Milestones

[Hey Joe]

We've all experienced those wonderful points in time where something happens that enables the next phase of life. Whether that be major life events such as graduating high school or the birth of a grandchild or something less poignant like mastering 'Free bird' in Guitar Hero (No, it's not a major life event, shut up) or getting a new console.

Personally, I've been granted Gonzo status and community pillar status within the space of a day.

So, my question is this. When did you last observe a milestone in your life? Did it make you reflect on the past and future or did you just go 'meh' and move on?

Approaching, then hitting 30. Along with boredom made be decide that sitting around on my meth script & shooting up all the time that I wasn't working in my dead end job really had to be stopped if I was ever going to do anthing useful in life.
So I quit my job and got one that would fit in with doing a part time masters degree, started the degree, switched over to subutex and cut back severaly on the jabs. Should be off my script at the end of this month.
So all in all, last milestone, yes fairly significant.

I bought and played Sins of a Solar Empire. Changed my life.

...Damn, tough act to follow...

Ackward question, I didn't thoroughly understand that did you just say you shoot Meth?

I graduated from college with a Bachelors in Radio and Television Broadcasting recently. Thats my milestone I suppose. I won't consider myself an adult until I get a real job and pay taxes though, and finding employment is proving to be...troublesome.

Not that awkward, I wouldn't have posted if I was that bothered. Sorry, I wasn't very clear to people who aren't aquainted with that sort of thing.
Methadone prescription. Shooting the obvious thing for someone with a meth script.

Well, a couple weeks ago I passed Ouendan 2.......I consider that a pretty awesome milestone. Of course, it came at the expense of about 300 hand cramps from holding that DAMN stylus for so long...
