Although 2021 was largely shadowed by COVID-19 and I ended up hospitalised for a while, it was a good year for me with me finally moving into my own house.
Here is another one of my traditional posts that I have been doing for each year (though I decided against it in 2019). This is to keep traditions going.

2020 was a difficult year because of COVID-19. However, there were some major positives for me this year and it has made the year easier than it could have been.
Here is my traditional post that I make every year that explains the last things that I do every year. So here goes. I know how pointless these posts are, but they're tradition so I'm sticking to doing them.
Also, I write these posts every year, probably just because I'm sentimental and enjoying doing this, you don't need to be interested at all in this post.

2018 was a strange year for me. I got into teacher training, formed my own business, Jambour Digital, but I also realised that maybe I don't enjoy teaching as much as I'd have liked to have and that it might not be right for me.
Well, it's traditional that I post one of these look backs at the last things of the year and 2017 isn't going to be any different for traditions sake. This year I'm sad to say that I didn't manage my yearly competition of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
Also, I write these posts every year, probably just because I'm sentimental and enjoying doing this, you don't need to be interested at all in this post.

I keep saying that 2017 was a bad year for me, but the truth is, it wasn't that bad. 2017 saw me finally getting a gym membership, my first industry job, starting my own business, becoming a server administrator, getting my own phone line through a PBX, the release of the Nintendo Switch and much more.
I am hoping to get the next version of my website, which is currently in development, out in January of 2018.
I wish you all the best and a happy new year for 2018!
Here is another of my summaries of the year things that I do at the end of the year. I always feel sad saying goodbye to another year, and I like to remember the last day of the year in a sentimental way. That's why I'm writing this post, which will not interest anyone but me since I use my blog as a log of my life as well as a personal blog that everyone can read.
I am finishing my yearly completion of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask as we speak. I'm hoping to finish it before the year is up since I do this every year at this time of year.
Also, I write these posts every year, probably just because I'm sentimental and enjoying doing this, you don't need to be interested at all in this post.

2014 to me was not a very good year, university has been tougher than ever and my depression has managed to seep back into my life. As well as this, I lost the wonderful little Petro, who I still miss dearly. On the brighter side, we now have another rabbit - Sweep, who is turning out to be a lovely rabbit too. We also now have a hamster - Henry, who is also a lovely little fella.
On the website front, this site has been finished for months and was officially released as version 3.5 in May this year - the finalised design of the site. Since then only minor tweaks have been applied to the site.
What a year 2013 has been! It will be sad to say goodbye to it, as with every year. One of the best things of the year, in my opinion, was Andy Murray winning Wimbledon, being the first man to win it for Britain for 77 years and the first to win for Britain since 1977. You can find my 2012 list here. Anyway, here is my list of the last things I did in 2013. This was compiled on the 30/12/2013 and 31/12/2013.

Last major purchase for myself1 :Nintendo 3DS XL Zelda Edition
1 - £100 or more constitutes as a major purchase. So that's the end of 2013 almost, and it has been one heck of a good year.
Now all we have to do really is say goodbye to it and say hello to 2014. That'll be in a good few hours, and the list may have changed then!
What a year 2012 has been! We have had loads of brilliant things like the Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics, as well as the 50th anniversary of James Bond all in the space of one year! What a year indeed!
With a variety of different things being shown on TV this year as always, I felt I had like to remember 2012 my way. So what I have done here is compile a list of the last things I did in 2012, so that I have a memory forever.

So that is the end of 2012 almost, and it has been one heck of a good year. Now all we have to do really is say goodbye to it and say hello to 2013. That will be in a good few hours, and the list may have changed then! But until then, let us enjoy what is left of the year!
