This is it, the year I finally get the hell outta the house. Something I've been wanting to do every since I fought my way out of my mother's womb. I'm going to finish up high school, turn 17 and enlist in the Air Force. New things will be experienced, will go places I haven't been and learn to do a job that pays 120k a year. The goal is to be a Air Traffic Controller: said to be one of the most stressful jobs in the world. But with the amount they pay, I think I can dig it.
My daily life will change dramatically. There will be no more refreshing news sites and forums all day. No more doing things at my own relaxed slow ass pace. No more watching endless amounts of downloaded shows hours on end, for the first year of the military anyway.
I have a set of goals once I have left the house. There isn't a if in meeting these goals, only a when. My first one is a goal of self discovery. That is, to know myself. To know: my weaknesses, what I like, what I dislike, what I love, what I loathe, what I can and cannot tolerate, what I enjoy, etc. This isn't something that happens in a day, a week or a year. It's something that takes a lifetime. And while I'm working toward that goal, I'll simultaneously work toward self improvement.
The next goal I have is to get a group of close friends. This too could take a long time. And while I have lots of good acquaintances (mostly on GBAtemp), I don't really have any close friends. Somehow I get the feeling that my best friends will be GBAtemp members though
The next step I take in life will be huge. I'm most definitely looking forward to it
Oh, and a bit about Wifi Night. I'm working on a project that should really give it a huge boost. Hopefully I'll finish it before I leave.
