Since my birthday on Wednesday, things have begun to turn around. 22 is looking far more promising than 21 was. From September of last year began the worst year of my life so far, nothing ever bounced in my favor and it was starting to get downright depressing. I feel the tables have turned and I have a new outlook on things. One that could only have come from having misfortunes. So far in my life I have to say that bad experiences are the best character building tools.
