    I achieved most of the resolutions I made for last year (started working out, finally learned PHP, got a decent computer, got a decent job, between others), but during the year I set lots of new goals to myself like:

    -Get a driving license, I really need it but I didn't have the time or the money to get it yet...
    -Finish a PHP-based project that I started some months ago (I think this is gonna take lots of time but it's gonna worth it)
    -Take the college more seriously and actually approve something.
    -Start a console collection (wanted to do it for a long time but this is the first year that I think i'll be able to do it)
    -Bring my old website back Un life.
    -Complete most of this year's resolutions...

    Brought in the new year tripping on 2c-i and getting ready to snort a hydromorphone. I think I did this wrong.

    For 3. Keep current girl - you should probably change it to "Gain some self respect".

    1 - Smack Jamtex in the face for not knowing the difference between "then" and "than" ;)

    I tried 2CB a couple of times, fucking weird drug. Never tried snorting an opioid, but I imagine you had a good time. My new year's was pretty hectic too.

    Serious resolutions:

    1/ Get on with my PhD. I like what I'm doing and should work harder at it.
    2/ Make better use of my webhosting.
    3/ Cut back on how much I smoke. Maybe.

    Normally it's pretty fun, but I think it was a bad idea while I was tripping. While I was cutting it up I kept thinking, "What am I doing to my body?"

    It was all good fun, though. Fern Gully was a great movie for the occasion, too.

    I still need to get started on keeping a journal, though. I have another week before classes start, so I'm on lazy-mode.

    So long as you don't do it with any regularity, probably not much. Opiates are mostly dangerous once you start doing too much too often and the tolerance becomes difficult to calculate (it should go without saying that I've never been anywhere near this); that's the point at which overdose becomes a serious issue. Mixing a depressant with a hallucinogen is only likely to kill your trip, anyway - always worth keeping around a downer for if a trip goes bad. Certainly not as dangerous as combining an opiate (depressant) with alcohol (depressant). I might go out on a limb and assume you were doing this anyway, being new year's and all, but you're still here so you can't have gone too far wrong.

    It's kind of weird talking about drugs here, especially given how infrequently I take them these days. I have a horrible suspicion someone is about to tell us that we only do it to look cool.

    I haven't seen that movie since I was a kid, but for some reason it's been on my mind for the last few weeks. That bat used to crack me up.

    It was about 4:30AM by the time I took the hydromorphone, and it was mainly so that I could sleep. No alcohol for the night. We had vodka in the apartment, but no one wanted to take shots while tripping, especially since some us (not me) had nausea.

    The reason I was having those thoughts is because I put more pills up my nose than I should (obviously have to cut it up first). If I had a steady supply I would be flirting with an addiction, but I have enough self-control to stretch out my supply. I'm done once I take the rest of my percocets.

    The entire time we were watching the movie, everyone kept commenting on what a great villain the sludge guy was. Especially at the end when he turns into a giant fucking skeleton. That was so cool.

    e: done with the drug talk. I know most people here don't care for it.

    I found that in an Apogee game when I was a kid, Crystal Caves. My dad thought it was hilarious, the game looks like a bad acid trip.
