I don't remember 2016. I don't remember 2017 either. My life is a pretty sub-par stagnation, ,so I don't expect much of next year, other than getting considerably worse if I come back from Germany since I'm stuck in Bumblefuck, Pa where we don't even have cell service, let alone anywhere nearby to work that'll be worth me having gone to college. But I get the feeling that my mom will push me into some low end, shitty job because (I'm assuming, unless it's a generational thing) of IQ difference and she doesn't understand the world we live in now, which was pretty evident when I tried explaining what I wanted to do and she responded with I should be a welder. So I guess yeah 2018 will be the test if I make it to 2019

So I guess yeah 2018 will be the test if I make it to 2019I feel like a very large amount of people on earth are living asleep, unaware that they have the capability to completely change their life towards the direction they want it to go. They believe that the world acts upon them, their parents, their superiors, their situations or limitations, all are throwing them around and they have no say in what happens. Like a tiny boat in a big ocean. They’re just acted upon in life and it leads to depression/hopelessness/apathy which they keep all the way until they die. But it’s not like that really, you can act your will upon the world and adapt to situations in the direction you wanna go. You truly can do whatever you want to do, and if you never give up you either make the life you want to live or you die, but even then you’ll be closer and probably happier than if you resigned to a life you didn’t choose. The tricky part is having the grit and tenacity to stick to it no matter what, and overcome your bad habits that keep you from getting there. Srsssssss

If something doesn't happen with Berlin, that's it, game over man. Any real job is at least 2 hours away. But besides that, college was a complete waste, so I'm screwed there too.

Even thinking “yeah but there’s so much bad stuff in my life” adds to it. Start focusing on the good and have lots of gratitude for what you do have and i guarantee you will start seeing things differently. It won’t be easy at first but it needs to become a habit, much like your negative thinking is a habit right now
Can’t wait to see what 2018 has in store for me
