Other than the travelling I did this year, I would say 2013 was one of the worse years of recent times, I haven't had a year go so horribly wrong since 2007. This year did have it's good points, but unfortunatley things happened this year that I did not expect. Things happened that where good, things happened that I didn't want to happen. Some of the things that happened this year have been a bit much for me. In 2014 I plan to wipe the slate clean and try and have a positive outlook again. It is going to be a bit more difficult for me to have a more positive outlook however given that I am now in a position I didn't want to be financially, not to say it's a big deal, it's just undesirable.

The bad things, being in a bit of debt for the first time and losing out on the one girl I truly loved. I had a week back in March too where I had an incredibly negative outlook on everything which was unfortunate. I can't tell if this is a negative thing or not but unexpectadley I've had to come to terms with the fact that I am also bi (which isn't really an invitation for people to start flirting with me either). I have foxalbiazul to thank for helping me through this year and helping me come to terms with myself, he really has kept me going and I love him loads.

But... I can learn from this year too. I've learned some things about myself and I can work to improve on some of these things and work with them too. It may have been a stressful year but good things have happened this year.

I went to Chicago in the summertime this year, it was the best holiday of my life and I thank synthwolf especially for having me at his home and to his parents too for their hospitality. Chicago is a wonderful city to visit and it's been the best holiday of my life, then of course rounding it up with Anthrocon 2013 which was also amazing. I also went to visit kuddlepup and dingoroo on my visit to the USA in November and had a blast there as well. Also visited electropaw while I was there too and had a great time at Midwest Furfest 2012. The furry fandom really keeps me going and I honestly don't know what I would be doing with my social life right now if I didn't have you guys.

In 2014 I won't be able to travel too much until MWFF. I plan on taking a 3 week holiday around it to come see some of you guys again and there could be the possibility of me hanging around for thanksgiving. If I continue to save the way I am saving currently, I should have a sizeable amount of money in the bank by about August time next year and a long trip to the USA would be no problem at all.

Wishing everyone all the best for 2014. Hope everyone's 2013 was a lot better than what mine was.
