Hey guys! I'm just saying that cause idk if people even read this lol. Well sorry I slacked last week. Was busy with Christmas and all haha. Well tomorrow is the final day of 2013. How is that even possible? This was the best year of my life and I just wish I could relive it over and over. I graduated High School and started college. Stuff like that so in this post I'm gonna list my top 5 moments from 2013 so be ready...
5. Meeting Mac Powell (Lead Singer of Third Day)
Yes, I did not get to talk to him much, but he is one of the nicest and most collected people I have ever met. On stage or listening to his music you would never guess, but in the 30 seconds I got to talk to him, he seemed quiet and shy haha. I've actually met a lot of artists that are like this. They are crazy and fun while performing live, but when you talk to them in person, they are quiet. In my opinion, its better that way because they aren't all braggy about how popular they are. I like that.
4. Getting My First Tattoo
Well, let me tell you, I wanted to get one this year, but honestly never thought I would get one. The ONLY reason I have one is because I won a $100 gift card from Devoted Ink in Temecula, California and I think I will go there whenever I have money for a second tat. They did an amazing job and their rates are pretty good. If you live in the Lake Elsinore area, I HIGHLY suggest going their. Rob and Matt are the two tattooists there and I linked to the site so you can see some of their work. They even just hired a new piercer if you want any new piercings.
3. Working At the Fair
Let me say, it was so fun to work at a fair and is truly a unique experience and I think everyone should try it out because, not only is it fun, it is also a really good place to gain work experience. One of my favorite parts about working there was (of course knowing me) was meeting new friends. Most of the people I worked around were really cool people and I loved having conversations with them. The other awesome part about working there was all the bands/artists I got to see live. Which leads right into the next favorite part of 2013.
2. Seeing Train Live
Now this was always one of my dreams and when I found out that I could do it for only $19, I couldn't refuse. I'm glad I paid that money because these days, you really can't see a mainstream artist for that much, and I was pretty close for that cheap. AND it was the best band I have ever seen live, so it was just perfect, considering they also played a 2-hour set, including some old favorites like "Meet Virginia" and my personal favorite "Drops of Jupiter." I highly suggest seeing them live if you ever get a chance.
1. GradNite at Disneyland
Ever since I found out Disneyland did this (which was about 7th grade) I have looked forward to it. Back then, I would have never guessed that I would be going to it with a bunch of people I never met until that actual night. And never did I think that I would have the best night of my life with them either. There were dance parties (which I loved), exclusive merch, exclusive World of Color, etc. It was all amazing. One of my favorite parts was getting to know all of them and going on all the rides with them. Another awesome part was ending the night at Ihop and getting Tiramisu pancakes.
2013 was the best year of my life and those 5 favorite parts doesn't even shed a light on how awesome a year it was. God put made it such an awesome year because He felt it was a good time for me to have a good year, and I'm glad. I made more friends than I thought possible too, which was really humbling. I hope you all had a good 2013, too and may God bless your 2014.
Until Next Time, Alex
