2009

When I sat down tonight, I wanted to write about 2008. I would write what I had hoped for it, what had happened, and how I felt about the sum of it all. But the more I looked back on 2008, the more I looked at it was disappointment.

Even though I finished college, performed in more shows than I ever have before, and got paid more than ever to do the things I love, I still feel dissatisfied with myself and what happened over the year. Overall, I feel like I should have just applied myself more.

On one side, I felt like I did everything. On the other, I felt as if I got nowhere.

So, while I try and bury all that is 2008, I move onto 2009.

2009. Where I will find a better job. Where I will continue to read more books. Where will keep expanding my music collection. Where I will continue to perform in local theater. Where I will keep getting paid to do what I love.

It won’t be better immediately, but it will get better one day at a time.
