In 2014 I...

January 06, 2015

2014 – my peak year?

I usually write a reflective-ish post at the end of the year. Last year I wrote a bullet-point list, so I'm gonna do that again. Not definitive, but a little something.

In 2014 I...

- Went in with a bang and came out with a flop.

- Worked for one of my biggest role models.

- Day dreamed more than ever.

- Deleted Tinder and kissed my 1,600 matches goodbye. Whatever, I only ever met four of them.

- Continued to be shameless with selfies.

- Was that guy making out in the movie theatre [after the movie… with the lights on].

- Learned I love being behind a camera and thinking in frames.

- Saw others get what I thought I deserved.

- Used >_< and O_o way too often even though I don't really know what they mean.

- Was more outspoken about being geeeeeyyyyyyyy and stopped hiding.

- Wore that red cardigan too much.

- Realized maybe I'm not as stupid as I thought I was.

- Turned in my Master's project.

- Finalized my group of boos.

- Confessed my like for my crushes. Got shot down by both. 

- Wrote some good sh*t I'm proud of.

- Wondered multiple times if J-School was worth it. TBD.

- Wanted to reach out to old friends. Never did.

- Moved out of the city I love.

- "Haaaattteeeddddd" attention.

- Tried CrossFit, liked it, but was unable to commit fully (time, money…)

- Gave a speech at graduation and didn't become a YouTube fail.

- Was told "You're a great guy, but…" after a few dates. Twice.

- Wondered if, even under my kindness, there's a piece of me that's heartless.

- Said "goodbye" too often and "hi" not enough.

- Found out the first boy I ever dated is married. Wasn't entirely heartbroken.

- Made a big mistake and continue to wait for the lesson it will teach me.

- Saw my best friend get married and thought, "Oh, that's what I'm holding out for."

- Took a big chance. Watched it backfire.

- Decided to take a break from adventuring and seek stability.

- Longed to read some good book. Didn't.

- Met people who reminded me the world can be great.

- Confirmed I'm an East Coast guy, not a West Coast one.

- Learned I can't make everybody happy. Still tried.

- Was more self-conscious than ever.

- Highs and lows, I lived my damn life and that's something not to regret.
