Mic Check - a year in review

"Hello? Is this thing on?"

What's up friends? I'm embarrassed at my blogging capabilities (or lack thereof). It has been over a month and a half since my last entry. It has been reported that the blogosphere has fallen into a deep state of depression due to my prolonged absence. Well folks I'm back. Not with new years resolutions (because I don't do resolutions I just do stuff), but some reflections on 2010. The past year, quite frankly, was a blur. It was like I went to bed January 1, 2010 and woke up on January 1, 2011. Here are some notable things that happened in the year 2010:
  • I was admitted into graduate school (VA Tech & IU)
  • Quit my first professional job at Baylor
  • Moved to the midwest in an awesome three day trip (shots out to Matt Fulmer and the Henkelmanz)
  • Participated in my first Habitat House Build
  • My brother Jason got married (and I missed the wedding)
  • Threw an impromptu bachelor party for Jason (with the four brothers)
  • Spent several hours in the Stay Wired Coffee/Computer Repair Shop
  • Experienced an epiphany in an old kitchen on 309 South Jackson Street, in Montgomery, Alabama  
  • Watched my best friend and his family move away to Asia
  • Attended ASHE for the first time and realized that becoming a scholar is within my reach
  • Played in the snow in both TX and IN
  • Made new friends in Indiana (Carl, Tomika, Eric and Teanna)
  • Discovered I have the best girlfriend in the world
These are just a couple of the major and minor happpenings in 2010. I can't wait to see what's in store for 2011.
