meme Tuesday: Ten Years
Anil, the Jay-Z of blogging, has me thinking about my life ten years ago today:
Ten years ago today, I was just returning home (Van Nuys) after 4 years of college (The George Washington University), having not graduated but being "done".
Ten years ago today, I had a girlfriend who was due to start law school at Pepperdine University in Malibu but she was spending her summer in Pittsburg, CA.
Ten years ago today, I was starting my job hunt. In about a month, I would start working at Mount St. Mary's College as the Student Affairs Administrative Assistant. I'd redesign their Student Affairs website, redesign the Student Handbook, teach an intro to journalism class, and about 6 months in, hate it hate it hate it.
Ten years ago today, I'd run a fantasy pro wrestling league online. Yes, I was that nerdy.
Ten years ago today, I probably thought my dad was the ultimate bane to my existence.
Ten years ago today, I was listening to a whole lotta Notorious B.I.G. and Usher and Lilith Fair type ish and Erykah Badu was about to blow my mind.
Ten years ago today, I have no earthly idea what I was watching on TV.
Ten years ago today, I didn't own a car.
Ten years ago today, I was taking an intro to film summer course at LA Valley College.

Hey isn't this the second time you've been featured on the Vox homepage?
It would be silly for me to do my ten years. I was 17 and not up to anything at all.
Now, though, I'm trying to imagine what my life will be like ten years in the future.
