Life changing experiences

[Jenou]

good or bad, what is an experience you had that changed your life?

For me, it was smoking weed that was laced with salvia. I've yet to smoke another bowl since then.

The internet.

lmao weak ass bitch. Salvia isn't even that strong!

And what drugs have YOU tried, little girl?

[MikeRomanul]

I'd hate to be the one with the cliche (I don't know how to make an accent with American keyboards) but I'd have to say the internet.

You learn so much from it. Newspaper articles, the general public, that's all nice and well, but the internet has been a save haven for free speech.

Funny Junk, E-baums, Newgrounds, those are all the sites that I've literally been brought up with.

Now that I look back, that was a terrible childhood.

Skydiving.

It was boring and nauseating, and made me realize that contemporary ideas of what was thrilling did not match with my ideas. I now need to endanger my life to have thrill-type fun.

Me. no ropes, no safety, 30foot drop onto more rocks.

That doesnt look like fun at all.

I don't know if this counts, but I would have to say my life changing experience/moment was when I learned that my dad died by 2 shotgun shells from his best friend. I'm actually a very normal person.

It's not for everyone. If it was, population wouldn't be a problem. I almost died trying to get up on ledge because of how it's slanted. I kept sliding down, and ended up having to rest by jamming my arm into a crack, while my other arm got feeling back.

The satisfaction comes from the knowledge that you could have died, but didn't. It's the most amazing feeling of victory, gratefulness, power, and euphoria, and I wish you all could feel it.

I couldn't grip anything for an hour afterward though. :(

Mine thus far would be my motorcycle accident. I was on my way to work in the evening about 6 oclock, was dark already. A lady jumped a stop street right in front of me, telling me later she thought it was a 4 way stop.

My first thought was what the fck is this driver doing, then i realized the car was still going and had no intention of stopping. I could do nothing to get out of the predicament. Everything slowed down and i felt the car connect with the side of my bike and unfortunately my foot. Pure shock followed as the bike whiplashed me into the air and sent me greeting about 10 meters of road with my arm and shoulder. Thankfully i had a leather jacket on otherwise i'd still be transferring skin from my ass to my arm. Suddenly all the pain i could bear shot into my leg and i thought it was mangled for sure. About 15 minutes later the ambulance medics arrived and made it all better with some painkillers. Luckily for me my ankle was only severely sprained and my big toe fractured with a nasty cut underneath my foot. Couple weeks later i could walk without crutches again.

But what that accident did was force me to look at my life and where i was heading (since i ironically did not get the whole flashback of my life, instead nothing was what i saw, emptiness). I don't blame the driver. Since then i've been looking at life from every angle i can manage, trying to find the right one.

I was about eleven when I discovered that mainstream opinions aren't always necessarily my opinions.

[Dezimo]

[Phobotech]

Moving out with my girlfriend-at-the-time to McKinney! Yay! Fresh beginnings! Out on our own! Awesome!...Then 4 months later she moves back home, leaving me stranded in apartments I can't afford...

...from October to mid-January....in the fucking cold. I learned alot...A LOT in that time.

...At least the internet was free...Heh, you guys were the only thing that helped me grasp what I consider sanity...kinda.

[Asswipe3210]

littering, and smoking the reefer.

[K-RadPie]

Taking a shitload of Benadryl.

[TJoyal]

The time I opened up ym medicine cabinet and found Vagisil

[gayhomo]

And what drugs have YOU tried, little girl?

...Cocane, LSD, XTC.

[JohnnyWang]

Probably seeing the G8 riots on tv, or going to my first punk gig, and my first mosh pit.

Becoming an aunt.

It's an amazing feeling to want the most for someone who isn't even yours.

Yeah, the feeling is great, but it also made me feel more lonely.

I would say my life changing experience with one word: Love.

[Lost-Chances]

St-Patricks Day when I got insanely drunk about 2-3 years ago. Never again will I senselessly drink way too much.

Eh, New Year 2002. Drunkest I've ever been. I think. Vomited over shitloads of priceless CDs and fell onto them. BAD! BAD ALLAN!

[Zookman22]
