2006: a year in review
so 2006 was a weird year, i didnt hit mostly any of my goals. that's not to say it was a "bad" year, i guess just more of an off year.
well the whole thing started with change, i had done the same job next to the same friend for like 3 years, and within the span of a few weeks Erik left hoshino and i got moved into the repair room. for me it took alot of getting used to, and some time to get comfortable. but it was still fun, i got to work with a crazy variety of personalities in 2006. i guess it's helped to broaden my outlook.
with extreme changes in one part of life, another part found someone very familiar. in february Krisey and i were up to our old tricks again, ruining lives and breaking hearts, that sort of thing. at the time i felt like i did everything i could to keep it together, but of course in hindsight theres so many things i could have done better and alot of things i shouldn't have done. i guess it's best to just try and learn.
i didn't move out of my parent's house yet, i'm shooting for Jan 2008! i think kicking it off with an Eagles superbowl party would be a good plan.
i didnt finish the cello-guitar yet :'(
this year i made the conscious decision to switch my focus from ZeeDocta to Nop73hs, but you know how things go. the demo took entirely too long to finish... a familiar pain. not to be overlooked, there just wasn't much interest in or outside my group of friends. i entered into both Bowsh Records battle of the bands and didnt get nowheres. shows started off pretty good but attendance got worse and worse and worse and worse... yeah kinda dissapointing.
i have heard people say that when you get older you lose motivation, i didnt think that would happen but these past few months maybe a dose of reality is setting in, maybe i just need to change my focus again?
2007 will be a better year, 2006 was just too weird, too jumbled up. i had alot of great times in 06, but i had higher expectations for myself and basically i didnt live up to them.
goals for 2007? save money and move out early 2008! switch musical efforts to playing guitar in Radick. try to keep in mind the reasons why i started doing certain things in the first place. treat people better, pray more, cut down on drinking, and lose some weight. there you go 2007 is gonna be better!
