I managed to locate the backed up files on the other computer. Couldn't help but to rewind it a few months back. I looked at it all, and I was just sucked into it.
All this time, I've been wasting my time on what I am weak at. I just wanted to solve a problem, but it seems that I've perpetuated it, and I've done this a few times. So now, all I see is what I've failed to do. I know each person has ups and downs, but I seem to have forgotten all the successes that I've accomplished.
All I wanted to do is to ramble about this. I didn't plan on any conclusion, so I'm cutting this post off right here.
I'll find my own light on this one - hopefully, eventually. If you want to join in and give me a hand, I'll appreciate it.

TSRP and My Map
TSRP History:
Started in mid/late November 2006.
Stopped in mid June 2007
Started playing SA:MP, stopped in late August 2007
Started again in September 2007
Stopped in late December 2007, not long before 2008.
Started again in April 2008
Still playing, but not very active
Map History:
Motivated by Black Market TSRP to map in late December 2006.
All hope was lost as Black Market TSRP went on a different path as I expected.
Started again in September 2007.
Map was too messed up soon enough. Scrapped - completely.
Started another project in mid-November 2007.
In mid November 2007 or early December 2007, the map sunk its way to the bottom of my mind.
In about May or June 2008, Sharpy encourages the project to continue.
Early July 2008, private map testing servers were launched.
NOW:
The map is well on its way.. Been out for a few beta tests, and now it's a bit of re-makes and tweaks until the full thing comes out.

Intro.
You can call me arrow.
Or Arrow.
So, where did that name come from? I'm a very creative person. I thought of the name "ArrowsUnited" when I did not feel any creative at all. It was late August, 04, when Conquer Online was still a decent F2P game.
Then the forum.
I didn't even change my name at all.
It's still ArrowsUnited, even to this day.
Why do I have a blog here?
Someone suggested that I should blog about it, the trip that ended 7 days ago last week. So I'll start off here with the early segment of that trip.
I debated whether or not I should sleep. Behind me was a comfy bed, and in front of me - Facebook, and the "How much rep/nep thread do you have" thread. Downstairs, Wii. But regardless of my decision, I had to keep it down. My dad was going to drive, and he really needed the sleep.
I chose not to sleep, until 2am, I thought it would be nice to slip in 30 minutes of sleep, before the alarm clock, which was set at 2:45 am. It didn't work. My anticipation to sleep had the opposite effect as I expected, so I had a totally sleepless night.
Later on, everything was loaded onto the van. Loading, I thought, was made a bigger hassle than it needed to be. In the van packed a lot of unnecessary things. Golf clubs, and a large amount of food. It was sooo filled up, it left about one third of the rear window clear to see through.
Now let me introduce you to my favourite radio station here in Toronto. Z 103.5. Great music, great announcers, great radio. My favourite part is in the morning, with Scott Fox and the morning show, being DavE Blezard, Ashley Greco, and even though he's really mentioned as part of the crew, Marcello, the assistant who is often heard laughing in the background.
That Monday, they were going to play recordings of the morning show's best moment of the 2008 we've so far reached. When the time came, I switched on the radio, and set it to that one station. Unfortunately enough, I fell asleep. I just slept, and I slept, and I slept until I was waken up.
It was bright enough. It was just almost 8 am, I thought that we were in a gas station, but it wasn't.
Guess what happened.
Because so much unnecessary stuff was packed into the van, the customs didn't really take it lightly. So I had to move aside into the building while they did their thing. See what's the deal with the big stack of junk.
Oh and guess what. I was wearing a t-shirt. I just woke up. I was sitting in a heavily air conditioned building.
It sucked.
