Dude! I don’t know about you but for me this has been a really terrific year. I can’t believe how good it’s been. So many fun experiences. I’ll be more than happy to tell you about them soon (not now because you might get scared out of your whole mind) but first I’ll just ask you the questions. (I) When was the best time(s) of your life? Not just in 2005 (II) What’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you or you’ve ever done? And (III) what’s the greatest/coolest thing you’ve always wanted to do, possible or impossible? And just for fun… what New Year’s Eve resolutions do you plan to break right away? Only answer the questions you want to.
Before I begin, I have to mention a little thing. Remember in Watoad’s “Amazing Unexperiences” thread when I mentioned something about having an idea kind of like his? This is that topic. Woo-hoo.
Now for my own huge account. You may remember a lot of these things I said. 2005: Y.R.’s Year of Awesome
Favorite memories of the year (in order even, I think):
(1) Got my driver’s license today… hooray! And I only failed once before that! (because of a stupid bad last-minute yellow light decision)
(2) Fifth draws a great picture of my character, Yoshisaurus Rex, that I’m now using for my avatar. Thanks again, man.
(3) For a birthday present, Grandma got me the Mega Man Anniversary Collection and this was the first time I ever played a Mega Man game. Na-na-na-na-nuh, nuh-na-na-na-nuh (na-nuh-na)!
(4) One of my best birthday parties, with just me and my Dad. He drove me around and we did fun stuff that I wanted to do like go to Best Buy, a large book store (where I got a FoxTrot comic), and Game Stop (where I played Donkey Kong Jungle Beat finally). We also ate at IHOP for the first time and that was so delicious! Slobberin’ good!
(5) At an amusement park I won a Sonic doll and got a caricature of myself for the first time. I also threw up for the first time after going on a ride (o 8(X O)
(6) I finally got a cell phone, a debit card, and opened a checking account (maybe I should have done that sooner). I also lost my allowance though because the phone plan costs $15 a month and usually I get $10 a month.
(7) Got my first very own personal computer, an E-machine!! So long, Windows 98. XP This computer also lets me listen to WTMK from Media Player unlike the last one and that’s pretty sweet.
[8] Star Wars III, baby!
(9) Best job ever! I worked at a camp in another town and earned money for college, stayed in a cabin, read some good books, watched some good DVDs, rode a horse, swam in a big pool, spent an entire day with my roommate on the road, played Donkey Konga and Smash Bros with my other roommate, acted in great drama for the first time in a long time, grew out my side burns a little for the first time #^_^#, and made a lot of great new friends and memories with them. This alone was the best part of the whole year.
(10) Got that green 1-up T-shirt I wanted so bad. Also got my first Sonic shirt; a cool black Sonic X T-shirt for $10.
(11) My family went to our state fair for the first time!
(12) Went to my first water park with my brother and grandma. Better than awesome!
(13) Fun college classes this year: Had “Exploring Music” (history of music and composers) and two online computer classes, which are all things I love. On the other hand, Biology almost sucked the life out of me. But I did learn quite a lot from that and it was funny how many times I thought about episodes of The Magic School Bus when I studied certain subjects.
(14) Sonic X season 3 begins! Maybe I didn’t need to mention this.
(15) Learn about the Revolution and the controller and experience first horror and then huge excitement (and we are still waiting for that!)
(16) Some time in October I have my 1-year anniversary at the Fungi Forums. And then in November… we get a new message board that makes many of our dreams come true. Do the Mario! (E I)Xo{D
(17) A friend’s relative who used to play for the Panthers moved over to the Bears. According to the friend, this guy said he was training as hard as he could so that he beat his old team when they played each other (just to show them how much he had improved). On Sunday, Nov. 20, the Bears played the Panthers and the Bears won! I felt so happy and fortunate that I could see that (because I hardly ever watch foot ball) and felt happy for the guy too. But I do feel sorry for you Panthers fans.
(18) For Christmas I got Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, my first DDR game (and first Mario game for GC)! At first I didn’t think I would like it but then I tried playing on Hard and found out how fun it can get. And the music… almost every song is great. As soon as I learn how to play without hurting my left foot I bet I’ll like this game even more. Se-quel! Se-quel!
(19) The day after I finish reading the first Chronicles of Narnia book, Grandma takes my brother and I to see the movie! That was so good. Not at all safe, but very good.
Even though I said that this year was really good, it actually wasn’t my best year. Did I fool you there? Ha ha. The best year of my life was a long time ago, and it involves religion so I don’t know if it would be polite/proper to say it or not. But I hope this can turn out to be more than just a guy blabbing about his life and that others can find things to talk about too. I’m just too excited and thankful to keep this stuff to myself you know! (=(: )|)
Now I want to hear what you have to say! And hope that this isn’t my worst idea ever.
