My name is Hoshi Hideyoshi, my first names in j.a.panese mean star and my last name mean excellence, esteem and good luck.I was born on St. Patrick"s Day.
My name and birthdate always seemed inappropriate because I never felt lucky.
I am a 29-year-old miserable, unhealthy, and overworked software developer.
I am like many other peons work for a large corporation.
I specifically work on mobile development at my job as a senior developer.
Many of my coworkers got sick because of the flu, leaving me and a few others most of the work.

Because of a project deadline approaching, I and a few others have to work into the late night.
I stretched my arms and took a glance at the clock and noticed it getting late and decided to pack up and leave.
As I was leaving, I was thinking about my current situation.
I didn"t enjoy what I was doing for a career and regret not pursuing a career as a chef, something I would enjoy.
I had no close friends and felt I should have attempted to get some.
I had no girlfriend or wife waiting for me at home and scorn myself for not reaching out when I had a chance in the past.
I felt trapped, and that it was too late to change anything, that a change now wouldn"t make a big difference.
Just as I got outside my workplace, I noticed a couple holding hands walking across the street.
The couple had smiles on their faces, chatting with each other.
They seem to have a happy, fulfilling and successful life based on their expensive-looking clothing.
I got jealous for a slight moment.
Then I gained an epiphany; My inability to take risks causes me most of my problems.
It prevented me from following my dream.
I wanted to become a world-famous chef but believed that it was unrealistic, and only a few succeeded.
I was not happy because I was lonely.
I never put in the effort to make close friends due to my family situation or get a girlfriend because I feared rejection.
I started crying, heavy with emotions.
I let out a small moan as I wiped my tears and noticed a shooting star in the sky.
I wished upon that star for a second chance, a chance to live happily and fulfil my dream.
I want to become a world-famous chef.
I want close friends that would cheer me up whenever I was down.
I want a s.e.xy girlfriend that would later become my loving wife and the mother of my children.
After it disappeared into the horizon, I stood there a moment before heading home.
Once I got home, I cheered myself up by watching some anime.
After my little anime marathon, I went to bed and hoped the next day would be better.
