But with things like this we can relate to eachother based on other things too, like real world problems and life.I want to respond to just about everyone. But i cant, lots of you guys commented. For those that are doing good, Great. Keep it up you're an inspiration to all of us. To those that are having a bad run of luck. Well, all i can tell you is to do what I do.Instead of dwelling on the here and now, look toward the future. Your current problems are only steps and the future is at the top, climb over them one by one and eventually they will be behind and below you.I should chime in with the other aspects of my life too.Things arent all bad. Yea i've been kicked in the jewles a few times in the past month, loosing my luggage, the ticket, spending more on my laptop then i originally planned ^_^, the Gameday not coming together as easily as i hoped it would.But other then that life is overall, good. A bit over a month ago I moved into my own apartment with my Uncle. We split a 1 bedroom apt together. I renovated the livingroom into a bedroom so its pretty spacious. I have a full time job and come Sept 3rd will be back in college for my 3rd year and a 14 credit semester. (time to catch up, i've been slacking, i may as well still be a freshman.)My parents (more my mom, but my dad too in a few ways), as much as I do hate them at times, are owed a bit more appreciation then I grant them. My mom not only covers half of my portion of the rent, (so long as i'm a full time college student), but also pays for said tuition to college! I'm really lucky in that aspect. At the same time I'm working 40 hours a week to cover the other half of the rent, and bills...which is still hard to cover. Living expenses in NYC are friggin extreme!I have a girlfriend, finally. Though due to our work schedules I havnt seen her in almost 2 weeks. And she's not a gamer, but hell we cant all get what we want! I work 7 days a week till midnight, she works till 6pm and the days she's had off recently were buzy with family stuff and the result of the blackout, etc etc.Hopefully that situation will change soon, one way or another. I'm supposed to get a new work schedule today or tommorw switching me to 5 days.When my uncle doesnt need his car I get to drive it around. So thats good. (thats how i got that parking ticket) and there is always the need to pay for gas, thats bad, but at least nyc gas prices are pretty cheep compared to the rest of the world, and states.So on the up and up, life i'd have to say is good. A few kicks to the nuts or head wont get or keep me down. I've had and been through worse!Carry on friends, Carry on.P.S. This thread has given me an idea for a new photo album. I wonder what you'll all think.</blockquote>
