The YEAR in Review!

What a year. There are simply too many things to list. A few things I can remember (in random order) include:

- Finishing by far, my wretched and hated school year; grade 10.
- Gaining 6 pounds (fat and muscle) this year = a pound every 2 months!
- Punching the lights out of D**** P**** at the stadium and getting away with it.
- Having sexual fantasies concerning my Lindsay, whom I encountered through kickboxing.
- Having an awesome time playing campfire, circle, sing-a-long, pool and playground games with kids all summer long.
- Helping kids who couldn't swim float at my expense. (Nearly drowning myself on several occasions)
- Getting my ass handed to me on a dimanond-studded plate during a wrestling tournament in Wetaskiwin.
- Walking around school in a 10 cent sling for a solid week.
- Having the pleasure of watching the Oiler's fail. (Sorry Edmonton)
- Circulating some juicy gossip!
- Laughing at all the grade 10's who felt the way I felt a year ago; suicidal and melancholy.
- Giggling whenever I saw someone smaller than myself lift weights (and I am very small so that says something if your smaller than me)
- Gaining half my PFT certifcation -.-
- Countless weekends spent with my buddy's playing videogames, maknig fun of ugly chicks and imitating other try-hard guys.
- Drinking some fo the NASTIEST supplement shakes with hopes of getting bigger.
- To those infinite times I plugged my home toilet and had to use a chopstick to disassemble the poop lodged in the pool.
- Jogging the river valley with my hilarious chinese parents.
- Trying to give up the stupid game of poker.
- etc!

What a year. What a way to end it as well. Just tonight after my volunteering shift, I went to a friend's restaurant with a few buddies. After everyone left, me and my friend ate half a red chili pepper thing. You know those hot ass things that burn for 20 minutes and give you fucking heart burn. Well, we split a big one and it really does give you a burning sensation for an upwards of 20 minutes and a piercing pain in your digestive tract, maknig it hard for you to breathe and so on. When I eat stuff, I take out my retainer. So I took out my retainer to eat the damn pepper and now it is gone. Forever, lost. I will love you forever and always my beloved pink, wet, and smelly retainer.

But anyways, I hope everyone enjoyed their year. This year I discovered something, more important than anything else. Often times people bicker and complain about their life more than they really should be. Even coming from myself, I can say I live a very fulfilling life, even though it may seem that all I do with my time is eat, sleep, complain about my dumbass school, do my homework and exercise; I still take time to bask in the presence of my family and friends. I'm hoping that anyone who is reading this, will look back on their year in a positive way and look at it for what it turned out to be and not what it could have been. Every year, around this time of year, I hear countless people wish for a better more enjoyable and pleasurable year. Well, life is what you think of it so work with what you've got and enjoy it. There is no sense in regret. So once again I hope everyone had an awesome 2006 and may 2007 be even awesome - er.

P.S. Wow, I almost forgot. My new year rez is to gain 10 pounds of solid good mass. So at the end of 2007 I hope to be a strong and lean 166 pounds! What's your new year's resolution?
