My Life Rocks

[Et3rnalLegend64]

Well, I'm making something of it. Dropped out of school, went into a "my life is over" phase for a year or two, how ever many thousands of dollars to pay off, and all that jazz.

My uncle in Jersey has lots of connections because he has to be the friendliest guy on the planet when he wants to be. I'm now a dealer at a casino. Not the most tasteful thing, but I have money and I'm paying off my loans at a decent pace. Bought myself all the Haruhi books that are translated to English so far, bought Disappearance on Blu-Ray, and I'm considering a Figma.
I still feel kinda embarrassed to have to admit what I do for work though. Society tells you that you have to go to school and all that to get anywhere at all. My family drilled that into me so hard is partially the reason that it killed me so much when I gave up on school. Now, I think I can live decently. It's not like I have a lot of wants. I go to work, read my books during break, come home, watch anime/play games/hang out. Half a paycheck goes towards loans once a month, the other paycheck gets banked and I spend a little every now and again.

ALSO, The Avengers movie is coming out soon!!!!!!!!!!!!! *is totally amped up about it*

This, just the other day I was like "shit that movie is going to out in less than three months".

Which is STILL too long.

I would ask for no one to mess this up by going on about how their life is nothing but misery and pain, but frankly I know the Escapist community far too well by now for that.

I'll listen to your request but I highly doubt this thread won't devolve into "I'd kill myself if I could find a convenient way"

While I wouldn't say my life necessarily "rocks", I may be on a bit of an upswing, I'm becoming more self-sufficient and reliable. I'm doing fairly well in college and slowly gaining more direction. I'm getting healthier and taking care of myself. My friends and I seem to be doing more interesting stuff, whenever we are out we seem to be the dudes everyone wants to be around, so I guess that's pretty cool. Things could be better but I'm feeling somewhat optimistic which is rare for me. Oh and enjoy your awesome life while you can, not to be a downer but you never know when shit will go bad so enjoy the moment.

Rocked the hell out of my exams, Seen my older brother for the first time in a few months, a blizzard hits us in the middle of a two week long absence of snow just in time for my birthday and got Kingdom of Amalur from my friend. It doesn't suck at all but this is really a coincidental perfect storm of fortune coming together for me today. Thanks for the thread man!

There isn't anything making me super-happy right now, and I still feel like I'm a long ways away from accomplishing any of my true goals. But there isn't anything wrong with it either. I've actually led a pretty relaxed, care-free life. No financial troubles, no tragedies, not much drama to speak of. I count myself really lucky.

I'm alive and well, surrounded by people that I care about and care about me. I also have plenty of time for my nerdiness, and am working on research that could get published.


Life is good.

Haha, where do I start? I'm extremely lucky to be alive (and have the life I do) so I count every-day as a boon.

I'm having an awesome year-long holiday in America (sure there's work but after suffering through an English Uni, well it takes the piss a bit ) - Where I get to meet awesome people, travel to amazing places (Vegas is next wooooooooooo) and go to alright parties (england does parties better i'm afraid).

I've got an awesome Summer Holiday planned in which I'll cover the est Coast of the US and Canada, Scotland, England, France, Thailand and Cambodia - and this is hardly costing me a penny thanks to volunteer and sponsorship schemes.

I'm raping the academic scene with a pile of certificates and prizes for continually coming top of class and showing the Americans how it's done wit my 4.0GPA.

And finally I know I've got awesome friends and family back at home, so when the travelling (and the money) finally runs out I'll have somewhere to go.

Good fucking Times.
