I'm born, simple as that. I was born at the littleton hospital, with my mom. I'm currently an only child, and because of that I'm a bit closer to my mom more than anyone else.
-
The stage where I built a sense of basic trust, hopefully.
-
The stage where I learned to do things for myself.
-
I learned how to initiate tasks and get things done.
-
My sister was born. This changed my life as it changes how the structure at home works. It's different having a sister.
-
My first year in elementary school.

I learned what tasks I enjoy doing.
-
My sister Meghan is born. This is a big change as it changes how we act at home with another person to care for.
-
I explored around to find who I am.
-
I graduate High School. This is a big event because it opens all sorts of options for things moving forward.
-
I begin College. I'm going for a degree in Computer Science.
-
I talked with others to find someone I could form a close bond with. (Or didn't and went along being a hermit.)
-
I graduate College. I got my Bachelor's in Computer Science, and search for a job in the related fields.
-
I start my job at a computer firm, designing software for PCs.
-
I win a competition for a small prize. This is signifigant because it shows I've done something I'm proud of.
-
I leave the firm I was at because it was starting to decline. I join another one and get better benefits.
-
I meet a co-worker who I end up dating.
-
I meditate. (Random date) This is signifigant because it helps me feel relaxed and reduces stress.
-
I marry someone I was dating. Signifigant because I live with someone now.
-
I find my purpose for the world and my community.
(Or fail to and feel like I'm worthless.) -
I get laid off, told I just wasn't quite meeting expectations.

I start a new job at Google, even better than the last.
-
I work from home at night and over 4 years earn my Master's degree in Computer Science.

My wife and I have our first child, a daughter named Diane.

Our Second Kid, a boy named Scott, after my dad.

I pick up chess again after years, so i have something to do in my free time.

I retire at an early age, after having raised 2 kids and saving enough to give them both a good start on college.
-
I feel like I've done something meaningful with my life.
-
Me and my wife move into a smaller place, mostly because we don't need much more.
-
I excercise about 3 times a week so I can stay a bit healthy through my later life. It's much harder, but I can still do it.
-
Scott moves us to a retirement home, thinking we're too old.
-
Reflecting back on my life, it was pretty good. I had a wife, two kids, and made a living. I also developed software still used to the day, and even have more than enough income to support us in our late lives.
-
I died. It was unfortunate, but it was going to happen sometime.
