It's really hard to remember that far back...

Let's see... It was not a great year for me. I remember that was around when I started to get depressed most of the time, around the time I was in my early teen years. It wasn't nearly as bad as 2018 was (seriously, 2018 was the worst year of my life), but it was still a rotten year I remember. Though I don't remember much else, other than it being bad.

Well, yeah I don't remember it being a great year for me. It was the start of a downturn for me emotionally. I had just started using forums back then. I was definitely beyond cringy to say the least also. I mean the absolute epitome of the cringe was 2012, but 2011 was still a cringe-fest if I remember right. 

 

But here I am with my OG avatar from 2013, so, maybe my cringelord past is having the last laugh.

Ha. Dumb posting is dumb. But Ah like playin' along.

Was great ponywise, but bad on other aspects. First time Mia cheated on me that summer, but I was having lots of fun with the oldfags after the massive pony banhammer from 4chan. Was super into reading fanfics and was helpin' with some editing for wandererd's The empty room (I still hold that fic dearly). Also started to work on some now-dead pony rpgs of mine. Had new friends at college and I used to get lost quite often at the big city I had moved in to study my degree. Used to hang a lot with my friend Ed. He used to struggle at college due money problems, so I used to pay breakfast for the both of us. Also used to image rp a lot with dirtybit and some other guys over iscribble. That year I met Michel, Alex and Juanito. Things were never the same after Michel died. Disregard the cheating from my ex, that must have been the best summer ever since I joined the fandom. Everypony was so friendly and there were lots and lots and lots of new fanmade content! From music to art, fanfic and lots of fun short videogames! I miss 2011. Things were so bright back then.

I had a fun 2011. I was 10 years old at the time, and I remember that’s the year my cousin got married and me and my immediate family were invited to the wedding.

What a great time to revive this

Lets see in 2011 I was in high school…um…yeah that’s about all I remember 

[DubWolf 18,486]

2011.

You know, senior year of high school was a good year. I liked it.

[ExplosionMare 21,349]

I think I was about 8 or 9 years old so I assume it was good.

Interesting with something to finally do, land a job at the end of the year

I don’t remember anything from 2011 at all. All I remember is that I went to kindergarten then.

[Raskolnikov 1,720]

I played Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Oblivion and Skyrim when the latter released that year.

The rest.. mmmmm!!! Who is to say....

I bet this is so nostalgic for some people.

I was in 11th grade at that time. My school is a private school so each year the juniors would go to a retreat up in the mountains. It was a fun experience. One of the best memory I have at youth. I didn’t get to experience a simple sleep over or hanging out with friends outside of school growing up. Just being away from home for a week, hanging out with the guys during our free time, hiking at night together…tasting that pure freedom of doing whatever we want…those were good times. 
 

There was a time we were hiking and saw one cabin. It was snowing so it was like from a horror film. I suggested the guys we should throw a snowball at the door. (My first thrill of fun of rebellion after such a long time) So the owner would think someone was knocking at their door .  The guys weren’t sure about it, so I went ahead, grab the snowball and threw at the door. Unfortunately the cabin was empty, but it was exciting moment.

Battlefield 3 came out which would inadvertently lead to me becoming a brony thanks to the Battlelog forums. Also Skyrim, but I didn’t play it until 2012.

2011 was an interesting year for me. I had graduated from Grad school in May of 2010. 

But I wouldn't really start my professional career in earnest until October of 2012. 

So I was kind of adrift. I also had a wife and kiddo at that time. 

I did everything from work at Michael's Cra(p)ft Store to operate a Spectometer in a Geochemical laboratory, even got co author on a scientific paper, not bad for a pony with two degrees in fine art...but the instability was not good. Bills don't wait while one dally's around.
