Its already been ten years since I graduated high school. Yep, tomorrow will be my ten year anniversary since the day my high school diploma was handed to me. Time have gone by so quickly since that day, that I like to look back at my own life and the technology that was avaliable then and what it is now.

In June 1999, there was no myspace, facebook, youtube, wikipedia, ipod, iphone, core 2 duo, etc... Virtually all the major websites including community based websites isuch as Xfire did not exist, it wasnt even in concept at that time. Yahoo was king and leader of all the search engines and really for me it was the place for me to be. Google had just been founded and it was only a simple website with no gmail, google earth or anything else that fantasy. Penitum II and K6-2 was the main stream technology at the time, while the Pentium III had just came out one month prior. I was still using 56k dial up and heard of cable internet but it was very very expensive and there was no reason to get anything faster because of nothing large to download. Playstation, Nintendo 64 and Saga Saturn were the consoles to get, while Xbox was a complete unknown and it was unthinkable that Microsoft would get into the console business since they were into the PC. Cell phones were just simple phones and not mp3 players, camera, with nice flashy color screens and no text messaging. DVD players had just came on the scene, while VHS still had a large audience. Its pretty easy to see that alot of the new technology was barely or did not exist at all at the time I graduated. So many things to the internet as well have been added to make this place more entertaining.

Looking back at my own life, which isnt all that exciting other then things around me have happened. I am not a very socially active person, so much of my time is at home watching tv, websites like gamespot and playing games. Went through two other jobs before settling down on being a janitor for the past seven years with the same employer. There are alot of people I have met and talk to through my ten years, either at work and the internet, that I have had the pleasure of talking to. My sister have gotten married to a fantastic brother in law and soon I will be an uncle. The car I was driving during the time I graduated was a 86 Mazda 626 that I bought for $2200, now I drive a fairly brand new Honda Accord coupe. My life isnt all that fruitful as to someone who would say they had climbed a mountain and swam the english channel. Its all really simple.

This blog is ment to reflect back in the past ten years of my life after high school. It have been a fun, enjoyable adventure and I hope it would continue another ten years.
