Just for a fun bit of insight I think it is worth sharing this information. For this most recent New Years celebration I decided to challenge my friends to come up with a list of things that had happened in the last year that were interesting and or what they never would have expected when the year started. I gave them my list which I will give you here and they all sat in near shock. I will also separate and include some for this current year. Only rule is no judgement.

I honestly put this out not to impress or make a name for myself, but more to be honest in what has happened in my life. 2013 was a wild and crazy year, as do most senior/freshman years tend to be. After that year I have nearly traversed and changed into a person who doesn't need such a wild life to have fun. At the time that most of this happened I in no way thought about how it all adds together. I was just living life to the freest of my capabilities, something I wasn't able to do before. Now that it is all said and done I am able to say I have but know that I am content with keeping it there. It is purely in the past.
