However, the high I'm feeling now pretending, is worth it). So let's see what would I do... nap more. Work less. Travel more. Complain less. Shop more. Stress less.

Fancy bike. Train all day, get massages.<BR/><BR/>BUT I mean, I have to finish school. So, fine. I would finish school. But I'd get a huge nice apartment all to myself. With still said chef. And way nice notebooks, pens... a fancy ass laptop perhaps.<BR/><BR/>Also I would give most of it to my parents. They'd know what to do with it- in a way that's best for all my siblings. <BR/><BR/>I'd invest in real estate. I love house shopping and you can make serious money there. Obvi you need money to make money. So I'd invest here and become a real estate mogul.<BR/><BR/>And donate. A lot to this improv tournament I volunteer with. Breast cancer, yes. Childhood obesity (you know how I feel about obesity).<BR/><BR/>Clearly I could go on forever. Mostly talking about what bike I would buy. So I'll stop now.
