A Year In Review

what: It's 10pm and I have no one to call
when: while listening to "It's 4AM and my lover won't answer"

Wednesday, December 26, 2012. Day after Christmas. 5 more days left in the year. 

Time to wrap up the year 2012. In a completely different place than I was at the beginning of the year. Which is a good thing of course. There were definitely some things that happened that shook my world all the way up. While unwelcome, the shakeup was necessary. Gave me that moment of clarity. Sometimes I'd rather put my rose colored glasses back on but then I remember the importance of living and learning so back to it, I go. Live. Learn. Fall. Get back up. Backslide. Recover. Thank God for cycles, for chances to go back and do better, for redoes. 

What more can I say? 

I'm blessed. 22 and undeservingly blessed. 

Met some great people in 2012. 

And had some even greater times.

A year of fleeting things. And there's nothing wrong with that. Some things are only meant to last for a moment. Reasons, seasons, lifetimes.

This was probably my most financially prosperous year as well. 

My churched out year. 

The year it all paid off.

Graduation year.

My first taste of real life.

New chapter year.

A good year for me. 

And if it wasn't a good one for you, I can only hope that 2013 will be better. 

To 2012, we say farewell. Good bye. We will not be seeing you later.
2013. I'm ready. Are you?

December

I've been thinking to myself about how much I want to write. But really I just like to check on you every so often. You, as in this here blog, not my readers or anything. I don't have those. I write for no audience than myself.

Updates: About that book, haven't opened it since that day. I'm not serious.

Will be home in 12 days. Wrapping up this first semester of graduate school. It's been fun. A breeze, dare I say. But again, it's time to get serious.

I've really been living this life coasting. I'm doing pretty well for myself but sometimes, I feel like I could be doing so much more. For all that I have, I could be that much farther.

But I'm so not together. And then I say, it's okay, I'm young. But then again, time waits for no one. Best to start preparing now when you can than be looking around lost later. And then I remind myself of all I've done and realize I have been preparing thus far thus fine. And that I shant worry and everything will be fine. And I stop being dramatic.

And tune back into Beyonce. Cause it's Friday night and I accomplished things yesterday and earlier today and I can afford to do that.
