What the Future Holds…

Well, on December 27 of this year, I’ll be turning 19. 19…. Looking back, only a few things stick out in my mind, which leaves me with a bleak, if not downright pessimistic view of the future.
So here’s a list of things I remember, in no particular order:

  • Meeting my “best friend” Jessica through AOL back in ‘96 or ‘97 or sometime around the.
  • Meeting Natalie back in the day somewhere on AOL as well.
  • Getting to “second and third base” with someone about a year ago.
  • My first “girlfriend,” Samantha, and the trouble she caused with my best guy friend at the time. We no longer talk.
  • I can’t even remember when Johan and I started hanging out, but I didn’t forget you, kid. Yes, I called you kid. You may be taller, but I’m older, fucker.
  • Learning the “pick-me-up” to any problem: masturbation.
  • My first programming course… Visual Basic in the Bergen Academies.
  • Almost beating those Bergen people at the Z100 radio contest with my voter bots.
  • Losing my virginity. Oops, that didn’t happen.
  • Getting my first car: the BMW.
  • Getting hit by a fuckin’ suburban the day before I was supposed to get the fuckin’ car. (Priceless)
  • Getting accepted to RIT.
  • Meeting Joanna…
  • Falling “in love” with various girls just to realize that: a) I have no chance or b)I was being a moron. (Don’t ask.)

    That is the extent of all the *important* (and positive, mostly) shit in my life that I remember. Notice nothing includes my family. Sorry, but it’s the truth. Well yeah, my future to me seems like it’s going to suck… I’m gunna end up with some stupid job where I’ll work my ass off, be underpaid/overworked, lonely, with an occasional fling here and there and die alone (and a virgin, according to the stats on this poll. Thanks assholes. Hah.)

    On a positive note, there’s a wishlist link on the left. You buying me something does not mean I’ll ever buy you anything, so don’t expect anything in return, except my gratitude. [dead links removed]
