One Year Ago...

One year ago I was an extreme fundamentalist Christian. After studying Biology extensively, I now know how life actually works, how it evolved, which gave me a much, MUCH, higher understanding and appreciation of life.

One year ago I completely revolved my life around getting stoned. Now I realize that marijuana is a beautiful plant that is to be used, not abused.

One year ago I was an addict of video games. Now that I am free I am working on my muscle tone for summer (which is coming along quite nice actually if I say so myself)

One year ago I could not chug beer if my life depended on it. Now I fucking dominate the beer bong :thumbsup:

I ask you friends, how much have you changed in one humble year?

One year ago, I was longing for a lost lover..permanently separated from him. I can now love, without losing myself.

One year ago, I was confused and depressed; I also abused the beautiful Mary Jane. I now adore her and treat her with the utter most respect.

One year ago, I was an addict. I abused many types of plants, pills and powders. I can now party like a rock star without becoming dependent.

One year ago, I had no idea who I was. I now have a much better understanding of myself and the people in my life.

One year ago I was a normal Skink,,,I am now a Cone...

One year ago, I was cancer-free.

One year ago, I was an asshole, thinking I was on top of the world

One year ago, I was in a psychedelic haze

One year ago, my mind was unbalanced

One year ago, I had no direction

One year ago was the best time of my life

But it doesn't beat today.

One year ago, I was struggling with my own issues, but I had fun.

This year I am still struggling even more with those same issues, but now love is added to the equation, and I'm afraid of how I'm going to turn out.

One year ago:

I was 230 pounds, I was having court dates and I was threatened again to be put back in juvie, I didn't think me and John would last, I finally fell in love with John, I picked up a bass for the first time, I began my intense obsession with Maynard, I watched Apocalypse Now for the first time, and finally John purposed.

Apocalypse Now is an awesome movie, I've watched the original and Redux versions... The beginning just kills me...

I love the part where The Doors-the end comes on at the end and the guy just goes fucking crazy! Ugh, my mouth just opened and ive been in love with that song and that movie since! And the playboy part cracks me up too. Kilgore is pretty freakin hot too.

One year ago I was in college..... now I dropped out because I couldn't handle being in shitloads of pain during class and keeping up in work.

One year ago I was a skinny pipsqueek...... now I've perfectly figured out the art of excercise and have some pretty good muscle.

One year ago I took meditation seriously and did it almost daily..... only now have I been getting back into it.

One year ago I loved playing videogames...... I love playing Elder Scrolls: Oblivion now, really as a way to relax, but that's about it.

One year ago I had never had an intimate relationship........ maybe better luck next year :(

One year ago I smoked weed all the time........ now, I'll touch it maybe 2x a month (seems that it doesn't feel shitty if I keep it to once a week max., but I don't even do it that much).

One year ago pain was a burden on my life....... now it smothers my life, and every so often pushes my sanity to the breaking point.



wow, I've gone places.

One year ago I realised just like the previous years since I met Mrs NCM how damn lucky I am.
Nothings changed
