RSBDavid Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I did not see any topics like this on the first page. Ok, I know all of you have things you wish to accomplish. Ill share mine and you can share yours. Goal 1 - Host good LAN party This article inspired me to host a small LAN party. This is becomming a relality. Me and about five of my friends are going to host a 30 person LAN party. We have been researching things we need to do. We have a small office building section (about 4k square foot) which is going to cost around $130.00 for all day + overnight rental (we got deal because the owner is my work manager's brother. The office building has a dedicated internet connection and network connections already, so all we have to do is plug and play basically. It also has heating and air-cooling as well as good power plugs.. We plan to charge 15 bucks for normal play and 20 for all day + overnight. I will use my connections ( I work at a pepsi factory) to get free soft drinks and a temporary fountain drink maker. We will serve grilled food and other things for food. We will limit the ages to: 16 - 17 can only play from noon to 10pm. 18 and older can play however long they want( I am 18 myself). In all, it will cost us about 400ish dollars. but we could make up a 200 dollar profit, which we will basically give away as prizes(or use to cover liability insurance). We will probably host it next month on a non snowy day. We will probably have my cousin (paramedic) on call just in case we have any medical issues. We will plan for more people since we will advertise on newspapers and radio. I know a lot of people will come since we have a lot of computer geeks/gamers around my 'hood. We have almost everything you can think of planned. edit: [hide=Game list]COD4 TF Halo 2 (for vista users) AOE3 -Others- Basically any multiplayer shooter game or Stretegy game. edit: I just bought my 75th PC game![/hide] Dream: Build a geek house. I will have a hidden room with my special office. I will have the latest technology. I will have an indoor hot-tub and theater room. I want to get a phd in computer science and network security. So what are your dreams and goals? [software Engineer] - [Ability Bar Suggestion] - [Gaming Enthusiast] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IGoddessI Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I only really have 2 more goals in life.. should really get some more but most of them have already been accomplished. 1. Get really rich 2. Spend it on travel The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.

Zierro Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 1. Have a house of my own for my family and I. 2. Be in a band and make at least one great album. 3. Do something to be remembered by.

fastortoise Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Setting myself long term goals will just lead to disappointment. Ideas of grandeur don't help either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warri0r45 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Become a molecular biologist and contribute something to humanity through science.

Lenticular_J Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Be a hero and an adventurer. Space it up (dammit thought I'd be first). Helicopter pilot's license (hah). Motorcycle license (that's more a short-term goal, although I guess you could count finding the perfect bike as a lifelong goal). catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger_Warrior Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Generally, to help others around me live easier and more comfortable lives. In real terms, that's my main motivation for becoming a doctor. I want to become a GP, and work in a poor area, like the one I've been raised in, for the NHS. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

assassin_696 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I'd like to become a successful theoretical physicist, perhaps by fundamentally changing the way people think about things (a la Einstein) but in reality I'd simply like to know that I made a difference. I hope I can become a good communicator of science, not only to students but also to the public and inspire some future generations. Other, slightly more common goals are to spend the rest of my life with someone I love, learn as much as I can and be a good friend and interesting person to be around.

Perakp Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 My life-long goal is to stay alive. I will fail. [ Atm it's looking like I'm going to study physics (nanotech \ :ohnoes: ), my goal is to NOT become a teacher. ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenticular_J Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 -Save money to go to america and try to survive as a bum for a few months to see how it is like. Not all that difficult, actually. We have a lotta homeless folks in my town, and the news did a report on them. The median wage they made was $113.42 a day, just for asking for money. They were the aggressive ones, though. I'm sure passive bums make much less. 1a. If 1 fails, become a movie director. I reckon you'd prefer to be a producer. Directors deal with the actors, producers deal with the film and its greatness. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Viola Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 To come to that LAN party. And learn Russian and become a nuclear engineer in the United States Navy. I agree with the above post. 1. Become the first person to survive a CNRhK. 2. Design my own 3d MMO 3. Finish my book. 4. Make a movie starring all the TIFers. 5. Host a TIFcon.
