Here we are, page 3 of 366 in the book of 2012. Seems like 2012 will be read as fast as 2011 was. I am hoping for more excitement and opportunities this year then I have ever expected in the previous ones. There are some kinks I need to work out ASAP but for now, I am not stressing over them. I am actually intrigued by how much things do not bother me anymore since I left Wal-Mart. I use to try to control EVERYTHING, but lately I have had the mentality of, “Except the things you cannot change.” Give me what you will life, I will keep making lemonade until the day I die.
Christmas was the best it had been in years! I was able to spend equal amounts of time with my Dad and Mom, and all my other relatives that are here in Tennessee. Earlier in the month of December, it was difficult to get in the “Christmas spirit,” but I found it eventually. Mid-way through December, I realized that I no longer have traditions. All my traditions that I use to have are gone. Everything is so different in my parent’s/my life, that its just too far gone to carry on the traditions. So next year, I will have to start some new ones with everyone. I think that should be interesting…
I am not as far along with learning Reason 4 as I would like to be, but I know I will get there eventually. I find it difficult trying to figure out how to do everything on the screen. I am more of a hands on learner, so physical keyboards and mixers would help big time, but I guess beggars cannot be choosers. Hopefully when school starts back up I can find someone who can teach me some pointers on how to use Reason. I know they have to exist out there in the world, especially at MTSU.
I am glad that I have moved on from being a dreamer to a doer. I do not regret doing everything I wanted to later in life, because I wanted to enjoy my youth as a normal person. I wanted to make the mistakes that everyone learns from, and grow into a better individual before moving on to the next phase of my life. So I will raise my glass to 2012, and the 12 chapters that will be full of opportunities and accomplishments, and welcome the challenges each day will bring!
