Is it already the 31st of December? Seems like just yesterday I was welcoming the year 2013. Typically, the year seemed to just be one of those years that just go by under the radar as nothing much special but it would later bring in some pretty dope moments of its own. As far as sports go it was a bittersweet. FC Barcelona would win la liga but faltered an embarrassing defeat in the semi finals of champions. But they wouldn't end the season on a wimper after announcing in May the purchase of Neymar whose been reaping the benefits ever since. We also got to see how the Brazil national team will look for the coming year's FIFA WORLD CUP, and the diagnosis is a threat to ever participating. Looking forward to see Brazil win it on home soil. Pac man come back was great to see after 2012 being such a disappointing year. Anderson Silva Forever....is all I'll say. Super bowl...who the hell cares. everyone forgets the next year anyway
Personally for me the year started like any other . Nothing special to write home about. But around spring, things didn't seem so bad. Made some new friends at the sake of losing one. I made my first video (editing, writing, and reporting) and made an ever better one in May. This would also get me some connections with some really cool people like Tara Negron who was the head of the Latino Student Organization and Dr.Raymond Tutu who is a global societies instructor and travels the world for research (dream job).
Summer didnt turn out to be what I wanted at all. Things were supposed to happen that never did and my credibility suffered for that. Wildwood tournament was somewhat a success even tho we didnt take the trophy home, we were the most feared team on the beach. BEWARE OF THE PUPPY BROTHERS!
Enter Fall, I finally got the 'Arctic' monkey off my back by actually seeing the perform in Philly at the Mann center. This is probably THEE best moment of the year and my life. It was awsome to have Alex Turner play a song at YOUR request and being surrounded by people who know all the songs too. Theres no better atmosphere. A week after the concert I began working at Buffalo Wild wings thanks to the help of a good friend. To this day (3 1/2 months later) Im still meeting some cool people, and also ones that I was better off not knowing.
Winter! AKA last week. Awsome Christmas! Got All the stuff I wanted, and now have a good foot in the door of pursuing my career as a writter. I can now produce my own videos,music, and photos for my writing. Count on '14 being the year that I get a big break.
In retrospect, the biggest take away I have for the year is that you have to fight high and low to get what you want. Even if you already have it, keep fighting. There always people that want what you got and will do anything to get it like jackals on a carcass. Plant your feet in the ground and break for no one. People arent as good as you take them to be all the time and often you're gonna have to be a dick. But so what! Bring it '14!
PS I know I havent wrote much since last semester but we'll work on that.
