The First Post

I remember the first important decision (to my 5 year-old-self) that I had to make. It was between a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese or a Nintendo 64. I remember discussing the benefits of each with my brother.

That decision seems trivial and artificial now. My musings now may see the same fate in the eyes of my 26 year-old-self. But that decision changed me.

I remember spending countless hours in front of the tube trying to beat the next boss on a harder level. Hours I could have spent outside, making new friends and what not.

Do I regret choosing a Nintendo 64 over a social life? No.

Because I am happy with what I am today.

It's my future that I'm worried about.
