2008
2008 was a horrible year. I felt like I really accomplished nothing this year. Well that's not all true, I did finally get my ass on stage and start performing as Rocky but I feel like that was my only major accomplishment this year.
In 2007 I did so much, I refereed big pro wrestling matches, I traveled all over Northern California and Oregon to work wrestling shows and Rocky Horror, I finally moved out of my mom's place and into my own place (with a great roommate) in Concord, I made my wrestling in-ring debut and wrestled two matches. HELL, I REFEREED THE FUCKING COW PALACE! I did so much last year and this year, well this year, I can't even touch last year and it kills me.
2008 was a pure struggle for me all year long. I had 4 jobs in the year of 2008. 4 jobs! 3 were temp jobs but still, I've never worked so many different jobs in that short of a time frame. I pretty much went through all my money. I had to move back into my mom's place in Benicia to make the ends meet, I quit pro wrestling to concentrate on saving some money only to lose my job 5 days later. Hell I turned down a free fucking trip to Europe cause I wanted to work at my full time job so I can money, only to be laid off a few days after the offer. (That's really only half true, I also don't have a passport so I wouldn't have been able to have gone anyways but I did also turn it down to focus more on working and saving money.).
I just feel like I was a giant let down to myself in 2008. In 2007, I was all over the place and I loved it. In one week it was
Monday - Thursday: Work
Tuesday night/Thursday night: Wrestling Training
Friday: Fly to Oregon to do a wrestling show.
Saturday: Fly back to CA, then drive to Newman to do a wrestling, then drive to Oakland to do the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Sunday: Go to Modesto to a wrestling show
Monday-Friday: Work
Now it's....
Monday - Saturday: Hopefully working and making some bill money.
Saturday Night: Rocky Horror
Sunday - Saturday: Hopefully working and making some bill money.
And don't mistake that I'm complaining about Rocky Horror or anything. If anything Rocky Horror is helping me from going insane with nothing else to do as Rocky is pretty much my last escape away from the normal.
2008 was just pretty much shit with a few high points during the year here and there. 2008 was just a really bad year and I hoping I can change that with 2009 and the only way I can start to change that is if I can find full time work right away. That'd be the first step in making 2009 a way better year than this year was. I also have some other things I want to do in 2009 that'd make me feel a lot better about myself as well. Here goes nothing.
