This journal has existed for over a decade
In July of 2002, Stormy of the Gryphon's Guild sent me a livejournal invite.
Ten years later, its interesting looking back on how things have changed over time... and how things have not. I'm still spending hours and hours on IRC, but with different people. I've graduated from high school, graduated from college, had my first real job, and had a second job.
That's right, I don't work at Hewlett Packard for Lionbridge anymore. Today I work for Energ2, as a quality control technician in their first factory.
My best friends now are Carl, Alex, and Bribri - two familiar names, one that only popped up a couple years ago but is very important to me now.
Overall, I'm a pretty okay person emotionally. But, I think I could be better. Not better emotionally, though that as well; better as a person in general. I long have had great aspirations, but what have I done to achieve them? Little. Too little. But perhaps that will change soon.
I spent the last week working on a project. I'm not sure if it is a good idea or a bad one at this point. But I sense opportunity. I sense change in the winds, and I know what the future holds. But can I ride those winds better than anyone else? Am I sure enough of myself, am I confident enough in my competence, to take such a risk?
We shall see.
