In 2010 I learned that it's always better to take the highroad -- it pays of long term. I had some personal relationship problems with a friend and stuck to the high ground and eventually he came back apologizing to me. I also learned that having self-respect is very important. At work I learned that utilizing people around me is very helpful -- re-inventing the wheel at every turn is to laborous.

For 2011 I plan on learning more about investing, stock markets (emerging markets in particular), and money sense in general. I also would like to break the 20:00 minute mark in a 5km run. I've been running lots lately and it would be a nice goal to see.

2010 - liked getting a job which I enjoy doing and meeting lots of cool new people. Also really liked getting my bike de-restricted :P

Disliked finishing uni and not being a lazy student anymore but the above has made it less painful.

2011 resolutions- would like to continue to work on exciting new projects, and go to s25 2011 in Vegas ;)

In 2010 I joined N3O, I must say, that was a good decision :D
I disliked the 4th year of school, because I'm not having classes with my best friend that often, and because I have to work harder.
In 2011 I'd love to have even more fun than I have atm.

2010: Mexico, S25 in Portugal and finally start to work in school in August were great aspects about 2010.

2011: Brazil, S25 somewhere else and passing my final exams in work are the goals i've set up.

Commodities futures are good right now. I'm up 198% since August :)


2010 taught me that building and driving race cars is a lot of fun :D

2011 I would love to get a job I really enjoy. And maybe a lady friend :P

a) I did so much stuff that it's hard to single one thing out. I'd have to say S25 in Portugal and meeting such great people IRL is probably on top of that though.
b) Money situations (just like 3/4 the world), but nothing major and nothing that can't be recovered.
and
c) I don't really do New Years Res's. However, mine is similar to Adam's - I want to take another 5 mins off my 5K time. I'm currently just under 27 mins down from 31 mins a month and a half ago, and I've just now started take these things seriously since high school which was over 15 years ago. The other is to run a 10K by the end of the year.

HEY!!!

Im also a runner! I run 2 the fridge 2 grab beer at least 5-6 times a day in between games! Jim does it 2. We often even compete with 1 another. PLUS I have stairs which means that I run and do stairs at the same time. If u dont include breathing then thats like hhmmmm... two things that I do very frequently. Im a real athlete. Any1 that has been 2 the S25 and has seen me knows this 2 b true.

And dont think 4 a second that my running skills are always directed 2wards food and beverages, quite the opposite. Even yesterday after having devoured my lamb Vinadaloo I ran 2 the bath/rest room as quickly as I could in order 2 get the nasty poison back out again. I barely made it since my trousers/pants were still clean, unlike my boxer shorts.
