Highs:

I FOUND THIS SITE. :D
I managed to collect about 70-80 autographs this year.
I managed to avoid getting RTS's well.
I finally got some of the things I asked for a long time ago back.
My family bought me lots of inserts for my binder for my autographs.
Patriots players are FINALLY sending back my cards.
..I'm also certain that I got an autograph or something for Christmas. I accidentally stumbled upon an envelope of my mothers that has all the signs of being an autograph, yet it came from my aunt. :o
I've gotten a lot of lightning fast responses, whether it's through e-mail or regular mail.

Lows:

The first two months or so of this year were dry spells, along with 2 months of the summer.
Didn't meet anyone IP this year.
Brett Somers died. ( :cry: , I was going to send for her but she died. I really liked her!)
So many requests sent out (I bet I spent about..ohh..$40-$60 this year? I sent more e-mail than TTM though) that haven't come back yet..maybe some people will put me in a boat like cernan was with Alan Rickman. :lol:

HIGHS - getting some very quick responses, including a personalised photo from 'Mr.Rugby' - the gorgeous Jonny Wilkinson!

LOWS - missing out on meeting one of my favourite indie-rock bands, Razorlight, in person when I knew where their hotel was + leaving their show after they finished their set at a club not knowing they were going to remain behind and mingle with the audience :? :(. Also, coming to terms that Prince William will NOT sign autographs lol
