-Got really sick when my summer started. Had a severe allergic reaction that put me out of commission for a little over two weeks.
-Most of my friends graduated in May. I don't have anyone to kick it with or talk to here anymore. My social skills have greatly diminished because of it. My life consists of work, school, NT/Twitter and coming home.

There's plenty more but to sum it up this was pretty much the worst year of my life thus far. Will 2010 get any better? Doubt it.

You woke up this morning.....Thats a "W"....if you make it through 2009, thats 365 "W's"

There's times where I think I'd be better off dead.


Nah fam...Dont think Like that.....Seriously. There are people in this world without food, clothes and other things that we have access to that are just"everyday normal" essentials to us...

Lifes a long, hard test....Just do your best.....God Grades with a curve....

That's what I tell myself all the time, things can be way worst for me, most of the people in the world wish they could live like me. Whythink selfishly, just address the problems you can. And for the ones you can't fix, why complain and worry about something you have no control over, youjust have to learn to deal with it. Everything happens for a reason, whether you think it's beneficial for you or not.
 
- unemployed the whole yr
mad.gif

- lost my brother

- passed up on some box (heard it was good too)
 
- New coach ruined my senior year. I went from starting games my junior year in to playing about 5 minutes a game this year in a less competitive league.
- I haven't made any friends at school.
- I didn't get tickets to tonight's Oregon vs. Oregon State game so I'm watching it with random girls in my hall who know nothing about footballand won't shut the hell up.

More to come possibly....

- Got almost 0 play from the ladies

- Got jumped in Minneapolis and my buddy got stomped hard

- Came out of the summer $700 deep in credit card debt with no cash flow in sight

- Wasted an incredible amount of $$$ on weed, again


... and the POSITIVES?

Had the best time of my life this summer, living in Minneapolis and meeting sports superstars through my internship with Rivals.com. Also, as bad as myacademic situation is, I'll be graduating in 3 semesters and I'll have a nice body of work to impress any employer

Turn that last one into a W my man, if you know what I mean
 
-unemployed the entire year
-summer classes could potentially make me lose my scholarship (pending grades this fall)
-lost out on the one and pretty much gave up on females
-cousin got convicted of killing her kids
smh.gif

-family is starting to drift apart
 
Besides the loss of Friends and family members....Every "L" can be looked at as a Potential "W" in the future....

-Lost your Job? Bounce back and find a better one "W"
-Lost your Girl? Find a better one (There are Billions) "W"
-Wasted a lot of money on Weed? Realize you have to quit Smoking...its better for your health "W"
-Dont know how to spell "Touche"?...Pick up A Websters "W"

For those of you with Academic Problems....Look at it as a set back...Not a "L".
 
- Got laid off from my good paying/good hours job
- Got into a wreck right before i got laid off
- Friend shot himself in the head with a shotgun over a girl
- Friend got life in prison for capitol murder
- Grandma died
- Lost my full coverage insurance when i got laid off
 
- I joined Twitter. As if NT didn't consume enough of my time, Twitter consumed whatever other time I had remaining.
