A new year · 5:24am Jan 1st, 2015
Every year, once I was allowed to, New Years day meant that I got to stay up late, eat a bunch of great food, and watch with friends and family as the ball drops. I never made any New Years resolutions (or ones that were serious anyway.) I played along like a little kid did, but obviously I never kept up with my "resolutions."
But this year, everything changed. No, I don't mean that the fire nation attacked. 2014 was probably the biggest year of my life. I finally got a drivers license, I finished my Eagle project, really started learning to play guitar, got to spend three days living the life of a pioneer, I got to travel by plane for my first time, and those are just a few of the amazing experiences I got to be a part of. But I'm sure as you all know, one of the biggest was Homecoming reaching 1000 subscribes.
Looking at it, it seems like such a silly thing. A rather intangible goal to many, but for me it was enormous. I have spent almost two years writing Homecoming and soon it will be drawing to a close. And while I still have much more planned for my little writing stint on Fimfiction, I will always remember Homecoming as the story that told me I could really create something that people love. Even the people that chew me out for my constant miss-spellings or plot holes make me feel amazing. The fact that people have such dedication to a story that was written by a 15 year old kid, it gives me a sense of pride that I can't compare to anything else I have done. It does, and forever will, hold a special place in my heart. Flaws and all.
But as 2014 ends, I can't help but think of what the new year will await me. In just 8 short days, I will be celebrating my 18th birthday. This is the year I graduate. This may even be the year I leave to serve my church. Of course, those are just some of the things I am expecting. I can't speak for the little things that will come up. Who knows, maybe I will have another story that surpasses anything I'v done. Maybe I will find the greatest girl in the whole world. Of course, there will always be hardships. The little things that get in the way, but make the great moments all that much better. I don't know, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I love to be surprised, no matter if it's good or bad. All I can say is Happy New Year, and hope that everyone else can have a great year.
