Yearly Goals

So lets see what i'll be attempting to do this year. I've tried to make goal list in the past and the shit just doesn't work for me. I'd been thinking about this list long and hard for the past week and what I've decided is that a few things need to happen this year, else I fear I may become a drunken hobo.

1. Business. I need to see some items from my nearly finished website, www.ghettoguides.com. I've encountered all sorts of reasons why it hasn't happened yet, and most of it amounts to bullshit. Time to risk a little dysentery and eat all that bullshit and get paid.

2. Tying up loose ends in my foreign language skills. Oh, I can get by in Spanish and Japanese - I even talked my way out of a parking fine in spanish - but this shit needs to get tightened up.

3. Getting better with women. This will prove challenging. I like to approach problems with logic and craft a solution, but there's a reason why hurricanes were only named after women until 1978 when feminism began to rear it's nagging head. What I've uncovered so far is that girls are predictably irrational. If you're scratching your head reading that last statement going, "What the fuck is predictable irrationality" then you my friend are dealing with the same problem I have.

4. Saving money. Because I grew up extremely poor and my skin tone is brown, I never learned the proper way to treat money. I grew up alongside people who take lyrics like, "If you got money, and you know it, take it out your pocket and throw it" as serious as their last welfare check. I'm currently unlearning many of the ignorant laws of money I grew up on, but some of that shit goes deep. Fortunately I keep getting better with each year. My skin is even two shades lighter than when I started.

5. Getting the fuck out. I seriously hate winter. I've also lived in the same two cities most of my life. It's time to see the world. I've handled most of the fears I've had about bouncing to a foreign land with little money and even have a working plan. I will not turn 26 without a serious trip under my belt. Hell, I won't turn 26 in this country if I can help it.

Hmm, that about sums it up
