Year of Michael (a working title)

Once again it's out with the old and in with the new. 2015 is here to replace 2014 and all the good and bad that went with it. A new year comes with he hopes and allure of a fresh start, new possibilities and a new beginning.
It's cliché to say "a new year, a new me" but I have a feeling that it's gonna be a good one. I'm not sure why but I have a good feeling about this.
2015 will be the year of Michael, as previously stated its a working title, but I have high hopes for an amazing year ahead. No unnecessary drama. It's gonna be a good one.




The year started similarly to how it ended. Quite well, I think. Met some new people and friends, caught up with some old ones. It's been good. Continuing the theme of last year and my eternal optimism, no-complaining November and general positive living.


It was Audrey Hepburn that said:

"Nothing is impossible. The word itself says 'I'm possible'"

The quote makes me think, believe, hope that after all this will be the year of Michael (working title). With enough positive thought and hope one can achieve anything and that will be the theme for this year. I believe in me and I hope the world will too.

As hard as I try to believe things like this I still can't help but wonder if I'm being stupid!? Attitudes have the power to influence but do they really have that much power at the end of the day?

I ended the previous university year on a really bad note. Lets just say I may have left a large portion of my dignity in Friars. Not my finest moment. Not at all.

It is my hope that this year, 2015, the year of Michael, I will be able to make some changes. Good life changes, good life choices. I realise they all boil down to my actions and it is something I need to change. These is no blaming anybody or anything else. This is all on me. It is my task, duty, responsibility, my hope that I can change it.

The saying goes that a tiger cannot change his stripes but I hope that this is not true.

So this will be the year of Michael. 2015. Lets make it a good one. I know most people start the year with all the most positive intentions and resolutions but they usually fail within the first week or two. I realise that if I deem a change needs to be made in my life it should be mate when I want it to be made, not at the start if a new calendar year. Once again, this is all on me. I need to make the difference.
