delayed....

sorry for the delay, this took a little bit more thought... here's my answer to:

If you didn't have ANY realistic limitations in the world (no chance of failure and millions of dollars) what would you be doing differently ... in your relationships with others/your career/your various endeavors/etc etc.....

Ok let's just say I've only recently acquired this fortune, because if that had happened before, then I'd be a totally different person. So with regards to:

1) Relationships with others:
I probably would still treat everyone the same as I had before, but I now can afford to be more generous. I would have a lot more toys for them to envy over though. I've always maintained that there is a direct correlation between the amount of material goods a person possesses and their status as a bitch regardless of how nice they are (e.g. Barbie is an uber-bitch, whereas I currently am way less of a bitch then her). So I guess I'd be a bit of a bitch.

2) Career/School/etc.:
I still would be in school and at my current job. First of all, I don't treat school as the huge dreaded thing that I have to do (although sometimes it does feel like it). I like going to school just because I like to learn more. (Grades may not be the most important to me... maybe that's the problem there... but that's another topic) In fact, I participated in a lively debate regarding a tort in my business law class this morning, maybe it had something to do with the can of red bull I was cluching in my paws.

Career wise.... well I don't think I'm quite there yet, but I do love my job. I'm pretty sure it had something to do with the fact that you could find me at my local Best Buy store at least 3 times a week prior to my employment. To illustrate that point, take yesterday as an example. I went into the store looking for a new mouse because I have abused my old one for the last time. I ended up with a great deal on a nice new one, and I also hauled 8 CD's, 6 movies, and 1 tv series. This feeds my addiction to collecting a huge bunch of toys quite nicely. And yes, if I didn't work there, I still would have gotten that amount of stuff.

On a stretch, maybe I would have gone into philosophy and law instead of CS and buisness. Afterall, those are the only classes I was ever really good at other then a few literature classes. So, maybe the whole english major thing would have been a good choice afterall. Guess I'm 5 years late.

3) Various endeavors:
I definately would travel more. I would take a long road trip, car and/or train, and I would travel the world. I would do the "discover your country" thing. I would spend months in various parts of Europe. I would take my friends to Hong Kong, and spend time with some family. I would go everywhere. I would write all about it, and I would take lots and lots of pictures and post it for all to see.

I'm a cross between a Status Buzz and an Entertaining Buzz (I'm not all that responsible), if you people at work haven't figured that out already. I would have a lot of toys. Not that I don't have a bunch already, but in economic terms, I have unlimited want. One of my goals this year is to acquire all the toys I have on my list (please refer to sidebar). It's a drug I can't refuse.

I would go ahead and get a new house for my parents, and I would take over the place we have right now. I kid you not, I love this place. It's in a great location, and it's just big enough for me. I think I would remodel it a bit though. New stuff everywhere. I just want to be comfortable.

I can't think of anything more for now, if I do, I'll put it down.
