My anxiety ramped up tenfold, I became very depressed, I think I developed an eating disorder and I tried to kill myself a few times. 10/10 year
Honestly. 2014 was the worst year I've had. 2013 was a disaster, but nothing compared to 2014. On a brighter note, I left a job I was unhappy with and moved to a new city in a new state and left everything behind to startover. I'm working as a Maintenance Technician for the City Housing, and live in a small Winnebago. I'm happier here. I look forward to 2015. I think this will be a great year, especially with Oculusrift and Source2 just around the corner.
Worst since 2012.
I went in and out of therapy, started taking medication, got pulled out of school, had ass-surgery, started a drinking habit, and wasted the remainder online, too disappointed to do anything. It was fucking abysmal and I won't miss it.
very shitty, I literally did nothing productive
I graduated from High School. I got into a university that is one of the most, if not the most, prestigious here, so that's nice. I finished my first semester, made new friends, etc. It was a pretty good year, not my best though.
5/10 I learned a lot of essential life stuff.... but I have so much more to retrieve. I'm hoping I find that special someone this year.
+Became Facepunch mod +Had the courage to do freelance code/graphic design work for money +Met a ton of new friends, through Facepunch/Garry's Mod/university +Started a university course based around graphic design -Broke up with my boyfriend of two years +Started hanging out with his friends because I was clingy and couldn't move, turns out they're really awesome people -Ended up self-harming a few times which I hadn't done since 2010 because I'm a fucking dipshit +Went to a pug festival ([url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gb_m8CJHdSA]i spent the whole day just laughing in bliss)[/url] +Became open about parts of my personality that I've hidden my entire life Like, it's been a really fucking weird year me, so much has changed. There's been so many ups and downs and while I've had a really hard couple of months, I'm actually doing really good right now and feel fantastic
uneventful
Worst year so far.
Had my first actual work experience My parents split up after being together for ~30 years My grandmother got cancer but got cured because they discovered it early My sister got a son My sister was proposed to, so she's getting married this year around summertime.. which will be my first ever wedding to attend.
nothing special really
Lost my girlfriend Having some really nice friends There's a lot more but are just small things, but so far this really is a bad year.
Pretty shit honestly I flunked an electrical course which I hated anyway so I have to go back for a couple of tests to get the certificate. I still haven't gotten a GF or even really interacted with many girls apart from the ones in my class and a few others but one of them bailed last minute everytime and the other I never heard back from, and people are like to me "why haven't you got one yet", including my brother, and I am feeling somewhat left out and saddened by my inability to do those sorts of things, I mean I am an ok looking guy and I am not too bad of a guy to talk to, but whatever. I got hit by a car while riding my bike to school and I think my other knee is fucked (I had a busted one already) Have had a shitty job at KFC with a bitchy roster manager that made snarky comments about me behind my back, bitched whenever I was sick (like migraine, lightheadedness, vomiting and diarhea sick) and gave me shitty rosters (shifting me when I can't work and shifts I am uncomfortable with doing as in they're at a bad time but still doable), I am gonna apply somewhere else really soon Father has been trying to get me to go to the armed forces even though I don't really want to anymore, he's also been putting immense pressure on me to choose a profession and set it in stone. I feel like my friends have somewhat left me since I decided to do a different senior school program. Like I never see them and they're never online. The friend I see the most is pretty much my next door neighbour and my parents have split custody so I see him in random intervals and the other thing is he has a GF, a job and he goes to university so I don't see him as much as I used to. My nan died and it has been the 5th year since my stepdad died (I was really close to him) and I can't stop thinking about him. On the upside I got my first car, a 5-speed '91 Toyota Celica
Lost 20kg and started to exercise more. Got new job that I actually enjoy doing with higher pay than my last shitty job.
had alot of sex got a job etc
[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;46830627]You mind explaining?[/QUOTE] The fighting between my first gf has nothing to do with the other girlfriend, we've just been getting in more fights then usual Me and my gf both wanted to date another girl, we are both dating the other girl, and the other girl is dating both of us, it is called a triad
It was really fucking shit. Didn't accomplish anything Fucked my grades up Parents are worse than ever etc etc [editline]1st January 2015[/editline] Also my grandpa died on Christmas Day
+ got to waltz for a crowd at Homecoming (fulfilling a very odd desire of mine) - we didn't get lessons so we sucked + got first girlfriend - she broke up with me + won virtual stock market game, everyone thinks I'm an Econ god + got all As in the first semester for the first time + more confident - also more crude, brash, and to some egotistical + made a lot of new friends + had a fulfilling summer volunteering at a hospital + finally read The Brothers Karamazov + started lifting weights - classmate died
On the plus side, I got an abused cat from some dumb methhead who couldn't care for it. On the downside, my old cat is dead, I suspect my mother may have lost her mind (total bouts of paranoia), my dad's alcoholism has become significantly worse, money is getting harder and harder to come buy, I lost all contact with some good friends, and I remembered a little event from my early childhood that is giving me a constant, grating feeling of guilt and nausea. So, overall, a pretty shit year.
