December To Remember: 2011 Review - The Prequel


Dear Friends,

One week from today will be Christmas. After that is the beginning of 2012. I waited until now to start my reflection of 2011. Over the next few weeks leading to 2012, I will basically review not only my life in 2011 but also some popular events that occurred. I call December’s blogs December To Remember and January’s blogs are New Year Revolution. This is going to be a real December To Remember. One more thing, even though I have bitched all year, these blogs will shock you. This entry will serve as the prequel to what’s to come.


First of all, I could describe the first four months of 2011 as the road to me finally graduating from college. I still can remember all the shit I had to deal with just to get to April 30th, 2011. I was happy to finally finish school and be proud that I have a degree of some type. If you read some of my blog up to graduation you know that was my best moment since June 10th, 1996. Having that sense of accomplishment was something to get me over my depression and have some worth in my life.

After Graduation, what’s to come was the fall that I have been avoiding. I use to tempt fate and challenge karma. My time was up on May 18th, 2011. That was the day that karma cashed in and took time from me. I spent over 30 days away from the world and away from the life I was going to have after graduation. Missing time like that did affect me because I hated missing things. If you read my blogs when I came back online in June, you know that I lost time, money, and faith.

This summer was riddled with both happiness and sadness. I had to deal with my accuser at work. I had to be homeless again. I though I found love and was on the road to redemption. I was blessed to see some events like concerts, playoff baseball, monday night football in detroit, and more. My summer and fall made me forget about the spring and winter but the overall damage of those events still linger.

Finally, there is what’s to come in my life and also for 2012. I recently stopped dating to find myself and also heal from being hurt and fucked over. I also think this will appease karma because she’s not done trying to get me. So I feel that if I let go of love and finding someone, I could get some things done and some soul searching accomplished. Basically, make a map for my life after 2012. Well that’s all for now but there is more to come because there is a lot to cover in the weeks left in 2011.
