'''2005''' is the year where [[Chris]] turned 23 years old. It was, in retrospect, Chris's most productive year, largely due to the amount of free time he received upon being expelled from [[Piedmont Virginia Community College|his college]]. He drew four issues of the [[Sonichu (comic)|''Sonichu'' comic]], and put much emphasis and effort into his [[Love Quest]].


Because of his expulsion from [[PVCC]], Chris had a lot of free time on his hands, allowing him to put much more effort into his [[love quest]]. June and July were tumultuous, characterized by a series of fights between Christian and the local authorities. These clashes resulting in a trial, and, according to Chris, severe traumatic scarring.

Chris in 2005, posing with a bootleg Lego set.
Chris, in trouble with the Jerkops.
On 29 March 2005, Anna McLerran tells Chris that his date was a troll.
On 5 April 2005, Chris's letter about Sprung is featured in Nintendo Power.
On 17 June 2005, Chris went to the Anime Mid-Atlantic convention.
On 20 July 2005, Chris was arrested for loitering at his local Target.
On 28 July 2005, Chris is arrested for bad driving.
On 5 November 2005, Chris gets his first e-mail from Megan.

2005 is the year where Chris turned 23 years old. It was, in retrospect, Chris's most productive year, largely due to the amount of free time he received upon being expelled from his college. He drew four issues of the Sonichu comic, and put much emphasis and effort into his Love Quest.

June and July were tumultuous, characterized by a series of fights between Chris and the local authorities, these clashes resulting in a court hearing with the charge being dropped, and, according to Chris, severe traumatic scarring.

This year also saw Chris gaining two of his most renowned friends, Anna McLerran and Megan Schroeder. The first, a Mormon PacSun employee, Chris met while pacing the mall on his Love Quest. The second, an insecure female otaku, he met playing Yu-Gi-Oh! at his local game store. His friendship with the latter would not end happily.
