It’s that time of the year again,  I’m getting older. I’m 24 now. Starting to really grow up. Oh well. Age is but a number!

Short and concise, I’ll be back with the same message next year – stay tuned!

So here we are; 2010. Quite the adventure, no?  Only two years left until we all go bang-bang. Even so, if there’s one thing I regret about 2009 it’s the lack of  a “goals for the year” post. I apparently didn’t have any goals for 2009 – a shame. So 2010 is already off to a better start. I have goals. A lot of them. In a year’s time, I’ll make a recap on how things went. Hopefully well. Much like Mats did a couple of days ago. Without further ado:

YepYep, yes indeed. That’s quite a title if I may say so myself. Anywho; this post is awfully revealing and stuff. It contains pictures. Lots of them. Now, some of them are a bit graphic, some include partial nudity, some are just downright scary. All of them are of me. Just me. So viewer discretion is by all means advised. The pictures are all from the same event, an event that took place a couple of weeks back during the last days of True Summer, when I was preparing for school.

The thing is, I didn’t shave during July. At all. With SchiZo threatening to braid it in my sleep and me finally realizing it really didn’t look any good I decided to let it go. Also, people walking up to me on the street and giving me change got real old – real quick. I had to do something.

So, unless you’re easily offended, lock up your kids and throw your wife in the basement; Here We Go!

It’s been raining hard all day. The winds are blowing like a penniless girl in Amsterdam. There’s no doubt about it. Summer’s gone – Fall is here. Or Autumn, if you’re into that kind of shit. Anyways, I don’t know what to think about it. I hate the short days. It’s getting darker and darker every day. I love to hear the rain brutally crash upon the windows when I’m inside. I hate that same rain when I’m forced to go to school. But I love the fact that I can stay in all day and blame it on the weather.

It’s been a couple of weeks since I last posted anything. The reason for my treason is school. I’m back to my IT studies. This time with what I like to call Motivation. I’ve finally settled in now though, so things are going great. I really think there’s a slight chance I’ll actually become something this time around. That’s kinda cool.

I’d like to thank everyone who gave me their valuable feedback and experience when I wanted help deciding on a DSLR, but as things unfold it seems I neither have the time nor the money to make such an investment now. The time is obviously because of school – I want to do well – the money is also, well kind of, because of school. I bought a Macbook Pro. And there’s no doubt about it; It was expensive. But so far I’m very pleased, and hopefully it’ll help me get trough all of my assignments when they start to pile up.

So there you have it, a little update about what’s going on. Stay tuned the next couple of days for pictures of me transforming from a 40 year old dirty hobo to a twelve year old innocent altar boy. In the meantine, if you’re feeling creative, I urge you to drop by my girlfriend’s oekaki board!

Oh, and I apologize for that penniless girl comment. I don’t even know what that was.

The design of the current thomasaj.com is finally done. Just some 18 months after launch. Not too shabby. I’d been thinking about replacing that green thingy I had pretty much every day since I first laid my eyes on it. I just didn’t know what to put there. That was until Trine drew me this one night. It’s way more fitting. Hopefully, that’s not how she sees me everyday, but it sure is a more fitting picture for this blog of mine. I use this place to vent. God knows I need it.

Also, we’ve gotten a new hobby. Goldfish! Meet Dizzy and Little Red Riding Hood. They are awesome. However, I predict this hobby will grow into an expensive one. Goldfish are cool.
