Default BB&V: My 2007 Graph (Photoshop experts get ready)

So back in December I used to play 2/4 on Full Tilt and was a decent winner. Then came January, starting new years day i went on the worst tilt of my life and tilted off 80% of my roll and had to cashout almost all of the remaining to pay bills. I then was stuck with following options:

A. Go find a [censored] low paying job and try and make ends meet until I can afford to go back and finish school.
B. Grind out the absolute bottom of the [censored] microstakes with my shattered confidence and try to basically re-learn poker.

Needless to say I went with option B.

Until March 15th I don't think my bankroll ever exceeded $800 as everytime i had a decent run I had to immediately cashout just so I didnt get evicted. This in itself was tilt inducing and pretty soon it was obvious that I couldnt sustain myself mentally to even beat [censored] 25nl.

On March 15th a friend of mine leant me some money for bills and $1750 to play 100nl. On the graph this is around hand 105k.

Its been two months since then and thanks to a lot of hard work, and some good coaching I'm now a successful 2/4 and 3/6 player.

Beat: Tilted off bankroll and had to grind micros for months.
Beat: 278k hands for $10k + $7.5k in rakeback.
Brag: Works out to around $31.47/hr...[censored] "REAL jobs."
Brag: Bankroll now at around 29k.
