Now that NAIC is behind us -- I decided to figure out our cost for the season. We hit every IC and every NA regional with 3 people. The 3 of us had vastly different goals and every goal was achieved.
My goal was Ace Trainer -- which I pulled off by getting 199 CP at locals and 20 CP from Houston regional after some DQ's put in me in T1024.
Liam's goal was to day 2 an event as a Senior. That happened on the first event, so we made the new goal Worlds. This was achieved with 1000CP. This was Liam's first year as a senior.
Cohen's goal was 3 top cuts with 1 being an IC. He was able to accomplish this and more. This is his last year as a senior and he finished in the Top 16 with 1520CP.
We still have worlds and I included the cost in our numbers. I did not include locals, entry fees, food, tequila or any other cost. I figure we would be doing those things either way. Also a lot of our flights were not economy, but I included actual cost anyway. Some events we had 2 hotel rooms instead of 1.
Cohen is going to win worlds.
Please stop boohooing about short guys gaining muscle mass more easily. Being tall is already a physical advantage. Sorry being short allows us to be cute AND accessibly “big”. I don’t pity you 6’1 man, I just don’t.
Normalize a boring life. Go to bed early, read long books, drink tea, regulate your nervous system, spend time alone, take walks without headphones, eat simple food, shrink your circle, and turn down the noise. Peace will look boring to people addicted to chaos, but that’s the point. Life doesn’t have to be loud to be meaningful, and it doesn’t have to be public to be powerful. Sometimes the magic is in being unreachable, rested, focused, and quietly becoming someone nobody can disturb.
@LeonKelem@fiercepatricks Saying something like, "that's the way we've always done it" signifies a deep-seated resistance to change, fostering complacency and stagnation. We're not highjacking anything and same-sex marriage poses no threat to traditional marriage.
