of my classes this semester (After being on probation for a semester due to bad grades)

Probably cliche as well, but when I finished my first marathon this year. Grandma's Marathon in Duluth, MN in June. I was so happy when I crossed the finish line and just hugged my mom and cried tears of joy.

Well my happiest memory of this year was when I left my original company and transferred to another company. I ended up working in Japan for 3 months after 10 working days here. Hope I win and the Wii U gets Wii U mode homebrew after.

Getting my first job, for sure. I actually started about a week ago, so the paycheck hasn't hit yet, but it's a major step forward when I feel like I've just been kinda stagnant these past few years.

Been through a year of ups and downs, but my happiest and most satisfiying memory was getting compliments about my perfomance in university form my teacher of... biological fundaments of behaviour (I think it would translate to that). Really an awesome class, and quite hard too. I basically lived and even stopped playing for it. In the end it was rewarding and totally worth it. It also let me spend some good times with my girl, since we both study the same career, and we both tried really hard, studying together Experiencing a class like that, after years of bleak education, (I mean, I'm in the 3rd world after all...), really, really, makes me happy.

Thanks for everything, 'temp. I've always enjoyed this kind of special competitions you've done through the years. Really exciting too.

The thing that made me happiest this year was getting my first pet fish, nearly killing it by accidental neglect, but watching it get healthier and survive.

Like many people, 2012 wasn't the most pleasant. But there were many great thinks I'm happy for. My happiest memory this year might be cliche, but whatever.
I met this girl I really, really, reeeaaaalllly like. We aren't dating, nor am I friendzoned. (She has a boyfriend but there is no love, I swear..) We are really close. That was a little insider. But meeting her lead up to my happiest moment of this year for me. For Christmas I got her a necklace and she was really happy, which made me happy. She told her friends about it, my friends about it, and even Instagrammed it! It's pretty embarrassing that I got excited over an image on IG, but hey, it's the truth.
The post she made made me smile like a 12 year old school girl thinking about Justin Bieber.

I haven't been as active this year as the year before, but I shall get on more often in the future.
Have a great new year everyone! ^^

kicked out of my mom house , happily living by myself with a good job (next year im goig to start my butcher class : D )

 

[[M]artin]

Definitely every moment spent with a certain special girl in my life, she brightens up my day every time we meet. I hate all that mushy stuff but, yeah, this is an exception.

 

[gameworm2.0]

Picking my happiest moment this year is tough because so many great things happened to me this year. However, if I had to pick just one it would have to be the birth of my first child. I had never known what happiness and joy were until that moment.

My first trip to Japan! It was fun

My runner-up best memory for this year. Not my official entry, I'm sticking with my original for my official competition entry. But I wanted to share this all the same for all those who have been accosted by moronic kids this year, or given abuse on the street by a fourteen year old who thinks he can take on a full grown man. A tale of urban youth being dealt with by its own stupidity biting it on the arse.

I saw a chav get hit by a car a few months back. One of those prats who acts all big and bad, thinking he can cross the road in heavy traffic and the whole world will stop for him so he can go as slowly as possible to impress his equally ignorant mates. Boy was he wrong. BAM! Broken leg, shattered shoulder, bike twisted beyond repair, and virtually no damage to the innocent driver who couldn't possibly have reacted in time.

Oh, don't worry. The idiot lived. But I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the prick taken down a few pegs and taught that he's not the absolute centre of the known universe (how could he be? I am ), in front of all his dumb little mates. I'm not saying he deserved it, but hey, if Fate wants to teach idiots a lesson, I'm all for it.

Favourite memory,huh...
Finishing all Zelda games!!!!!

 

[jakeyjake]

My happiest memory was when I found out I didn't have to go live with my step dad again. Ever again.

 

[noob killer]

the happiest moment would probably be resident evil 6 release

 

[w!!]

Happiest memory... Getting our new dog from the shelter!

 

[Minji20]

I'm not really sure, but maybe making it into my local youth orchestra? It's not so much about getting in, but just being in it has made me really happy because it's a lot of fun playing with a full orchestra and my friends. There's also a certain special somebody there.... although I'm pretty sure he forgets my existence too many times. But oh well. For me, 2012 has pretty much been nothing but good memories. At the very least, if I had any, I can't remember them. So, a good thing.

I'm not saying he deserved it, but hey, if Fate wants to teach idiots a lesson, I'm all for it.

And the voice of reason spoke again. I understand what you're talking about for living it every day, due to me living in a city filled with all sorts of schools (which implies students of all ages, although mostly of the 12-20 years old variant), and thus seeing those "acts of bravery" (read : acts of stupidity) nearly every day.

To give you an idea, I've got attacked 50+ times this year by guys and girls who thought (as I'm looking like some typical geek, with glasses, long hair and such) I'd be an easy target for money and fame over their friends. Their losses.
