Well, there it went. 2013 is dead and gone and thus arises 2014.
It's been a while since I posted. Crazy crazy busy.
The end of the school year flew by. Thanksgiving then finals just took it all out of me. My senior speech happened... Sometimes I laugh and remember I finished it. I got an A- (or a Pass) which I am COMPLETELY happy about. I am so grateful that is over with. It was killing me.
Christmas has come and gone as well! So many family things and parties and seeing people I have been completely sucked into everything and have barely had a chance to catch my breath. I was about to say I finally have a chance but I have family coming in on Friday for a week! It doesn't end!
This post is more of a look back at 2013 though so let's see about that.
2013. I turned 21. I posted here that I am bisexual. I kept on trucking. I played video games. I started a podcast with my friend Cody. I loved. Giant Bomb lost a cofounder. Emotions everywhere. It was just a pretty good year.
I gained job security for after college. I had a great time at my friend's cabin. The PlayStation 4 came out. I learned a lot in school. I've made new friends. I've relaxed around others. I edited my book twice and prepared a query letter to send out! This weekend will probably be research/get letters ready weekend.
I think I've become more me.
I am trying to be more honest and open about who I am. It's a process but I am getting there. Before I felt the need to censor myself in front of people or try and not be vocal about the things I care about; but, as time goes on, I am doing that less often than I used to. Trying to be me.
2013 was a pretty decent year. I enjoyed it. It had the number 13 in it so I had to enjoy it. Well I didn't have to but I did. It was a fun year. I am looking forward to 2014 more I think though. I am GRADUATING. Yes, that needed all caps. I will graduate school and get on into the real world.
This semester is going to be a challenge I think. Not hard classes probably, but mental preparation for the real world. Seeing my friends less and getting on with my life and all that.
It's the adventure that awaits me. I am very much looking forward to it. If any of you are where I am I hope you are looking forward to it as well. It's exciting. Let's get excited!
