New Calendar Year
Jan. 1st, 2008 01:07 amWell, let's see. What did I get accomplished this last year?
I graduated. With honors, which given my past record with grades is not nothing.
. . .
Sad to say, that's it.
I didn't finish NaNo, I didn't find a job, I haven't established credit, I haven't gotten a love life, I haven't lost any weight (gained some, due to my slug lifestyle, but which I don't really care about right now).
I also didn't lose my mother or my father, or my mind. I guess I'll call it a wash.
But for the sake of the gods, can I please get off my ass and do something different with this year? Anything, really.
For the record, I'd like to accomplish at least one of these things in the next year:
1. Finish a gods-be-damned novel (that's not fanfiction)
2. Take a trip without my parents
3. Get a job
4. Establish some positive credit
5. Go back to school (?!...I said different!)
6. *looks around* Um...clean my room, at least enough that I have room to work out...
******
In other, really-depressing-to-me news, due to my father's work contacts, I found out that a guy I went to school with since kindergarten and who I hated and who dropped out of fucking high school, has bought a house. Great. As if I didn't feel like enough of a loser, this asshole has an entire house. I'm not doing my karma any favors, but when it does make me feel like a cliche basement dweller, I like to think about him defaulting on his mortgage payments and his credit being ruined forever.
I'm not going to get all maudlin, and in fact, I think I'll end this post now, because the more I think about how little I've done with my life so far I want to bash my head into the wall.
