1.No Gf :f

I predict that MBP 1.50 / PQ will be released.

I wish I could spend more time on this but I'm afraid I'll run out of time

• Failsafe prediction that is automatically true if I evaluate my prediction accuracy next year: I will see the next Time Capsule!
• I will continue to play MBP 1.50 through at least the summer. Perhaps not much, but at least more than "not at all."
• I will ignore the MBF beta until it is released in full and then I will finally successfully install it and play it and enjoy it and thank Aayrl.
• I will work at least 2 separate jobs before the end of 2014.
• I will go back to school in the fall. Most likely the more northerly one...
• I will finish what I started almost 2 years ago... I ain't gonna bother to predict what will be the result...
• Apple will turn the Apple TV into a gaming console.
• Apple will continue to lose my favor over the course of the year (although hopefully their plans for the Apple TV aren't too horrible).
• Probably the most unlikely: I will, or will come close to, doing something that hopefully I will remember what next year.
• I will have moved out of the place I'm in right now
• I will have used the forums pretty sparingly over the course of 2014.

Meh. I could go on but I'm already being cryptic, so I might as well leave it at that and we'll see how the above went in... 2015!!!!

See y'all next year folks. Happy Marbling!

The un-ending cycle known as life:

I will take at least three college courses this year.
I shall take the ACT and end up setting my expectations higher than I probably should, only to result in disappointment when in reality everything will likely go just fine.
I will get a job, hopefully, maybe.
I will get my permit, hopefully, maybe.

The un-escapable sector of life known as musical endeavors:

"Dawn of Orchestral Ends" will be released (a ten-track grandiose album).
With help from my father, I will start my music business.
I will release at least two demos of Synthetic Symphony 3.
I'll reach 1,000 subscribers on YouTube (this year...this year...)
Depending on how well my income grows, I will plan on purchasing East West Complete Composer's Collection (a variety of top-of-the-line virtual instruments for professional orchestra recording and emulation)

Marble Blast and overall gaming:

I'll end up re-downloading MB and all mods/whatever else associated with it and play again
I'll download 1.5 at some point and play
I'll upgrade my computer to 16GB RAM, at the very least (8GB at the moment)
I'll record at least thirty more videos
My gaming channel will at least hit 100 subscribers.
I will play MC around 25% less than what I played last year, but 75% of what I play will be for recording.
