2018

Another year gone.  2017, I felt, was a year of stagnation and disappointment; not only in the larger context of the country, but in my own life as well.  I was so happy for 2016 to be over, but 2017 was bland and uninteresting.  I slipped into a depression that started in mid 2016 that lasted through 2017 and is still going strong, the government is more broken than ever and only works for one month every year, and I'm not financially stable.  That being said, I was accepted into vet school, I got to leave Vivint, and I bought a PS4!

All of the new friends I've made this year have each made a significant impact on my life in one way or another, good or not so good.  All have been actors, actresses, costumers, or musicians.  They, more than anything, have made 2017 worth it.

2018 brings with it hope that I will be able to continue my climb out of depression and into satisfaction.  I am starting a new chapter of my life on February 20; I will be going to Mountain West Veterinary Technology to get my veterinary assistant certificate.  With that will come more money and opportunity and, hopefully, room for growth.

What will 2018 hold?  Who knows?  I certainly know that it will be a year of change for me and my career, and maybe I'll finally finish that book I'm writing!
