House, money, skating, business, success, happiness
Man... Due to this lame cold weather I've been getting really bored which has caused me to do a ton of thinking lately (and way too many updates on this site).
Watching Jason move into a 4 bedroom brick house in a nice neighborhood is really starting to take a toll on me. I have no freedom in this apartment. The lame brass door handles, and dining room light are really bothering me. I can't put my miniramp up, I can't really do anything. So I think it's time to move into a dope crib.
Ah crap... Money. I think that I make a pretty respectable salary, but I just don't think I can afford what I want in a house. So why not move into a townhouse for now... Hmmm, that would be really nice... no lawn mowing, no plowing, no shoveling, a little more freedom. But still, no where to skate. Townhouses out here just don't come with basements and I doubt that they would appreciate me putting a ramp in the tiny back yard that they give me. I am young. I want to skate now... not in 7 years when I can afford the house I want and start losing the ability to skate.
Therefore I need another means of income. I really hope that Nick and I's web business does well. We both have mad skills and there are plenty of great companies in the area that we could help. I really want to use my video skills somewhere too. I feel like I have talent in that area but I'm not using it like I could be... that makes me really sad.
One thing I'm pretty sure of is that I'm going to go back to work for Vector Marketing on the side... that was a fun job. KNIVES.
Maybe I should take out a loan and open a skatepark... Then I could skate all I wanted and maybe even make money doing it. That'd be a weird investment... I wonder what the success rate is on that.
I am just not really happy with things right now... I really think that I should be doing better for myself. I'm definitely not living to my fullest potential... Some doors need to open up here.
