2011-2012 Review

Dear God I'm pretty hungover, guys never play a game called Ring of Fire it's the devil. Alas hangover symptoms will pass with time as will the disappointing looks from friends, coworkers, and parents so chin up everybody. (Side note: SOBER apparently stands for: Son Of a Bitch Everything's Real)

2011 was a horrible horrible year let's start at the beginning:
January 2011: In my old university have realized for a month or so that I hate it and will never grow to like it
that takes us alllllll the way to like May
May: Lost my best friend doing exams at old uni
After exams: Near constant panic about transferring unis and getting the money for China
September: Got into new uni and got visa for China panicking about dying in China
November:....China -_-
December: This month actually was pretty good except for dealing with the psychological damage from China -_-
and now it's 2012 needless to say much like Adam Ferrara when the countdown started I was in the back yelling "HURRY UP"

This year seems like it's gonna be a good one it truly feels like a new start, even though I feel like shit right now I'm certain I'll look back on this with fond memories (I fucking hope I look back on this with fond memories) and after reading this quote:

"Drinking is an emotional thing. It joggles you out of everyday life, out of everything being the same. It yanks you out of your body and your mind and throws you against the wall. I have the feeling that drinking is a form of suicide where you're allowed to return to life and begin all over the next day. It's like killing yourself, and then you're reborn. I guess I've lived about ten or fifteen thousand lives now."    — Charles Bukowski (1920-1994).


It now seems really appropriate that I got drunk off my ass (see what I did there ^_~ fuck you conscious...) remember guys wisdom is the product of several mistakes...here's a few lessons learned in 2011:


1. Never tell a former bartender that you can out drink him
2. Never go to a university that has a 2 for 1 deal on degrees -_-
3. Never underestimate the importance of a block in any context
4. Don't do the beer bong
5. Murphy's Law is a thing...
6. When travelling to a foreign country for an extended period of time with 20 individuals you don't know very well make sure to get a roommate you trust...and preferably a roommate with a vagina...
7. Listen to Craig Ferguson...he's a smart guy
...
I can't remember the rest... BUT I LEARNED THEM DAMMIT


Lessons learned in 2012 thus far:
1. That third drink is ALWAYS a bad idea


And Many More To Come,
