2012 Year Review

Okay Well, today marked the last day for the 2011-2012 year for many people, because you know what? Tomorrow begins a new chapter of another year. But for this blog post it will be a review of all the 2012 things that happened and judge them whether it was a good year or not. Lets begin with some personal life. School first, well lots of catching up to do in school this year, although many downs I was able to pull off decent marks, even though I think I did pretty bad. So I got lucky there!! Overall I'll give it a C+ grade! Other things included work and my driving test. Ha! Work was really fun! Had fun working with my co-workers and my forepersons!! Started to really get to know my co-workers a lot more!!! And my driving test, well didn't take the first test due to sick but was able to pass the second time!!! Soo A right there!! Now time for some Yahoo Fantasy Hockey. After coming as champion for the second consecutive time, I had high expectations for myself this season. Although I finished with the greatest record in the regular season, I fell short in the Semi final to the eventual league championship but finished 3rd, massively destroyed Team thething. In my VCanucks2012 league, I also finished 1st with the best record but after a really hard fought Semi Final week, I fell short to the eventual league champion but also finishing 3rd. So I can't say it was a bad year so I'll give it a B right there Well time for some sports, the Vancouver Canucks first. After the bitter loss in 2011 to the Bruins, they looked for some revenge. They repeat as presidents trophy winners which I always opposed to, since day 1. Where they met the LA Kings in round 1 which they were defeated in 5 games, with Daniel Sedin out for 60% of the series. The Kings would eventually go on to win the cup! I give it a C- My Phoenix Suns, they were on rebuilding mode since 2011 I didn't have much expectations for them. They didn't make the playoffs which was expected, so I don't have much to say about them. Although during the playoffs I was hoping for Lebron to win his first championship which it did, so I'm happy for him! I'll give it a B for NBA Now the New England Patriots, the Patriots dominated the AFC with a 13-3 record, second behind to the Green Bay Packers and the Patriots made it to the Superbowl where they had to face the New York Giants. Same fate happened to the Patriots where they lost the game in the final minute. Which was utterly disappointing, as a result I'll give it a C+ Now for the BC Lions, they started off slow but eventually picked it up and dominated since then! 8 game winning streak going to the playoffs with the best defence and then became league champ over the Winnipeg blue bombers!! Great job Lions!! Grade: A More hockey, the World juniors. Team Canada with the new looks, played well until they the bitter rivals of Russia in the Semis where their epic miracles down 5 goals in the 3rd ended with a 6-5 loss, but they still took home the bronze over Finland and Sweden defeated the Russians 1-0, therefore it wasn't really that bad. Grade: B Now last but not least, the Euro 2012 cup. After a very disappointing 2008 performance and 2010 world cup, England seeks revenge. They topped Group D with a 2-0-1 record, beating Ukraine and Sweden and tying France. Where in the Quarter final they met Italy. A 0-0 game even after extra time means a PK where England has never been successful at all. I guess this explains everything where England lost 4-2 in PK. Although England lost, Germany and Portugal didn't do all that better, losing to Italy and Spain. Eventually Spain took on Italy and creamed them, 4-0. So its not really that bad. Grade: B Anyways, lets sum up the results, Sports overall grade: C+ and Life grade: C+ So overall 2012 has been a C+. Well I don't know how 2013 will do!! 2012 wasn't really that good but I guess its time to move on!
