Started the year with a gf and no job. But parents were OK with me having no job because it was my last semester, I had money in the bank, and I wound up making Dean's List.

Jan. 8th (B-day)- Gf and I break up with Tornado Ashley destroying my room. Literally took me 2-3 hours to clean it all up, including computers and a tv.
Jan.29th- Got punched by a kid I was trying to help not get his ass kicked. I defended myself.
Feb.-Got summoned for assault for said event.
April-Charged dropped, bank account lightened.
May-Graduated, met a great girl. Started to fall hard.
June-Long story, hard to explain. No more girl. Got a job at Friday's
August-Job with the Hudson Bergen Light Rail as a train operator. No more Friday's.
Sept.-present-Work too much, at the worst times of day, for not enough money to give up my life.
Dec.-Got a job with Aflac and spoke with the higher ups at my current to see about an office job.

So currently I technically have 2 jobs, no girl or prospects, paying off debt rapidly, and living with my parents. Not bad, but the next few months should get better very fast.
 
im still stuck with mine..
shes only 17 and her moms kicking her out of her house, so i have to let her stay with me.
 
January: Got a sort-of-promotion with a raise, the job isn't easy by any means but I've worked far harder for far less and I'm thankful.

February through December: .....

2009: Profit!
 
Not sure on the months but theyre in order.

Got awesome hours at work.
Me and Kristin get a new place.
Lose my job.
Get into trouble.
Kristin kicks me out.
Got out of trouble.
Start drinking a lot.

So I end the year, jobless, drunk, and lonely. Gotta clean my shit up in 09'
