2009 thus far

The SARS Volta · 08-25-2009, 03:56 PM

Has been a horrible fucking year overall--on a personal, national and global scale--from my perspective. A few friends and I were discussing, and it's been the most unfortunate (almost) 9 months I've seen in some time.
2008, on the other hand, was fabulous for me.

How has it been for everyone else?

I can say the exact same thing.

Give me another 3 months to decide.

bongobongo · 08-25-2009, 05:36 PM

its been a up and down roller coaster for me, overall however... a good year i have to admit, nothing but good things have happened to me and my life is very constructive!!! i wish it was thankgiving because i would definetly be thankful

I got in my first car accident in which I was run off the road and the other vehicle bailed, friends overdosing, betrayals leading to the end of friendships, family drama, difficulty finding employment despite qualifications, lack of quality herb in circulation...too many problems without solutions. Totally ready for 2010.

adventure · 08-25-2009, 06:24 PM

good year so far... got my stuff together and am going back to school full time.... living with the folk being 24 is a little tough but they are pretty cool! and saw some awesome shows this year!

José · 08-25-2009, 06:31 PM

Sars, that does sound like a tough year fo sho. Not that I can relate to any of those things, I have one suggestion. Don't wait for another solstice to start over.

Dr. ShinDig · 08-25-2009, 06:34 PM

I'm fortunate enough to say that this has been a good year for me, 2007 was my shit year.

sorry to hear that some of you are having a shit year, but next year keeps getting closer...

Qui-Bong Jinn · 08-25-2009, 06:36 PM

This year is going by extremely fast, thats all I gotta say about this year.

Dell Brandstone · 08-25-2009, 06:37 PM

it's not great, but certainly better than '06 was for me.

my_scatterheart · 08-25-2009, 06:43 PM

Every years another I didn't otherwise have.
Great.

toastyroach · 08-25-2009, 06:45 PM

take your positivity to someone who cares

myxomatosis · 08-25-2009, 06:48 PM

2009 has been rather good to me actually. First monthish was kinda shitty, but the rest has been gravy. Summer especially.

Dr. Nick Nasty · 08-25-2009, 07:00 PM

some amazing highs, some tough anxieties, but overall a great period of growth for me...as for the world, well--hope springs eternal right?

2009 has sucked so far.

will suck more when UC runs out in a few months.

_tyranT · 08-25-2009, 07:20 PM

not a good year and when UC runs out things will get worse.

so i will be forced to donate plasma to pay for car insurance.

notepad · 08-25-2009, 07:23 PM

and word on the donating plasma.. do that sometimes for some extra dough

although it has had its ups and downs, 2009 has been pretty solid for me. Started school full-time again(and made deans list niggers), made some new friends, got a lot of good stuff going on.

on the negative side, I found dope again earlier this summer, it's fucking hard trying to stay away from it, and got in trouble when visiting home(which was fucking stupid). but I did get a B+ in my summer class.

But so far, way better than 2008, in which one of my old friends died, i racked up 4 charges, did a fuckload of dope, lost a few jobs, blew all my money, not to mention a lot of other dumb shit that kind of put my advancement in "normal" life on hold.
