the year in review.

i wrote this on the 30th but didnt put it in place, so i back dated it

Ive been thinking for a few days on what to write as I do on or near my birthday and have decided to write this evening. In the past year I have seen many things change. I have started to become more family oriented and make more frequent stops at home even if it is for a few hours. Relationships have come close to starting but nothing worth really noting. In the past year I have had 3 jobs radio shack, cabela’s and now Acosta. It took almost 2-3 months to get Acosta and it is an amazing job. I am still the same broke ass man as I was last year. Maybe a little wiser as to life experiences. I’ve started new friendships with some and closer friendships with others. I’ve been camping, to Hessel, Chicago, Cleveland, Baltimore on various vacations and new life experiences. I’ve seen tons of red wings games, tigers games, and finally saw my first U of M football game. Ive drank many days away and smoke many of bowls on days. I feel like I’ve started to find myself more as a person which I have lacked. It has taken years but finally I am starting to set and keep goals to live by. People have been taken away for various understood reasons, I feel like this year wasn’t the worst and was better than my 22 or even my 21 year. If that means anything then it is a various improvement. 24 ill finally graduate college, finally take the long cross country trip I want. Finally start my life. So what can I say about the past year? It was good, see you later.
What do I hold out for me this year? Friends, family, love, drinking, and plenty of stories for me to write about.
Happy birthday to me.
the song of my year can be none other than Death Cab For Cutie’s performance from Bonnaroo in 2008 of Transatlanticism.
