I'll keep my points short for major events that happened over the course of this year.

1. January: Hit a deer with my (at the time) new car, while traveling home from Sioux City, IA. I remember that I hadn't even made the first payment on it yet.

2. April: Prepared for and made the move to Windows 7. As part of the migration, I got a new graphics card and 2 new hard drives for storing my data. 500 GB for the boot drive and 1 TB for all my media.

3. May: 2 things - (1) Got to participate in a furry bowling meet in Omaha, NE. That was interesting to take part in. And it was broadcasted on one of Omaha's news stations. And I did spot myself in the video. :) (2) Watched my brother graduate from High School. It was a tearful experience and one that I will never forget. I will continue to cheer him on as he studies for Broadcasting in college at West Texas A&M.

4. June: I celebrated my 10 years as a furry. Ten years ago, I discovered the fandom by accident when I was searching for fanart of the show Road Rovers.

5. July: Witnessed my Grandma getting remarried over the 4th of July weekend. That was an interesting experience. Kinda weird to see your own grandmother get remarried...

6: August: This was a life-changing month for me and it started with a bang...literally. On August 1st, as I was on my way to see a celebrity in Yankton, SD, I was involved in a car wreck. My new car was completely totaled. The front end was smashed and made about 3 ft shorter. I am, to this day, thankful that I am alive. If one detail had been missed, I would have been dead, due to the nature of the impact. Later in the month, I was somewhat given a new vehicle by my other Grandpa.

7: September: I drove all the way to the Kansas State Fair just to experience it again. On my way back, my parents called and informed me that my cat, Odie, had passed away. It was a very tearful experience, yet I knew it was coming. She was so weak and frail from the last time I saw here. At least she passed away peacefully.

8: October: 2 things happened this month - (1) My friend  harvestthehusky moved away down to be with his girlfriend,  amesherla , in Oklahoma. That was another life-changing experience. (2) - I went to my 3rd furry con, which was Oklacon in Watonga, Oklahoma. It was a blast, despite some drama that occurred. It was also my first con to attend with a partial fursuit, which made it an enjoyable experience.

9. November: 2 things - (1) As if having one car wreck was bad enough, I learned from my parents that my brother was involved with a wreck. Just what our family needed. (2) I took my friend  graystone down to meet my parents and see where I came from. Plus it was nice to have someone with me while I drove down. It helped keep me awake.

10. December: Biggest thing that occurred this month was going home for Christmas, and being able to miss a winter storm that was approaching. I got a couple things that I wanted for Christmas (a printer, money, and WTAMU spirit stuff).

As you can see, several things happened to me this past year. Some things good, some things bad. A few life-changing events also happened. One thing that I didn't mention in any of the points was how much my taste in music evolved this year. I rediscovered my love for Synthpop and Industrial music, as well as continued to discover more music in the Dance/Club genre. Perhaps the biggest thing that started to happen to me is the potential change for a new career. I currently do computer work and I don't love doing it anymore. My interests in photography and video have started to bloom, enough that I want that as my career. I'll see what the future holds in 2011 and beyond.
