Pro-January

So I tried to keep all of my "scroogeness" in this holiday season, which I think that I did a good job considering. From about a week after I got home after finals and stuff, I have been ready for the holidays to be over and me getting back into the swing of things. My year didn't really end on it the way that I planned or the way that I would have liked for it to have ended, but sometimes you dont have control over situations. After spending 9 months with an awesome girl, she decided to break up with me for personal reasons, which made me upset. I think a lot of why I am glad the holidays are over is that now I can look at the calendar and not have to think about what I would be doing or where I would be had we not broken up, so I guess that is the main reason why I am glad that its the New Year. Despite not ending the year on such great a moment as that, I have become closer to some of my good friends that have helped me through this situation and have had a number of opportunities that I am very much looking forward to in the coming year. I started a little less than a month ago blogging for this Atlanta sports website, more specifically about the Atlanta Hawks. I encourage you to go check it out, leave me comments on there or send me an email giving me any pointers or whatnot, because I am always trying to improve as a writer and blogger. Besides that, I will be finishing my graduate classes by the end of June, and then I am going to be looking for an internship so that I can finish my Masters and then get a job in the real world! This past year has been a transition year, which I expect that this coming year will be as well, but I have learned a lot about myself, the real world, and hopefully have become more of a man, spiritually, physically, and emotionally. I hope that this upcoming year is full of fun and hopefully I will make many memories while continuing to work for the prize.

On a completely different note, I encourage you to go and see Gran Turino, starring Clint Eastwood. I got to see a sneak preview of it and minus the language (which is the only "bad" thing about it), it was an excellent movie. It is definitely in my top 5 of all time. It comes out January 9th, so check that out if you can.
