What were you like 5 years ago?

[twilight24 321]

I was shy, awkward, and sad.. Now I'm more happy, living ea h day, and trying to be a good person

[Hashi 323]

Oh I was annoying as hell, and had no friends

[Envy 5,998]

Actually I don't know that I've changed all of that much since then. One difference would be that I called myself a Christian, but... That 'belief' was a mechanism of my mind due only to not being able to take what was going on in my life, sustaining denial. It was never a real belief, thus why it was knocked back down the instant I actually immersed myself back in atheism again.

 

Still I wish it hadn't been there... Reality can not be changed. Although I think by five years ago it was already too late, a couple of years into the 'belief', so no point in dwelling on it in terms of five years ago. And really, as a 'Christian', I wasn't different. I still followed my own morality.

 

Another change is that I fully believed in achieving my dreams, whereas now I've given up. It's a natural progression. I took too long, I no longer feel good enough anymore.

5 years ago I was an awkward 13 year old trying to make sense with her life. If you met me, I would be shy to the point of crying. I practically had no friends and I spent most of my days at home feeling bad for myself and my pathetic excuse for a life. When highschool rolled around, man I was a changed person. I learned to cop with my problems with the help of God and became a much more social person. To this day, I am a happy go lucky, bubbly 18 year old who's looking forward to college and the future. I thank God everyday for being where I am today.(:

I was a chubby slob 5 years ago, who just sat on his behind all day and didn't care about his appearance.

 

Never more.

Funfact: Every 7 years, all of the atoms in your body are replaced. 

 

Not really sure how I was...I was like 11 years old, was a pretty dumb kid really. I got myself into lots of trouble.

i was working at a job i hated with no life!

[Tom Snyder 4,111]

I am still the same as i am now 5 years ago, but i learned a lot since then.

[SparklingSwirls 21,261]

I don't remember what I was like five years ago, since I don't have a good long-term memory. I guess I was just the same as I am now . I wasn't involved on any internet forums though, and I would have had more real life friends since we wouldn't have fallen apart yet.

[~Flash Brush~ 313]

Well, way back when, I was just an eight year old. I was a cute as can be, this was when I still didn't know much about the world, and math. Every winter in my class we would drink hot chocolate. It was so good. I don't remember much because my childhood was weird + I have memory loss.

[Twisted Cyclone 🚓 6,221]

5 years ago, I was a really depressed child. Until I moved from Indiana to Florida. I still thank my parents for that move because if I stayed there, hard tellin how my life would be now.

[Ice Fox 1,145]

I was a total brat 5 years ago. Thankfully I have now learned to grow up.

 

Can I think about something else now?

[Henny Penny Benny 936]

I was just getting ready to graduate high school. A whole lot less mature back then, too. Never heard of MLP. Still in a Charismatic church, rather than the Reformed Presbyterian church I go to now. I thought for sure I was gonna go into theatre in college, but that didn't happen.

 

Wow. I've really come a long way!

[_GLaDOS_ 102]

Hard to remember. Well, I was a normal 15 year old who kept dumping boys because I wanted to stay a virgin, because I didn't want to go through teenage pregnancy. I also was a huge video game nerd, and was dreaming to move to Japan some day because of the low crime rate.

I was a lively 14 year old who had a ton of energy, and was still trapped under the spell of the streets. I was also one of those COD kids.

 

Now as I near 20 years old, I am depressed and angry at the world, with less energy, but I have matured very well.

[Ze Ubermage 226]

To be quite honest I was a self minded person that barely listened to his friends. But I realized that I needed to be a better person. So over the years I've gotten to be a good person to other people. ^^

[VinylWubs 1,249]

a very selfish, shy and happy person I was I loved my school and I didn't want to leave

[Scootaloodle 1,621]

I think 5 years ago I was probably not much different to now really.

 

Although I don’t remember anything specific about that time

[DATA EXPUNGED 324]

I was an annoying 15 year old who would spend his days (when I wasn't studying) playing Runescape, trolling on 4chan, and Playing D&D with my friends.

[TheJLeeTeam 914]

Wow 5 years ago. I can't believe it's been so long since 2010. Back in 2010 I had my new DSi, I was playing games like Pokémon HeartGold and Dragon Quest IX, I was still very big into Nickelodeon and I was watching the first episodes of Adventure Time. Also in 2010, Family Guy appealed to me way more than it does now.

 

And in the fall I heard discussions at school about this new animated show. You may be thinking it was MLP: FiM but no actually it was Fish Hooks. That show never appealed to me, and I found it bland like a cheap flash show from Canada. 

 

Oh and also in Fall I ordered the japanese version of Pokémon White before it came out in America because I was so anxious to play it.

 

I was trying to be mature but I was still kind of not.

I was a Neopet-obsessed piece of trash and that's as much as I'm willing to say 

[Guest]

I was in my first year of uni... I had red emo hair and I wore skinny black and grey clothes with studs and spikes. I was rather messed up at that time and desperately trying to find my feet away from my (then) turbulent household.

[Horse 63]

Five years ago, was an awkward 12 year old in 6th grade.  Now that I think about it, I must have been just starting the first track season of my life.  Wow.  Running has greatly influenced who I am.  I have never been the fastest, but running has taught me lessons and strategies that have become a large part of what makes me myself.  Running has given me audacity, pride, humility, integrity, empathy, and so much more.

[CheeryFox 23,811]

Umm...I guess the same. More or less. 

[Poetic Stone 1,040]

II fell like I have grown in the last five years I would say I learned quiet a bit. So I love learning, and always trying to be a better pony.
