Your best moment of 2004

Mr.Nice Guy

I know there's a couple of weeks left but what do you feel was your high point for 2004?
I would say mine was getting through the Leaving Cert with the points I needed.
I don't envy those who still have to go through that exam.I'm just glad I got through it alright.

Tiriel

think it was the day I found out I got my postgrad.. I was in shock.. so needed much alcohol

Concannon7

I suppose going on holidays to Lanzarote or getting my college results and knowing I'll be going back to college for another year. Theres probably a few more I cant think of at the moment.

Tommy Vercetti

probably getting the keys to my first house

Getting out of hospital after a 2 month visit.

Evilution

There's loads.

Getting a tour of mountjoy and ending up IN with the prisoners. Certainly dodgy, but totally f**king cool too.
Getting great exam results and going into 3rd year in Uni.
Having a laugh in the states over the summer.
The moment where the pain from an abcess (spl?) in my tooth ended. Post-orgasmic, it has to be said.
Chucking in my job in Roches Stores to go to the states. Ah, bliss.
Finally telling my friends girlfriend what I really thought of her instead of playing happy families all the time.
Knocking the snot out of some wanker in a dublin niteclub who took a swing at me for no reason.
Getting all my 3rd year electives in Uni.
Walking down Broadway in New York on a warm July day, taking in the sights.
Sitting out a rain shower on the steps of the Guggenheim museum, again in NYC.

You're a bitter man.

T "real deal" J

Liverpool scoring in the last minute against Arsenal. Shot out of no-where MELLOR. Best moment of my life.

captainplanet

waking up in my friends attic (not knowing where i was)
having a 7 year old boy that i used to look after, dance for me whilst his sister sang (sk8or boi) made funnier by the fact that he cant dance, just wobbled.
my boyfriend surprising me with a picnic.
filling a room full of balloons and then contemplating how best to travel to east wall with them.

good times.

Failing college and then being let into second year cos i begged

FranknFurter

Finding out my sister is pregnant for the first time and seeing her face when she told us.

being told I would be keeping my leg (after being told I was gonna lose it this year if I kept smoking, so I quit after 17 years), (PS: Im only 27, so all you young smokers, be warned, its not all scaremongering after all)

Oh, and catching my first ever bus! lol

Watching my son being born.

Woden

McClane

Beckhams penalty in Euro 2004

Yeah that rocked.

the old spark came back and we got flirtin and the fella got so pissed off apparently! it was great!!

LOL.

A great one is to act as nice as possible to him but with a dirty sly grin on your face anytime you mention your ex and you meeting since ye broke up. Priceless

misswex

So many good memories, 2004 was a brilliant year:

My best friend having her first baby.
Meeting my boyfriend.
Getting my new car.
Going to see the LOTR exhibit in London.
The fun girlie trips to Galway!!

Kersh

Winning 2 championships in circuit racing this year. Well worth the effort

ven0m

I've several;

* meeting the girl I'm seeing
* buying my harley davidson
* finishing building my own guitar
* moving into my own apartment
* finally got into a field of work I always wanted to get into
* seeing A Perfect Circle live for the first time
* Going to the Monaco GP for the first time

2004 has EASILY been the best year of my life ever.... after so many **** years battling depression & drug problems - this year has been the cherry!!!

Sleepy

Can't think of too many, it's been a dreary year. Probably my first experience of white widow grass. Either that or finally moving into a house with people I really seem to get on with (just scraped in for the year, moved in last weekend!).

Tha Gopher

Exam results? Yis really are a boring lot if thats your highlight. "Oh great,got 500 points to do a course that i wont even end up working in the same field of in 10 years" For me it was an anti climax-we were ****ed onto the streets by midnight thanks to the ****e opening hours

Anyway,best time was in a muddy field in Kildare moshin as wu tang clan played Gravel Pit at Oxegen
Most of the rest of their set is a blur,thank you very much synthetic drugs. Only recall bits of it
The dance arena there was the happiest place on planet earth,on a whole probably the best weekend of my life,a drug and alcohol fuelled blur of rap and dance

Other highlights
House party I unintentionally held when ida free gaff. Tore the mother****ing roof of,twas truly the stuff of legend. The gaff got wrecked,money and one or two cds were robbed by skangers.....but the madness far outweighed the badness. Snoop Doggs song Gin and Juice is what happened to a t,as in lyrically speaking it was all a rather similiar portrayal. Bitches in the livin room etc. Madness
Also
Movin out of the parents gaff
Movin back to Dublin
Night after "graduation" from school(y`know,the last night mass thing,not the american type). There was alot of drink taken
The early hours of last New Years Day. Legend of a night

Third_Echelon

-> My holiday in New Zealand (Bungy jumping, white water rafting, snowboarding)

-> Everton beating Liverpool on Saturday

Peteee

mmm

*Getting my exam results (i was fully sure i failed, but i got on grand).
*Spending so many great nights up drinking/talking with my roommates, who are all my best mates as well. Even though we all made fools out of ourselves multiple times, yer all great
*Making a film, that turned out reasonable enough too.
*Playing Half Life 2 (finally) and saying cool every few minutes (yes that is sad).

SprostonGreen

Getting my first car.

gimmick

* Passing my driving test 1st go
* Holidays in Spain
* Handing in my notice to my old job, and having my ex boss begging and throwing money at me to stay.
* Final Whistle when Cork City beat NEC Nijmegen to progress in Europe.


2004 has been a great year for me, and its not over yet. Heres hoping 2005 is as good

ClareBear

It was a good year....lots of cool concerts, weekends away, moving away for college, moving in with the coolest girls ever, making lots of new friends....main thing was someone I've loved for a long time finally realising he felt the same way

orangerooster

From the moment I got on a train headed towards Sallins station for Oxegen till when I left the station in Kildare was the best weekend I've ever had-four days of drug/drink fuelled madness.

Moving up to college,the nights out that went along with that and the new mates I've made along the way.
