My best year was 2003 because I was actually active that year. I dunno how to explain it really, except that I was actually getting out of the house and enjoying myself. And it was relatively drama-free! Normally I usually have some sort of drama stint at least once at some point in the year--either my parents fight or people I know fight, but that didn't actually end up happening all of that year.
...Also, I joined most of my first online communities in 2003, although that's mostly unrelated.
Worst was 1996, although this one is close, but you said not to mention it because it's not over, so...
Anyway, most of the year wasn't too bad, honestly (my sister was born, but I hardly remember that for some reason). The really crappy part was when I stayed at my grandparents'--there was a lot of familial drama then and my parents were fighting a lot. Not to mention my Dad's family consists of mostly pretty miserable people... and then there was church, and then I ended up having a nervous breakdown in the middle of school once because all of the bullshit was weighing down on me...
And other stuff. I won't go into detail. I hate thinking about most of it, really.
