So how was your 2002?

[Dabra]

The year is ending, and another one is about to start. I have a feeling it will rock!

Anyway, what happened in your life in 2002? Anything major? Aunt died? Broke a leg? Avoided death? Spent a million dollars on games? Anything else you'd like to share? Everything goes!

Me? Nothing much. Moved out from my appartment to some awkward house shaped like a 'U', where the 2 front doors are the ends of that 'U'. Other than that i got a cute Dog named Whisky, mixture of a Lhasa and a Yorshire. It was also the year which i turned 15! I used to tell everyone on PSO a couple years back that I was 15, when in reality i was like erm...12-13? Bleh, it's good to be 15. Also that same year i owned every Next-gen system there was, and when i went Cookoo on games. Bought PS2/15 games, sold it, bought XBOX/5games, sold it, bought Gamecube/5games, didn't sell, but got (once more), a PS2/14games (7 of which are PSX games). It's not that much spent if you calculate the ammount I sold and etc. It sums up to about 2000$ or so. Not counting my GBA and 7 games, my PC upgrade, and PC games. Well bottom line, I am crazy. No shit i'm so anti-social. Can't even find time to play games as it is.

Anyway screw me, what about you? Just share it here, your favorite 2002 experiences!

In 2002:

I worked for a major bookstore in the summer (fun fun fun, even if the pay wasn't the best for the fulltimers who were trying to pay the bills instead of working for spending cash, like me). My grandmother died in early May, as well, a few days after I started the job, and I still miss her.

I turned 21.

I bought a Gamecube, which is the first time I've ever owned a Nintendo system, the first time I've ever owned a system which is not dead or dying, and the second console I've ever actually owned on my own.

I dyed my hair blue.

I got people evicted. I started taking antidepressants.

My family moved to a smaller house this summer, too. I've got a much smaller room than I used to, but that's okay 'cause 8 months of the year I'm not even here.

Lotsa other stuff.

Gained four other job titles with my current company in this past year, giving me five total.

Started working at multiple facilities. Gamecube, X-box, broadband, radio shows, computer upgrades, and the biggest thing of all, making so many friends online. It might sound lame as hell, but I don't get out much aside from work, and it's always nice to have friends you can honestly talk to.

I can only wish for a year that will follow in this one's footsteps, good with the bad.

2002 was very much a mixed bag for me...

Most of the beginning of the year ranged from average to very depressing... I don't even remember very much of early 2002, but it wasn't so swell until April, when things really started to pick up. First, I got a pretty nice computer which I've upgraded a bit since; it's a pretty respectable gaming PC now.
Everything was pretty good until late summer/early fall, when I began college... and basically quit after the first two days. Long story, but it REALLY did not work out.
I was really depressed for the next week or two, but once again things started looking up again. I had basically planned on starting college again in the spring, so things could've been much worse. Part of why I was so down was because I had worked so damn hard to get into college in the first place, so it was pretty devestating. Presently, I'm still trying to decide if I WANT to start college again. That's another topic altogether, but I'll make up my mind soon.

Anyway, it's had its ups and downs, for sure... I've learned a hell of a lot about myself and others, and I think I've managed to become a bit of a stronger person throughout the year.
2003 is gonna be a much better year for me though, I'm sure of that. What it'll consist of, I have no idea yet... But I'm gonna make sure that my 19th damn year is a very successful one.
A little less PSO might be a good start. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_nerd.gif

While I'm at it, a few New Years resolutions:
-Take up DJing, no matter what the cost. It'll be a huge investment, but it's been something I wanted to do for the past few years, ever since I became interested in dance music and electronic music culture. I've experimented with producing my own music with a little success, but I think I'd be better off, for the time being, with mixing rather than full-out production.
-Becoming a little more social wouldn't hurt, either. No, that's not right, actually... I AM social to a certain extent, but only when I'm around people I know. More like... I need to get out more often. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_bored.gif It's been a while since I've had any REAL social interaction, and way too long since I've met any lovely ladies. Chicks dig long hair, I'm tellin' ya. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif

Hmm... I have some more resolutions, but nothing else I'd wanna share for now. Mostly personal stuff that would take too long to explain. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I too, don't get out much, what with school, being online, PSO, and having no friends in my neighborhood cause they're all little pricks.

Get all that? I wouldn't strain too hard reading it, you might create a picture of me in your mind, and, arguably, that could be a good or a bad thing.
