I Don't Do Diaries

The med clone brains insisted. They tell me that recording my thoughts like this somehow helps with the process. I've already died a couple of times, and I hate dropping into a new clone. I get violently ill for days afterwards. They assure me the newest clones don't have that issue, just so long as I write in my little diary here. Yeah, right. It isn't like these things will ever come with any sort of money back guarantee. Well, whatever, maybe it'll help, here goes.

Licensed to Fly

I got my pilot license in June of 2012. My family wasn't too happy about it. I was supposed to become a minister, like my father before me. My head was always in and above the clouds, though.

Deepari Days

The Amarr higher ups shipped me off to Deepari before I knew what was happening. I was doubting my path, at least until I left station for the first time. It was in that moment I realized I was doing what I was born to do.

Tutorial Island

I got straight to work. The career agents were most helpful and mostly gentle. Although, I do recall the advanced battle career agent being a bit rough around the edges.

Market Minow

I was broke, relatively. This bothered me greatly. Whenever I'd link up with my family back home, my father made little effort to hide his disgust for my "muck and mire" living conditions.

It was after one of these nastier family link ups that I decided, then and there, I was going to make it. Space was going to have to wait for a little while. I'd show my father.

The First Wandering

Josh considered various paths.

Research, Really?

Research wait times in and around Deepari were horrific.

Manufacturing, Meh

For reasons partially relating to the research issue previously mentioned, Josh decided to delay any manufacturing adventures.

Tacklin' Trade

Josh clumsily invaded the regional "Infrared S" markets. Not long after that, he struck oil with skill book trading.

Massive Missions and First Contact with EUNI

After cashing in for a bit on skill books, Josh decided to ramp up into the Blood Stained Stars epic arc. Simultaneously, he started to research corporations in earnest.

Yes, They Will Do Nicely

Josh first caught wind of the galaxy-renowned Eve University.

Mission Madness

Josh slogged through more of the endless, epic arc.

Back to School!

Josh applied for and was accepted into Eve University!

Fleets For All

Josh signed up for many fleets and relocated to Aldrat.

New World Noobs on Patrol

His first fleet operation was a NWNoP run.

Low Sec Camp

Not long after that, Josh ventured forth into a couple of LSC fleets.

Blood Stained Stars

All the while, Josh set aside time to wrap up the Sisters of Eve BSS arc.

The Second Wandering

Still drunk from fleet victories, Josh made it a goal to study deeply the arts of ship to ship combat.

Solitude

Josh knew he'd need much cash for future endeavors. So, he moved to harness the plentiful resources of Solitude.

Skill Books Extraordinaire

Not content with the "limited" markets of Solitude, Josh set out to bring all of contiguous empire space under his skill book business sway.

Reconciliation and Consolidation

Frustrated with excessive travel times, Josh mercilessly contracted his business domain to within Gallente space only. Many workers were fired as Josh's offices in the other empires were either closed or abandoned outright.
