Dude, I’m getting so much done and learning so much while being unemployed.

It feels like my life has started ever since I graduated college in December.

Keep rockin man.

Great list Srinirao. The theme I see is you never let external circumstances keep you from living a life that had meaning to you. That’s a good lesson for all of us, whether we’re employed or not.

Surfed, got color, got into shape, read, played videos games, kicked it some with the parents…sounds pretty awesome.

@Eric: I’m definitely looking forward to getting some positive cash flow going.

@Armen: I’m glad you found it useful. I actually was shocked at the amount commentary this post generated. Regarding, breaking two surfboards, that’s why I love Costco. I was lucky enough to return them with no questions asked and get replacements.

Hey Srinivas.

This is the kind of set of items we are glad to see. Anyone looking can take a note from this. When you do many good things, point them out like this to serve as reflection on what you have done, a showing to those who are interesting in knowing, and as an example for others to do the same.

The items on this list are all positive and growth-oriented. Breaking two surfboards might not exactly be, but it is entertaining.

We look forward to more Srinivas~

Great list! You really did take advantage of your time off. And, congratulations on your new job! I’m sure it will be good to have some positive cash flow for a change. I know it was for me when I started working after 3 months of unemployment. I do still yearn for the freedom I enjoyed while unemployed though.

Thanks Lisis. It’s amazing how many people stress out and mope around. I actually did that in the past when I graduated from undergrad and promised myself I wouldn’t let it come to that.
