My how time flies. We are now well into 2011 (very nearly wrote 2010 there) and it seems like only yesterday that I was writing about 2009. I have about six months of university left before I leave for good and enter the realm of adults. If I could, I would stay perpetually in my final year forever but we have to move onwards an upwards and with a bit of luck, it will still be good fun.
Music of 2010 has been pretty good really, not quite as good as 1009 which was a bumper year for new music and new artists but for me, 2010 was quite an awakening and my music tastes broadened to include some drum and bass and dubstep.

This song table is dominated by Marina and Alphabeat this year with a few nods to Spark, Pendulum and I Blame Coco.
| Artist | Play Count |
|---|---|
| Alphabeat | 404 |
| Marina & the Diamonds | 385 |
| Muse | 234 |
| Arcade Fire | 216 |
| Pendulum | 207 |
| I Blame Coco | 190 |
| The National | 186 |
| Electric Light Orchestra | 156 |
| Ellie Goulding | 153 |
| Amy Macdonald | 146 |
A big surprise in this table with ELO finding there way into the table at #8 and Ellie Goulding - someone I never thought I would like at this time last year, has got in at #9 mainly thanks to Wish I Stayed, The Writer and most recently, Your Song.
Other things that happened this year, I joined TSC - which has since taken over my life and every last bit of spare time I have - and some that I don't! I've met - and worked with some famous faces, learned a new programming language, finished my dissertation, become a committee member of the Computer Science Society and started and finished my job hunt.
All in all, it has been a remarkably good year - possibly one of the best years of my life. Here's hoping that this year brings much of the same - and much much more. Happy new year all!
