The year that was – a meme

201024Dec

by Grace

Only one week and we say goodbye to 2010. Was it a wonderful year for you? So-so? or Bad one (I hope not!)? What’s more perfect to look back on the year by answering this meme. It makes you bring back the good memories of 2010 as well as the lessons learned.

When the holiday dust settles, you can take a break from cleaning and washing dishes by looking back at 2010.

Please feel free to copy the following questions and from today 24th December 2010, have fun answering them. On the last day of the year, I will put up my answers with a linky tool so you can link up your post.

I would love to see how your 2010 went!

(of course you can skip questions you don’t like to answer! Totally up to you. I found this meme in 2006 through Wenchy, a blog friend of mine living in South Africa and ever since, I’ve been doing it every year.)

On to a greater, happier and luckier 2011!

Edited: You can find my answers to the meme and the linky to leave your post URL here.
