not really a pick up of the year, more like a pick up of the first 6 months of 2009...

but does the pickup thread have any ACTUARIES?!?! or like myself, aspiring actuaries?!?!

results of November's exams jus came out this morning and...

I failed that exam twice already @_@ but now I have 2 passed exams to put on my resume!

hopefully I will have passed a 3rd by the same time next year, til then I'ma start hitting up new companies again real soon.

First picture is stuff from December, but was too lazy to take pics.

All games were bought from Gamefly used, except Vampire Rain, which was from Goozex. $10 each except NG2, which was $15.

Actual January stuff

DSC06353.jpg


Harvey Birdman was from Goozex as well.

And finally, my new room from my new home, which is taking way too fucking long to finish. Ignore the mess and general barebones look, I just threw shit around while unpacking and the room hasn't been completely furnished yet.

One last thing I forgot to take a pic of is cologne my brother and his girlfriend gave me for Christmas. Will try to post later.

Grats! My girlfriend passed the first exam earlier this year, and she's been anxious about this for the past month. The actual scores come out on Monday, right?

yup. official scores on monday, and I'm hype!!

first time I got a 3, 2nd time a 4,

3rd time I actually bought a study guide and began to see all my mistakes and misunderstandings,

I felt like I kicked that test's ass! I hope I get a 10!!

also, fuck this bad US economy crap!

I wanted to get me a little sumthin sumthin from japan as a gift to me, but the Yen exchange rate is not very good looking at the moment >_<

:D

My dad says we may got pin striping for it, and I'm not sure if I really like the wheels. Oh well, I'm really grateful.

Edit: For all you Civ fans, the first song I played in my new car was "Baba Yetu."

We have the one with the removable grill plates. Super easy to clean up, and on it I make THE BEST CHEESEBURGERS IN THE WORLD.

Nice, I bought the same car a few months ago but in silver. fun ride, and it's so nice to be able to finally just plug my ipod into the dash without all kinds of extra junk.

Yeah, the one pictured has a series of removable plates you can use. They're all molded for different purposes too.

I'm finally BD ready :D

I bought this mouse earlier this week... and returned it the next day. No regular center click = fail.

I went back and bought the v450 nano instead. It doesn't have the extra buttons, but it was $20 cheaper and had a center click.

Um, he's happy that he got a new car that he likes?

...but he had to say it was ugly first? I don't want to get into a big argument about this but why not just leave that part out? It makes the congrats bit completely meaningless and backhanded.
