What was your Favorite thing about 2011?

Well I thought we should have an open discussion of what was our favorite "_" Of the year. It can be anything! A skating event, related to WBO, music, an general event, or VGA. Lol. It can also be more than one thing.

1)Well my favorite time of the year was discovering J Cole thru listening Lost Ones, and Can't Get Enough. Im a huge J Cole fan now. Smile

2)Uhm, my favorite thread on WBO is the MF Lightning L DragoBD145LRF and Kei's MF-H Gravity PersuesTH170HF/S. Outstanding threads we might never see again.

3)Going to South Beach Miami for Summer which is where I want to move when I get older. And where I want to set my music production career there lol. I do want to be part of YoungMoney.

4)Oct 2011 Homecoming. Wink Twas a special night for me.

5) Taking care of my mom when she was injured past this year. ( a bit of parent experience there!)

6) The release of The CarterIV. (it was pretty huge lol)

7) And the Holiday Hammer tourney. It was quite a challenging tourney for me, but it helped me prepped up for the next one.

Now, share yours! Smile
