I figured for my first post in my official blog, I’m going to go all out and unleash whatever it is my little mind holds back on a daily basis. This year has been one of the craziest years of my life. All of the choices I’ve made, the places I’ve been, and the people I’ve met… I’m in a completely different place from a year ago. Never, in my wildest dreams, could I have guessed I’d be where I am today. And with all of the recent events that have occurred these past couple months, I come to realize that it’s just going to get crazier.
Hell, losing my job at CGS was more than just the obvious. The league closed down, that sucked balls. I became unemployed for the holidays. That sucked too. But most importantly, and I can’t stress this enough, I loose a bunch of good friends.
I know what you’re going to say. They aren’t really lost. They’ll always be there. We’ll always be friends. But, there still is going to be an emptiness that I’ll have to deal with.
Now, more than ever, do I understand the meaning of having a great life. NO, SERIOUSLY! I’m not just high or talking out of my ass here. I had an amazing job. Everyone I worked with was chill enough to freaking go bowling with on the weekends. The fucking CEO saw a naked anime chick on my desktop and thought I was cute for it. I had a boss that I feared, and completely respected.
And of course, my best friends were just a few steps away for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
You know, thinking about it now, I don’t think I took any of that for granted. I cherished every time I went out and had coffee, or ran over to I-Hop, and even lugged our asses clear across the main street to Inn-N-Out. There was never a day where I felt like work was too much, or I was so annoyed, or that I even hated my bosses. This was the first time that I worked at a place that was, dare I say, PERFECT!
Right, no more QQ. It’s the holidays, and I’ve got a bunch of pretty good job op’s waiting for me at the start of the new year. I guess my heart does feel heavy knowing that there’s a slim chance I’d ever get to work with my buddies again, but fuck… that doesn’t mean they’re going anywhere.
Wheat, Hogan, Leander, Mike, Three, Sarah, Kirk…
to you assholes that make me feel this way. <3 Good luck & See You SOON!
Here’s to the new year.
