Current Mood: contemplative
This is way overdue, but I couldn't post here for a while - dunno what was up, and I was much HTML-friendlier on Xanga. But either way, this is mostly just for me. Writing has always been my best form of communication. Anyway, like I said, this whole 2006 summary thing is way late, but here it goes:
The best things about 2006:
- I was introduced to a ton of incredibly talented bands/artists, including: McFly, Boys Like Girls, Damien Rice, +44, theAUDITION, just to name a few.
- I was lucky enough to have met Rupert Grint and seen one of the most amazing independent films that year, Driving Lessons.
- Developed an obsession with the movie Closer, @ first because of my love for Damien's "The Blower's Daughter." Evetually, I fell in love with the plot of the movie, as well as Jude Law. Mmmm.
- Became closer to the best friend I lost touch with because of different lifestyles. And am thankful to have been able to re-kindle our 10-year friendship.
- Anticipated turning 21, only to realize it really was not that big of a deal (with the exception of being able to purchase alcohol legally).
- Got the chance of a lifetime to work at both Z100 and MTV, and met some amazing people because of it.
- Realized that working with music is what I was meant to do for the rest of my life. Thanks to none other than Justin Timberlake.
- Threw out all of my judgements on the kind of person Justin was. I used to hate him with a passion, only because of one encounter that turned sour. After meeting him and getting to talk to him, I reazlied he is really an amazing person.
- Became even more obsessed with George Clooney after realizing how much effort he puts into Darfur. And what a talented and funny guy he is overall.
- Got a chance to see Dane Cook's live show in November. WOW.
There's probably a lot more stuff that happened; stuff that I can't think of at the top of my head. But these are really just the most memorable ones, I guess.
