- Finally settled a very nasty and expensive lawsuit filed against me, my dad and two others.

- Epson Philippines finally decided to re-evaluate my appeal for re-accreditation.

- Successfully entered Real-Estate market by acquiring several prime lots at dirt cheap prices.

- Newly formed Ad-Truck company is now profitable after 3 months in red.

- Got laid, had daughter, got married (in that order)

- Acquired 4 steel barges to be sold for scrap.

- Moved my office to a bigger, better location in Makati.

- Not quite but I am very close to my target Php50 Million quota this year. (Remember: I promised to give $500 to random tripcode users if I reached my quota)

- Took part on three VN's released this year.

- Brought my 6th car. Sold my oldest one.

- Opened 2 more branches for my retail operations.

1) Finally compete in Nationals, swim like shit in front of all my family that finally showed up to watch a me in a collegiate meet.

2) Graduated from college with a degree in economics and no desire to work for the government, economy continues to worsen and people start wising up to the fact that most of what economists have to say is complete bullshit.

3) Find out that the family is moving to a college town, don't find anything better than minimum wage. Also, lose most of the better opportunities to undergrads despite having a far more flexible schedule and experience.

4) Realize that any and all renovations I've done on our old house were pretty much pointless as my mother and sister rip out all of the carpet and paint the walls a different color shortly after I went back to college for the summer to finish off 1 bullshit class that my foreign teacher failed to inform me about having to take due to her looking at the wrong catalog year for my degree.

At least things are looking better, might be getting a position in a company that involves itself helping people invest in other people's life insurance policies.

neet for 2 years here almost to the day (when i got my associate's degree and realized even if i completed my bachelor's that it ultimately wouldn't do shit for me without years of experience in the field anyway). all my income has been from odd jobs that my friends were nice enough to set me up with. i had no luck finding a job and gave up looking for work last year after about 6 months. i could have worked retail/grocery for like 8 bucks an hour but that aint enough to move me out of my parents' i would still need a better job, so its like what's the point i'd spend all day being stressed out and making chump change that can't do anything for me so i'd rather spend my time playing vns and browsing /jp/

what a fast year it's been though, all i've really improved on is guitar playing and japanese language. well something is better than nothing i guess
