Working at the Horse and Plow (part of The American Club) was great, and loads of fun.
It's rather sad that I probably won't see some of those guys/gals again, but it is time for me to move on.
Maybe I will see them again in the future, I am sure that Ben, as long as he keeps working hard, will become a great chef one day if he wants to. Mark...well...I don't know about him, he has great potential, but I don't think he cares enough about anything yet.
All the great times I had at that place...it was almost like a second home.
To all those great friends I made working there, I bid you farewell, may you have great lives and live up to your potential.
I must keep moving forward in my own direction, but I hope our paths cross again one day!

13:27 CST It's been a while since I posted here.  I have been a bit bored lately...and have not felt like working on my blog mod more for the moment. If anything, right now I feel like watching some Ghost in the Shell...which I just might do...

1:26 CST The biggest mistakes made in life are made during the times when your under pressure. It is hard as hell sometimes, but you just need to take a step back, calm down, and then continue. This is another thing I must work on in my life. Sometimes I just have so much pressure to do something I feel like I could explode, and then of course things keep getting worse because I try so hard not to screw up (because I concentrate on the little part I am working on and don't look ahead).
--- end of rant and onto other things in my life ATM ---
So I gave my boss my 2 week notice, and I feel kinda bad, especially for the guys at work. Once I am gone they will have 3 people that can work at night and it will turn into hell for a while until the find someone else. But I need to move on and do something with my life. Even with as long as I have been there I wonder why I allowed myself to continue staying around here this long. I must move on with my life and career. It will be difficult, but I believe it could be a lot of fun as well.
The place I have been looking at most recently is the Boston area. There seems to be somewhat of a demand for PHP developers in that area, so I am sure I could get a decent job. Also, MIT is in the same area, so I could look at going to MIT. I'd love to learn more about electronics and get into robotics, because right now, most of low level hardware is far beyond my knowledge. I think I'd have a lot of fun with most of the people that go to school there. But then of course there is the hefty cost of going to school there, $30,000 to $36,000 a year...but if I could go there, have a lot of fun, learn new things, and have a fun part time job I wouldn't worry about the cost at all.
I am just afraid that I am going to have to move to some place first, then go job hunting, because it does not look like I am going to get any job offers where I am at now.
But now it's time to go to bed and forget about all my troubles by...

So I have decided I finally want to start using my blog to write how I feel, if not for others to learn from my experiences, just for me to get things out and look back upon at some other time. This may be updated at multiple times during the day and have more content added, so I am marking out the times I added things with markers like the following: 11:48 CST Being social is difficult for some of us. I would include myself in that group who has a had time being social with anyone and everyone.
Some people drink and do drugs to become more social, and some people just run away from it and keep to themselves. And others slowly try to work on their social problems but do not want to do any drugs to make them more social.
I'd place my older self in the second category somewhat. I was social, but only when I was behind my computer. Recently I have been trying to work on my social problems, and my first big step is to open myself up and open up (as I am doing now). Already I have had one experience which I thought could turn out great go bad (from what I wanted) and get very complicated. I thought things could be great with us, but she turned out to be a completely different person than what I thought. I do enjoy being with her still however, and now we are casual friends again I believe.
I guess what I am trying to say is, if you open yourself up, you will get hurt at some time. However do not let the fear of it hold you back as I once did. Take your time with things and they will usually turn out good. The joy you get out of being social and going out with others is worth the pain you will have.
Life is difficult, painful, and just a bitch at times, but accept the pain wholly and move on. Moving on doesn't have to mean moving away, but moving forward in whatever direction you feel is necessary. Never stop moving forward.
And that ends my rant for now. It is now 12:02, and until next time, keep moving forward.
