>>79214590
Five credit hours away from earning an associate degree in computer science. And had been five credit hours away from earning it, for the last three semesters.
One class left, only one professor taught it, and he gave me an F every semester literally because he had family in politics that ensured no lawyer in the city would even give me the time of day.
>>79214590
Depending on the time of year, I was 9 or 10

>>79214590
fuck all of you who are born after the pokemon-age, who didnt play orginal gameboy, who never had a 56K-dial-up-modem, topkek when mum shouts to the basement u need to stop using internet for 10min cuz she needs to use the phone.
For those who dont know: u couldnt use internet and make a phone call at the same time in the beginning.
Then OH SHIT 128k ADSL connection was available, omg thats fast!!!
In 1997 I had those Adidas pants with buttons, dental bracelet, played gameboy on the way home from school, wearing a-2-size-too-large-sweater, and god damn u didnt know anything called "evil" back then.
U didnt have any fucking clue how hardcore redpilled u would have to become later in life, shit.
I remember playing N64 goldeneye, man didnt think bout anything else back then. Despite growing up in a fucked up broken home where parents were fighting nonstop, would close my door and always stay up at night cuz thats the only time when everyone was sleeping and the only time there was peace in the house.
Would always skip out on dinner to avoid all the parents arguing.
Would play vidya in the night and go to kitchen 3 am and take whatever pieces that were left from the dinner. Mum knew and understood this, so she would always saved some food for me and my brother.
If u at least dont know about N64 and are born too late for that, then literally just kill yourself, u missed out on the golden age.
>>79214590
I remember those pants.
I was young in 1997. Just spent my days playing video games and playing outside. The sun shined brighter in 1997.

Getting drunk at penn state university, university park campus
Playing rugby on the weekends. Still had the dream of entering a field in cognitive computer science with an interest in artificial intelligence and fuzzy logic. Watching Kianas fitness on ESPN 2 religiously before heading to golds or bodywork so gym at PSU. Playing ea nba basketball on sega Genesis while tripping on acid. Having drunken and drug binge adventures every weekend. Thinking the future had some special purpose for me.

Not as I expected. Ended up doing something else because the money was good and easy, for me at least.
I should have persisted in my field, but grew tired of studying and exams. Eventually got so used to my routine, my passion died. I can't say I'm miserable, but I know deep inside I'll never be fulfilled.
But I don't want to make /pol/ my tampon. Long story short, don't let yourself get off path. Because getting back on becomes mor difficult as the years pass by.

Wouldnt change my life if I could I guess despite having a fucked up live in a fucked up family.
the struggles just made me appreciate things even more,
God bless

Enjoying the glorious 90s with my pokemon cards, watching DB, playing football in the park. Eating at McDonalds before the Nuggets became shit.
Basically enjoying the pre 9/11 world

GLORIOUS DAYS
London in the 90s was fucking top. How was Aus? Melbourne?
Selling MDMA weed and cocaine at my dorm at Western Uni, brining back 17-18 year old highschool girls from raves to my dorm and banging them. Taking acid with my buddies and doing jack shit. Got kicked out from rushing a frat for hooking up w a chick as a pledge, hahaha. University was so cash
Who else played with water pokemon?
Blastoise Hydro Pump Master Race!
>>79214590
Doing whatever a 1-year-old did. My dad started me playing N64 at age 2 though so I didn't miss out on that. Only thing I wish I could have experienced was the internet back then.
RAF Base. Practically a gated community, there was no benefits hound, no immigrants, token black guy, 3 full sized football pitches, the local RAF pub everybody went to friday night without fail. I honestly weep for the young.
Yeah poppers were the craze, everyone had a pair.
Mario Kart, Golden eye, f zero, south park shooter (multi player was fucking hilarious)

Just say it:
>Im a massive faggot.
I still have my gameboy colour (the purple one) and my cards in my nostalgia drawer.
>>79219105
We just collected the cards and bragged about their supposed rareness.
Hardly ever did we actually played with them and even then we just pulled the rules out of our asses because nobody really knew how they worked.

Playing Quake clan matches online, Warcraft 2 offline, enjoying being a precocious 11 year old and talking to creepy people I now realize were pretending to be girls on IRC. I was just starting to rent anime on VHS tapes from the local video store.
Great times. The majority of people on the internet were educated or at least significantly above-average intelligence. Websites were primarily text-based and not crowded up with a bunch of scripts and malware.
Anime characters shrines man, wow.

I was in freshman year of high school, participating in the schools american football team. It was a really wonderous time full of anxiety and rage as my hormones sky rocketed due to cheerleaders in short skirts and hitting people on the field. Whenever i relive this moment in my life through memories im overcome by a sense of comfyness i otherwise never feel. It truly was the greatest time of my life.
