Man, I've had a really good last couple of years. Although I got laid off from my full time job at the end of 2008, I went back to part time work in 2009 and still had an amazing year.
Quick recap of 2009:
January - Went back to part time work
February - Street Fighter 4 Launch Party in LA. Crazy night, 2nd rate celebrities on a red carpet etc.
March - Joined Space Dragons Dragonboat Team, got my iPhone!
April - Ninja Warrior (NinjaFest) aka SuckFest
-Went to Arizona to compete for the first time with Space Dragons. Fun weekend.
-Kogi truck is overrated
May - DNF development team let go after 12 years =( on my birthday.
-Went to Norcal for SS3
June - Went to Vancouver,Canada with Space Dragons (tandem biked with Stephanie around Stanley Park/zipline/ATV riding), had some awesome food.
-Drove down from Vancouver by bus to Washington/Oregon and saw Mt St Helens/Space Needle/Pike Place/underground cave exploring/ kayaking around San Juan islands
July - Went to Vegas and won Evo2k9 Tekken 6 Exhibition Tournament
August - Spent a few weeks in Tokyo, Japan. Saw the sites, played in SBO/Joybox. Ton of fun.

October - Signed up at 24 Hour Fitness finally. Tekken 6 Launch Party / Tekken 6 released / Began work on LUYG
November - Launched Level Up Your Game webseries. Placed 2nd at Norcal Regionals.
December - Tekken 6 Nationals tournament in San Francisco. Did not do well at all, but it was a crazy cool tournament setup (in a boxing ring) and streamed live on the internet, and I got to meet the producer of Tekken 6 where he personally thanked MYK and myself for LUYG (should've taken pictures with him)
And of course the random gatherings with friends, LAN parties, Rock Band LANs, movies, Tasters Choice dinners, etc
2010, you've got a lot to follow.. |
