Another year
I really like that everyone has posted their own little analysis of how their last year went, so heres mine. I guess this last year for me has really been my first real year as an adult. I finally had a REAL job, a new truck, an actual date (several), and a ton of bills. The year started off shakey with some debts due to my new truck and a ton of vet bills but luckily by the end of the year i was able to get back on my feet finnacially. My personal life wasnt extremely exciting, but it was definately better than the last 23. I stopped dressing like an asshole (thanks jason). I had no health problems what-so-ever, and ive been able to get myself into decent shape. As for work....well it sucked, but the reputation ive built should make this next year a lot better. All in all i guess i can say this year was pretty radical.
One thing thats definately a lot different about time as you get older is how fast it goes by. This year seems like it has gone by so quick, but when i look back on things they do seem far behind. I still cant believe im 24, and that soon i wont have a family member within a 400 mile radius. The best thing that happened to me this year by far has been all the great people ive met and the friendships ive built. I cant even explain how much fun "pizza night", "club night", and "monday at Matt&Raes" have been. If those good times continue this next year....well......its gonna be awesome. Another friendship i will be starting the new year with will be with my Dad. The past few years, ive had a bitter relationship with my dad, and hes always just been a "dad". This year i have been able to relate to him a lot more seeing how work has taken such a big role in my life, and how much him and i are alike.
As for this next year? I hate "new years resolutions" but i would really like to end this next year in a meaningful relationship, continue my goal to get in shape, get a couple more tattoos, get a promotion or substantial raise at work, and continue all the friendships ive made this last year. I guess in a year ill come back and read this....then make fun of myself.
