とげとげタルめいろスーパードンキーコング2"

Welcome traveller. You have reached the checkpoint of the internet.
This is an age-old story beginning with taia777 in 2012, where people from all walks of life would comment about how their life is going. In 2020 that original video was removed. In that video's honour, I have kept both the original title and video, as we have all found the video recommended to us seemingly from nowhere, with a Japanese title and low-graphics thumbnail. Yet, out of curiosity, we elect to watch it and find a beautiful community of commenters
Join the taia777 sanctuary discord as well if you feel like it, it's a great place to hangout, talk, and vent. - / discord
The song is from Donkey Kong Country 2 on the SNES
Stickerbush Symphony (Brambles in the Breeze / Bramble Blast) are its names and it was composed by David Wise.
I own none of this, I do not claim any of this as mine, and I do not profit off of this.
All I wish to do is preserve a truly beautiful place of the internet, once desecrated by stingy copyright owners, who don't allow for joy if they don't profit off of it. I will be placing as many of the original comments from the original video as I can find, crediting them and honouring their memories and stories. Feel free to add your own.
Also thanks to Geauser. They made a website recreating the original video, any comments made can be found there.
internetcheckpoint.page/zK4TW... - check it out.
You can also find any other taia777 video here - hobune.stream/channels/taia777
thanks to a reddit user named rebane2001

Like I said in the description (which you should check for links to a save file of most old checkpoints and a discord server to just relax in) Join the taia777 sanctuary discord as well if you feel like it, it's a great place to hangout, talk, and vent. - discord.gg/GnsPXnU6dj I have stopped placing old checkpoints, due to the fact that you can find any placed yourself using the link below, but also to bring more spotlight to new entries. Another Edit - Thanks to the work of Geauser you can find any old comments by yourself using this website - internetcheckpoint.page/

i bet it feels very dark. but the only way to make it through is to shine a light. i bet she was an amazing soul, glowing brightly, warming those near her with her radiance. But now her light went dark, and i bet she wanted to see how much you could shine. Good luck on your adventures traveler!

all im saying, for me, music is where i draw inspiration from. when i get some good music going, everything is clear. do something that takes some stress off your mind and plan your thesis out while doing it. also make sure to change words like "isn't" to "is not" for those extra words :P

[@artemis2121]

Try practicing gratefulness : Every night, before going to bed, take time (abt 5min) to write down a couple of things you are grateful for, like "I'm grateful that pasta exist" or "I'm grateful to have that nice friend". I know it sounds a little funny, but doing that makes you feel in average happier. Of course don't take that as a miracle solution, but at least try it out ! It can't hurt xD. Have a great life !

[@JinxedPixie88]

That's okay. Sadness happens, much like a cloudy day. Just remember, the sun is still shining somewhere, even if it seems dark right now.

checkpoint : i survived my 5th attempt.

[@IBZogTheGreat]

I know I might not have an effect on your life but I gonna try anyways because nobody likes to hear a person killed themselves, I want you to know that suffering is a part of life but not a permanent part, the suffering always ends to reveal the greatest of happiness and knowing you lived through the suffering only makes it better, and if you end it all you’ll never get a chance to experience that greatness, and maybe the greatness ends and the suffering returns but nothing is permanent, no matter how long it last. From this greatness you’ll find friends and they can help the greatness last, and be there for you in the suffering to bring you back, and if me writing my heart out says anything even people who arn’t your friends will help if you need it. Nobody would want you gone and It would be just as painful for those around you if you end it, I know I would be sad. Ending it is never the solution, any problems you have can be solved in different ways to only lead to greatness. I really sincerely hope this helped, and have a wonderful life

[@SnannyYT]

Listen to the guy above me. Please.

[@thenuggywuggy8389]

if you survived your 5th attempt, you definitely should try being some sort of gambler dude. i wish i had your luck xD nah but fr tho. i may be just a random guy on the internet, but its nice knowing people are doing well. and you clearly are not doing well. ive never been through what you've been through, so i cant relate to your feelings properly. we cant even see eachothers faces, yet its clear to me that the person on the other side of my screen needs a bit of loving. I remember hearing how happiness is a universal feeling, but sadness comes in many forms. i couldnt imagine the many forms of sadness youve come across to reach 5 attempts. But, the only direction from rock bottom is up. Keep the ropes and knives down, and keep your chin up. If you got the energy to claw at yourself, then you got the energy to pump some iron. maybe take your emotions out on the ground. stomp around a bit and go for a jog. or maybe you wanna hit some stuff, learn a bit of boxing or judo. maybe you are a musical or artistic type of person. grab some paint and go crazy on your walls when you're mad! or maybe dont if you dont own the house, but you get what i mean. If you're feeling emotions so intense you're gonna break, break something. dont break yourself. if you break yourself, who is gonna live your life? who is gonna laugh for you? who is gonna love you? (yes i did just reference live, laugh, love (no i dont regret it)) anyways, hope things look up for you!

'No one is worthless'. Trick is to remember your value always.... because we forget and we make all this irrational thoughts in our head that sound so 'logical' or 'better for everyone'... when they are not.

@CamelGuy3 - My advice to you is to do something fun that'll also better you outside of classes. I think taking up physical exercise like martial arts, working out or a sport would be great for your confidence and you could meet some great people whilst doing it. Also do nofap, eat healthy. All of these will sky rocket your confidence, and you'll be able to stand up for yourself a lot more easily. You got this man, I believe you can defo turn things around, take it from me, I had a year where I felt friendless and hated life, followed by the best year of my life when I did nofap, meditation and living a healthy life style.

Tennessee was really nice too, very warm and humid, and I had such a great time with my fiance's grandparents, who already love me!

As someone who is married to a professor that advises pre-med students, keep in mind that med schools won't touch a transcript under 3.7GPA since it is so competitive. Have a back-up plan just in case, USE YOUR UNIVERSITY'S FREE TUTORING SERVICE, and don't keep retaking classes - med schools won't like that and you'll be wasting a lot of money. Of course, develop strong study habits if you haven't already - Chemistry, in particular, can NOT be memorized with flash cards; you need to be able to understand the concepts in order to pass. Best of luck!

I was scrolling and found this video wondering what it could be, and when I heard the music, that was all I needed to let my guard down and just cry everything I was feeling out.

I’m not the healthiest weight wise, but I’m down from where I was before and feeling the best I have been in a long time.
