I think it goes like this IMO
2008 = Good.
2009 = Bad.
2010 = Good.
2011 = Meh.
2012 = loving Awesome.
2013 = Bad.
2014 = Also Awesome.
2015 = Not Good.
2016 = Okay I guess.
2017 = I have a prediction that this year will be bad for me since Odd Number Years are usually pretty bad in my life.
But this is in my opinion.
