Year In Review- Part 1

Hey there.

It's a new year, 2006 and after taking some time off from the blog, I figured it's time to get back here and recap a bit of what went down for me last year and look ahead what I have planned in 2006.

-- The biggest thing that happened to me last year, without a doubt, was going to Indianapolis last April for the Star Wars Celebration 3 convention. I hadn't been to a convention like that in years, so it was good to check that out with my best friend Rob, who asked me to tag along. Not only was it a great event for me to check out, but it also gave me the chance to fly on an airplane for the first time ever. Pretty cool. The only downside was the unseasonably cold weather, the long-as-hell lines and the total botch-up job by the organizers to get any souvenirs from the event. But aside from that, it was a great experience and one I'd never forget.

My plan for 2006 is to go out of town for another convention. I'd love to check out the Comic Con in San Diego, but it's more likely that I'll be heading out to Chicago for the Wizard World convention in August. I tried to go last year, but financially it was a no go. This year, however, I'm going to try my best to go. And hey, if Rob talks me into going into another huge event, then I'll be there as well.

--2005 was also the year I got to meet a lot of people online. And I mean a lot of people. Guys like Ron, Chase, John, Sam (from England-my first online bud from outside North America), Jim (from the Werewolf Cafe) James, Tristan, Cody, Thomas, Jeff, Mike, Joe and Paul. It's been cool and great knowing you all. Hope our friendships will continue to strengthen in the months to come.

--I also got to work on some of my projects, like my werewolf novel, my short film scripts(which I'll have updates on at their respective blogs) and my short stories. One of which, has been posted on the site. I plan to add a whole lot more in 2006.

That's it for now. On my next blog entry, I'll tell you what I remember movie and TV wise from 2005 and state a couple of major goals that I hope to have done this year.

Blog at you later.
