25 years old and life is just beginning…

August 14, 2005 By

Today I turn 25. In the past when anybody I knew turned 25 I would laugh at them simply because they were now a quarter of century in age. That’s ridiculous in my mind because I am still a kid and I just have this association that 25 means no more kid stuff. Well we all know that isn’t true. The problem with getting older is that I get a bit more anxious when I find myself not accomplishing my goals in life.

This will come off as bragging, but I am trying to list the major events that have happened in my life:

  • 3 – First crush
  • 11 – First C in conduct of all things
  • 11 – First girlfriend
  • 12 – First kiss on lips and french kiss
  • 15 – First real steady girlfriend
  • 17 – Graduated with IB Diploma
  • 17 – Accepted into Harvard, Brown, Georgetown and Vanderbilt. Chose University of South Florida to stay close to my brother.
  • 18 – Start college with 60 credits (Junior)
  • 19 – Offered pro soccer contract that I turned down because all those stay in school commercials were starting to kick in.
  • 20 – Named captain of soccer team
  • 21 – Graduated with Bachelors in MIS
  • 23 – Graduated with Masters in MIS
  • 23 – Fired from job
  • 24 – CEO (just a title but still cool as hell) of 9rules, Inc.
  • 25 – Nothing.

Things I have yet to accomplish that I know most of the people my age have already:

  • Steady girlfriend, fiancee, or wife
  • Car they want to drive
  • House
  • Family

And if your mom is anything like my mom you know how it gets when she contstantly asks how your love life is…

So today I will celebrate and tomorrow will become just another day to achieve world dominance. Oh and to work on the presentation for the Blog Business Summit.
