This is definitely possible. I started playing around this time last year and was 4k in June.

Go to the KGS page click "Archives" at the bottom put your name into the graph search bit and your graph should come up. Right click and select Copy Image location. When you post it on the forum paste the location in place of the x in:

{img}x{/img}

*switch [-brackets for {-brackets.

Good luck with your goals.

in the End i won by 17.5 Moku but it was a Awesome game with some fighting in the midgame

After looking at your self, review you seem to be fairly aware of your play which is good. The cut at A (r13) probably would have worked earlier in the game. This weakness existed very early in the game.
Also, you did not have to lose the bottom right corner. that cost about 20-30 points.
