i feel like having another post kinda a 2009 in review etc....almost a decade in review i guess!
man, where do i start???? this year i have achieved the goals that i set out for myself:
-i graduated from pharmacy school
-i got a job in a hospital, my ideal first job in a completely random part of the country....kinda like a trial by fire....i mean i really have to be on point and keep my shit together to make sure my patients receive the best care that i am capable of giving them.....
- i have had one year of sobriety and been clean from drugs....though i have to say that i miss the weed that i smoked daily and E's that i took almost every weekend but not the booze, but i think that i would rather be giving the best care i can to my patients, and that they deserve that.....however, i might cut a loose a bit in April on my holiday with my poker team...we'll see, i think just this once might be fun, i mean i gotta have some fun from time to time, hehe....
- i now lift with some national and world class lifters and it is having a knock on effect on my lifting
-i am able to have a goal and stick to it.....this is something that has for some time eluded me
-i am now increasingly comfortable being who I am.....this is prolly the most important thing i have had happen....i really don't care for what most do or say about me anymore, i mean it kinda makes me a loner, and that is something i am okay with....though i am working on striking a solid balance between doing what i want and 'playing the game' as it were so i can have just enough social contact to get what i want in certain situations
my goals for 2010:
-register as a pharmacist
-get some more ink, got some designs in mind for my rib and calf pieces.....they're gonna be BIG!
-go to the US and visit the fam
-go to Amsterdam and rock out for a bit
-qualify for the national powerlifting championships
-maybe find a girl for something meaningful as opposed to just fucking......that'd be cool
-get a new motorcycle....got a few ideas in mind
-join the Army as a pharmacist if they'll have me!
now,
when i think about it.....i entered the 2000's as a VERY NAIVE 17 year old, and i leave it as a much wiser 27 year old.......i was thinking about this morning whilst i was laying in bed and i just kinda freaked a bit.....man, if i knew then what i knew now, i'd have got laid a lot more, haha, but a few other things in my life woulda gone a bit smoother, but is that necessarily a bad thing that they didn't, i am not sure that it is TBH as these experiences make you who you are to some degree....
anyway,
take care whoever and where you and enjoy a great new year in 2010
