I live in Irvine, California, a mere 20 minutes drive from the hotel of the OSL finals party. I've been following the pro-scene since 2007, and have been on TL for almost as long (the post-count lies). However, being a 16 year old without a license, I have no mean of going there. It agonizes me to watch everyone on Chill's stream, as it feels so close and yet so far. I have never imagined being at an event with progamers and TL.net members but now that one is happening so close by, I can't go.
Basically, this blog is a frustration/vent/ramble and a oh pity me pity me attempt.

wow this sucks hard

can't you try to contact someone with a license to drive you there ?
SonuvBob: Yes, the majority of TL is college-aged, and thus clearly stupid.

you could have probably taken buses, had a friend/family member drive you, or even shelled out a little cash to get a cab.

stop whining. your thread title is appropriate, but the content should have just been "my spine"

Oh, my name was created in 2002 under an entirely different reason, but yes, it does.

I think if I had realized the proximity of the event to my house earlier I might have been able to go, but now that it's 11pm =.="

At this point what's to blame is my lack of awareness. Had I realized this was taking place in Anaheim a few hours earlier, I could have went.

When there's a will, there's a way

Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Ugh, I think I can possibly convince my parents, but they don't like the idea of me being alone there so late 0.0
And none of my friends are very enthusiastic about this.

Are your parents asleep?
Just sneak out.

Dude fuck your parents. Do what the fuck you want, seriously man it's about time you man up.
I've been rebelling against them a lot and it feels great.

Goddamn, I think it's pretty much hopeless right now, and I'm too pissed off about it. My dad doesn't give a shit about the StarCraft community or whatever so all of the reasons I have fall apart.

I tried saying that I'll probably never get an opportunity like this again, and I really want to meet all of the people on the site/progamers, but they just say oh it's dangerous it's late and you won't get any sleep etc etc. And my dad doesn't give a shit what my hobbies are.
