-got ALOT better at drifting and racing in LFS! (woohooo!)

And some other stuff that isn't very interesting
#2 - th84
I managed to put myself further into debt! woohoo!
I hovered, happily in the 'small red numbers' area od dept whilst paying my way to a championship win in my race series. I also continued to renovate my house (which is made harder as I'm trying to live it, trying to avoid spending money on it, and prefer working on the race car!).
Quote from th84 :I managed to put myself further into debt! woohoo!

Then we're two.
Found out I'm going to be a dad
Started a proper industry course in Games Programming, and through this realising that I might actually be able to make games for a living.
Got lots and lots of money from work because they utterly messed up the system that was meant to replace us meaning we had to stay on another 2 years.

2008 was a good year.
Quote from The Very End :Then we're two.

Three....

We should start a "I love the economy because it's harder to get out of debt" club.
#8 - Osco
met some nice people, made good friends, traveled a lot

and lost my job...
I bought LFS S2.
Lets see...

Became a youth cycling champion in Scotland for the second year running,

Got a girlfriend, got dumped 5 months after. I'm FREEEEE I CAN LOOK AT NAUGHTY LADIES NOW!

Rediscovered LFS, best move to date.

Went to France.

Failed to get stung by anything, hurt anything bigtime or break a bone. I've never broke a bone, which has surprised me.

Ran into a wall
Upgraded my pc a couple of times.
Got one year older.
Finished my wheel.

That's all. (all i can remember)
Hmmm... Got my car painted.

Join the club.

tbh I'm not for the whole 'live by day/month/year", I prefer to live day by day. Nothing special happened in any of the years I was alive, because I look back on my 'life', rather than the year itself, if you understand what I mean.
Well I can’t remember everything, but will give it a shot.
- Hacked a company and grabbed some personal information.
- Told the press about this vulnerability (Hit the news with my real name, so the company could track me.
Not really clever to provide my real name huh :P)
- Obviously the company did track me…..
…..
- The very same company offered me a job
- Made lots of money by running 3 jobs at the same time (who says young people are lazy now a days? )
- Bought a decent desktop.
- Went on holiday (Spain and Germany)
- Quit school (didn’t enjoy the classes) and started an IT course at University (still enjoying this course).
- Bought a laptop

I guess this pretty much sums it up. Overall quite a good year for me. Although, I also ran into some serious family trouble...
lets see what I accomplished in the year that was 2008

- failed 2 of my AS courses
- got hit by a car
- started browsing 4chan
- turned 18
- went to Ireland
- started to get a decent amount of cash tucked away
- perhaps the best thing to happen to me though in 2008 was meeting someone who had been out of my life for 15 years and who I didn't even know existed until this summer

still haven't got a girlfriend though...but I'm not too fussed

I wish I could go back to the debt that I had at your age.

Stay single for as long as you can.
Car and insurance - peugeot 306... handles rather well, and loves hand brake turns but 0-60 is measured in minutes

got into the gym - lost a stone in weight, all round rather healthier

then theirs other achievements that don't need to be mentioned
More debt but only because I changed vehicles.
Paid off much more school debt .
Lost 55 pounds. Took 8 months but did it.
Live on my own.
Got a new job.
Now inbetween jobs thanks to the auto sector tanking.

Got better in LFS. Starting to put pressure on guys that used to be faster than me by a whole lot.

nothing much. i did buy Dust To Glory the movie, and melted my parachute in my rocket i just got. I let my brother borrow my money, which he never payed me back, which i also could have used to buy a license, and i turned one more year older. yay for me. OH. i got an iPOD nano. I got one step closer to a learners permit, and I found out many things that might be important, or not important. I got better at LFS, and I'm starting to get close to 1:30 around Blackwood with the XRT (because I still use version X10). So, that was my good points, otherwise this year wasn't a whole lot exciting.
