What's the best thing you've ever done?

[Guest]

turning down all the other guys around here to be in a long distance relationship.

My best personal achievement was getting my life back together after I initially dropped out of college. Right out of high school, I went into a four year program that I clearly was not mentally ready for. After a semester and a half I dropped out and ended up moving out on my own. I spent a year and a half living paycheck to paycheck, and ultimately knew I needed to get back into school. Swallowing my pride, I got permission from my parents to move back in with them under the condition that I stay in school. I enrolled in a local community college as a part time student, and two years later I have my AS in criminology, I'm working towards my BS, I've got a salaried job in a field I enjoy working in, and I'm once again living on my own...the right way.

The best thing I've ever done was when I went to London.

 

Not only was it an awesome trip in and of itself (first out of the country), I also met up with my friend from online there.

 

After the initial awkwardness, we went out with his dad and my brother and we all got smashed.

 

Cheers, m8's.

I helped a family friend through PTSD after he came back from Afghanistan. I just wish he never went over in the first place, he hasn't been the same.

Hmm.....golly, I could have a list of things.....um..

 

Okay I would say Getting Eagle Scout, Drivers License (Third times a charm!) and Becoming a Brony!  That's pretty much it y'all!

Being there for my ex when no one else could.
She told me many times that I'd saved her life, and I'd like to think that, in a way, she certainly saved mine.

The best thing I did so far was finishing college, even if I selected a major that is seemingly unrelated to what I want to do in life. At least I now have more choices and the means to live a more independent life. 

 

Finding out about the MLP fandom was one of the best things to happen as well. I got to know very interesting and kind people as a result.

Probably... beating up the bullies throughout school and letting the victims of bullying know someone was there for them.

That has always what I've been most proud of in my life. Giving every kid a big brother to turn to.

 

I just wish I could of been there for everyone...

My first year in the U.S. Navy(I was 20), I was visiting Perth, Western Australia during the X-mas season.. Never imagined St. Nick waterskiing until then..

Anyway, I digress. Best Thing I have done EVER: Myself and 2 friends dressed up as St. Nick and his elves. We delivered toys & treats to a Children's Hospital for cancer patients.

 

To see the children's beautiful faces just light up, when Santa came to sit and just talk with them...Thinking back now...I could feel my heart fill with sunshine!

Getting a guitar. My parents tried to stop me from it with words like "You'll be bored with it in no time", but now I play it for 6 years and it's my favourite thing to do at home. And awesome way to relief stress. 

I dunno why they'd say that, learning the guitar, just like learning anything new, really stimulates the brain. I learned that from Nova, I play the guitar too....sort of, I know a few chords, the only problem is, my cerebral palsy gets in the way, its a very mild case luckily and if I work at it enough, I may be able to play better.  Haven't play it lately though, too busy with school and stuff and mostly because I forget.

I let my friends talk me into auditioning for a job I knew I had no chance of getting. I somehow got it though and it was the best moment of my entire life. I still get misty thinking about it.
