Life Goals

January 15, 2008 by ignatiof.

I keep a list of life goals in a plain text file on my computer. Some are small things, like I want to see the planet Mercury through the telescope at some point. No problem. I figure I can do that one. I’d also like to learn a  foreign language, but not French, cause I already know that one perfectly, je n’ai le pas?

Last night, I completed one of my life goals. It’s been on my list for twenty years since it first became a possibility.  You guessed it - I finally beat Super Mario 2. It’s been a long time coming, but when I slid that fat rotten tomato down Wart’s fugly throat for the 6th time without dying, I felt so much like I felt at any other time in my life that it made me wonder why I spent all those hours trying to finish the game.

Regardless, beating Super Mario 64 is my next goal.
