Well, i was definitely merrier back then than i am now, but i was also dumber and more emotionally unstable (not emo you faeg, just really ill-tempered), letting minor criticism get to me pretty badly. After which i switched over to the "LETS SEE YOU DO BETTER" kind of behaviour.
*Facepalm*
Thinking back isn't always as good as some people claim it to be. I'm still somewhat unstable, but not as much as before. =P
