Back From the Void

Posted on January 3, 2007 by 1mil

I spent the last two hours looking for my exported posts and no luck, so I did the unthinkable — I conjured up the forces of darkness to get in touch with lost souls. Ok no, really I did a Google Desktop search, and lo and behold I found nothing more than scraps. So alas, while I wanted to bring you back the great posts from last year, I cannot recover many of them, but I did find a few! Ah well. Back to work!
(Oh btw, my good friend Foro Juan is going to find some his old posts, so hopefully I’ll get those soon)

Phase 2 in Progress.

Posted on November 17, 2006 by 1mil

Well, I’m two weeks from completing another major objective in my life as part of what I refer to as my “Five Phases.” I’ll be starting a new career-building, upward-moving job with a major Financial institution hooray! I’m excited and concerned at the same time — I mean, I’m leaving my somewhat comfortable job that I’ve been doing for nearly a year and a half now to take a chance on starting all over again. I learned a few lessons from this job which I hope to carry over with me. And with my new job theres more possibility of advancement! So let’s see how that goes. I want to paint myself as a responsible and friendly leader the minute I walk in the door. I’m going to try my best to do my best, and to get on the ladder moving upward! Sadly I had to say goodbye to one of my coworkers who had become a rather good friend of mine. At least I have him and many of my other colleagues on my LinkedIn profile; that way I’ll be able to keep in touch. Instant messenger works too. Well sooner than later I will bring millionster back up to its liveliness. Until then, have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Ignorance is Bliss

Posted on April 24, 2006 by 1mil

Archived Article

It seems that a lot of young folks today have life all figured out; make it through high school, grab that college degree, get a decent job, and get some nice rims on a hot truck seems to sum it up. It’s not surprising that the ‘youthful’ point of view is rather limited, afterall, if you havent been though life, how do you know whats going to happen? And really, why bother to plan for something you can’t predict. All I can say to that is, Ignorance is bliss.

Will Breakdance For Food

Posted on April 15, 2006 by 1mil

Have you ever wondered how much it costs for you to live day to day? The thought hadn’t occureed to me until one day I found myself with literally nothing and I had to stretch pennies to make some of the ends meet. In turn I became painfully aware of how much it actually costs me to live from day to day (not including luxuries like cable and a cell phone.) If you’re lucky enough to not have had such an experience, I hope maybe I can bring the thought to the forefront of your mind by sharing a hellish yet enlightening moment of my life
