thebrokenarrowsso i've been kinda reading over my dreamwidth entries from roughly a year ago through the entirety of this past year, and I've gotta say... this year has definitely been one of the most successful for me in a long time, if ever.
as far as material things goes, SO MANY electronic goodies that i've never had before this year:
- 3DS and a total of 8 or 9 titles, including Alpha Sapphire once it gets here~
- smartphone
- tablet
- gamecube/games
- secondary ps2
- ipod
- most likely before the year is out, a brand new laptop that i bought myself!! [not yet though!]
not counting the gamecube itself which was free and the tablet which was a gift, i bought and paid for ALL of these entirely on my own!!!
other stuff i accomplished:
- i need to move on for various reasons, but i'm FINALLY more or less respected at work for the first time ever
- every single bully at my workplace got fired or transferred, so I WIN BITCHES
- paid off my car!!!! never missed a single day or had a late payment. BOOYAH
- went on TWO vacations, to Atlanta [which seems to be becoming a yearly tradition! :D] and to the OBX
- added several monthly bills and expenses to my roster, told myself i could handle it, succeeded!
- amped up my pokemon collection considerably! got plush and old toys and such
- money has been tight at times but i have been more or less in the black all year!!! only had one prob in May
- FINALLY DOING REGULAR ART AGAIN HOLY CRAP REALLY IMPORTANT FOR MY HEALTH
- i'm only very slightly in better shape, but it's an improvement! getting stronger and healthier!
- this isn't really an accomplishment of mine, but BB IS FINALLY HOME FOR GOOD!!! and he got a job!
things i need to work on:
- saving money!!! important!!! gotta get dat apartment. for srs. and also laptop. that will help with EVERYTHING
- job hunting, finding a place with steady hours!
- enrolling back in school!
YEAH MAN. so despite some moments of trauma and bad times on occasion, i feel like this year has been EXTREMELY SUCCESSFUL. :D
-- later --
some past sleuthing: i was trying to figure out exactly when i had that subscription to nintendo power. just based on my recognition of various covers, along with memories associated with when i first was aware of my subscription. Christmas 2000, aka the n64 christmas, i got several back issues of NPower along with the Majora's Mask strategy guide, all packed into an ENORMOUS Lisa Frank zipper binder [it had Markie the Unicorn on it, i'm fairly sure anyway, and i loved it and i want it back omg. if it wasn't Markie then it was definitely the aliens.].
CAN YOU imagine me getting another one of those zipper binders and bringing it to SPCC for school???? CAUSE I SURE CAN. HELL YEAH lol. ugh i want to pass as a guy but i want to do and have SO MANY SILLY GIRLY THINGS AND IN FACT KNOWING I'M A GUY MAKES IT SO MUCH EASIER TO LET MYSELF WANT THESE THINGS! my gender identity is kinda weird like that. :P
so yeah. things and merchandise from roughly 1998-2002 that i adore beyond any logical reason:
- tamagotchi
- lisa frank
- pokemon of course
- dbz sometimes
- occasionally other anime like sailor moon
- school supplies from that era like yikes pencils
time to go toooo wooork! i have another day off tomorrow, yay! then four days in a row. so much easier than five days, somehow.
