I dunno, I try to keep negativity out of my life as much as possible so I'm never really down and never look back and think, man those times were hard.

Not to say I'm blessed or nowt, just over a year ago I had dropped out of my 2nd consecutive uni course, had just dumped my girlfriend, cut ties with a handful of friends, was lookign at the possibility of having a criminal record, had just been fired and generally gave my mum alot to worry about last summer.

Now I've got a brilliant job I actually look forward to going to, I've been told by several different people that I'm much nicer to be around since I've been single less aggresive n whatnot, plus all the fun that goes with being single, I'm doing a uni course I genuinely like and enjoy going to, I can appreciate the friends i still have even more, no police record I hit the gym hard after things started getting back on track and I'm in the best shape I've been in years amongst other things.

So it's a pretty dramatic change but I don't look back and think wow lasts ummer sucked balls because it didn't really. I think it all depends how you deal with and handle things. It's like gigs, if you never do a bad gig, the good ones are just good, if you have a horrible one, it makes all the good ones after even sweeter.

I just see it all as a learning experience.
