2009 you will be forgotton and not missed

No this is not a breakdown of the year or even the decade that is coming to a close, you were all there at some point... so whatever.


What I will say is that Good Riddence to 2009. Maybe it's just me but my goodness...what a waste. I can say hand on heart that for me 2009 was a 'filler' year...thats my opinion. It was also a sombre year, a year that dragged on (but kind of didnt), and didn't really allow for much accomplishment.
Celebs fell (yes they are human too, I know) like dominoes...i think it was a case of it being celebs that I all knew...or grew up knowing and the fact that the majority of them just died fatally, I know some were ill, but we were told they were in remission, having a come back tour...see as a child of late 80s/90s I found more affinity towards Patrick Swayze, John Hughes, Michael Jackson, even Jade Goody and Brittany Murphy, than I did to past celebs, because I could safely say, I grew up and they were around growing up too - (Micheal was just always there) but Murphy from Clueless, Hughes from every best teen film of the 80s and family movies of the early 90s - Swayze from Dirty Dancing, Ghost and that film he did with Keanu Reeves...so it was a little close to home methinks.
The press banged on about Recession, no one listened really. Even Obamas augaration seems like it was a decade ago, the hype has died down and those people expecting quick fire results now realise that he is just someone who set the wheels in motion for a better future.

Good lord - see this post is sombre...



Yes I did things I am proud of - but I ve done better things that I remember in 1999...I doubt this odd 12 month will even register. I felt like I slept through it. 2009. The Year that time should forget.
