Happy 2017! It's only been a few days, and I've heard so many people say, "New year, new me!" I would like to say that, but let's be real, I'm gonna be he same person in 2017 that I was in 2016, just another year older. There are a few new things this year though: I graduated college; I'm going into a new career field (sometime); and I have checked a few things off of my bucket list. As for New Year's Resolutions, I don't really have any this year. They are more like goals. Normally I would make it a resolution to be more in tune with God or to try to finally go on a date. But this year, I'm making it my goal to just live life as it goes instead of worrying about the future. I guess it's the same thing as a resolution, but I'm still working towards other goals as I fulfill this goal this year. I will grow closer to God this year continually as I walk with Him. I will travel more whenever I get the money. I will make a change in the world by my actions. I am basicallly setting goals as I live my life from day to day, but I'm not making the same resolutions that I always make, which ultimately never end up working out, and I fail them by day 5.
2016 was a year that was full of ups and downs. It wasn't completely terrible, but it wasn't the best. Here's my 2016 breakdown:
- Student taught in Ireland for a month
- Graduated college
- Passed the two hardest semesters of my life
- Made life-long friendships
- Grew closer to old friends
- Embarrassed myself several times
- Worked a full year at Kohl's
- Got a raise
- Got job offers from schools
- Watched new movies
- Listened to new music/ discovered new bands
- Made closer bonds with old friends
- Started listening to podcasts
- Finished listening to a few podcasts
- Lived in my first house for a full year
- Bought a new car
- Got my first tattoo
- Drifted apart from friends
- Tried new things
- Ate new foods (thank you Sheridan's)
- Made memeories that will last a lifetime
For 2017, I hope that it will bring just as many memories as previous years have.There are things I regret, and things that I would never take back. I want this year to be one for the record books. I want to be able to look back and not regret one thing. I want to make God proud. Make my family proud. Make my friends proud. Make myself proud. I just want to make the most of 2017. I don't know what all that intels yet. Could be: more traveling, more tattoos, more friendships, more jobs, or more things that I can't even fathom. Whatever happens, I want 2017 to be the best year that it can.
I hope you have a happy new year!
Live for God & Love for Music!
