That's when you know you've been spending too much time on the internet. So was your low point the sheer sense of desperation?

YourAMentalist

For the first time in a while I will be sad to see this year end and delighted for a new one to begin

You'll last long.

I just read your post history. All I can say is that you seem like a very sad individual indeed - registered / re-registered simply to post a load of bile, spiteful & hateful shite.

Your life must be really empty if that's what you have to do for kicks.

Starting college (again) and loving my course this time.

Lows :

Nothing too major, thankfully.

By your post history, I'd say you're 15 & live at home with your ma.

If you ever get to earn 100 grand a year, I'd be very surprised.

Be careful, those people are the people you depend on. They cook your meals, they empty your bins, they connect your calls, they drive your ambulances...
They guard you while you sleep. DO NOT fuck with them.

Hopefully next year will be better, I'll be going back to college, taking my ukulele lessins seriously and properly trying to get my full license.

High - Summer in Africa

Low - Getting 'courted' and consequently dumped by my best friend of the opposite sex.

Hmm cant really think of any major highs and lows...
High was probably transferring to a new job at the start of the year
Low...well I cant think of anything in particular so thats definately a good sign. Was a non eventful year, but thats not to say it wasnt great in its way, I had a good 2011.

As for this year, it's starting grim but I say bring it on.
