Things that have changed my life in the last 12 months
-
2012 has been a pretty bad year for me. Injuries, cancer and a miscarriage. Here's hoping 2013 is a lucky 13 for me.
Wishing you and your Family all the best. 5+ years ago within few months i got divorced, lost my father in a deadly accident and got the news of an illness myself, which i got thankfully under control. Take all the time you need mr bagley. I hope my words may give you a bit of faith and hope. Best wishes for a prosperous 13

on this very damn day, my life changed. getting my hands on my first piece of iron heart changed everything. (especially my bank account) right now, i don't go to the malls and shop for clothes and neither do i even have a 2nd look at any other brands. even for my gifts, my friends and gf would check out stuffs from iron heart.

Since we're coming up on the end of the year and I was feeling a bit introspective, I thought I'd resurrect this thread. So, let's hear it- what's changed your life this year?
-
IH and this forum, actually. I am happy to have "met" each of you.
Also, work has been going very well and I've never been happier professionally. And for that matter, in general.

thanks for bringing this thread back chris.
well, so what has changed my life the last 12 months…a shitload of things actually!
first thing first, after 6.5 years, i've finally finished university and became a bachelor of engineering with the main subject in construction engineering. took me 2.5 years longer than planed but it looks like that such things really doesn't matter anymore. it's all about knowing people and such these days i think! a friend of mine graduated 2 years ago and is still on the lookout for his first job (poor lad, sucks big time!)...
the next major thing that happened after graduation was that i broke up with the gf, after 7 years of being together and all that. had some beautfiul times together i have to admit. met her the first time when she was 16 (almost 17 then!) and me being 19! now, with her being 24 and me 26, we both just had different views of how we want to spend the next years of our lifes. she's into fashion and i wanted the best for my career, so for her berlin was/is the major goal and for me it is switzerland! beside the jobside, also feelings and such changed, so we actually parted on our both agreement, which i think was a good decision, since we still can talk to eachother without having some hard feelings or such...i still love her though and i guess, that after sharing 7 years of my life with one person, this is a normal thing to do/say, so yeah. she now has a new bf and i'm still on the hunt for fresh meat
after a good and a bad thing has happened now, it's time for another awesome thing to happen.so after graduation and after the break-up i actually chilled and didn't do a thing for 3months...just chilled at home and got my ass into paleo shape (thanks a ton again Jeff and Mega, for bringing Paleo into my world!). so paleo was another major thing that happened in the last 12 months. still at it (a bit), but really need to get my ass back on track.
after those 3months of being lazy, i finally got my ass up and wrote and sent two applications to two companies in switzerland (2 of the top 4 companies there is!)...after weeks of waiting i finally got word from both, that they both want me in their team. had two interviews and after that, i've decided to go with the "new" company (the other one i already had an internship two years ago!)...just felt right to me. the project manager was/is a great guy, the project itself sounded dope (i now can tell it really is!) and besides that, they also offered a tad more money and even had the better options along with the contract!
so after 6months into my first job now, i really can tell that i made the right move...happy as fuck i am. the project is running, the boss is more than happy with me, i'm more than satisfied with what i have achieved so far (always can do better though!) and all the folks working with me are awesome as well...one happy family we are! love it...with the job, also money came...while i was a student, i always had to see what to spend and when, what things to sell to pay for the next things and what not...now, knowing that you get paid every 4weeks, a lot of problems got solved, a lot of thoughts got taken care of and yeah, living life is just so fucking brilliant now (smiling from ear to ear almost every day
)...so i guess i got it all covered, those are the major 3-4 things that happened in my life the last 12 months i think...besides that, you guys are always a part of my life so the most of you already know about all the above. bear with me now
cheers bitches,

Yeah, I'm just trying to hold on until some relief presents itself. Surrounding myself with friends and staying busy seems to help. Tough times…..never understood depression until now.

Depression sucks, and people who've never suffered from it really don't get it.

Yeah, friends and busy is a good plan. Good luck with it all, mate. The clouds WILL clear away sometime.
