I've decided to pull a 2009-Jordan (lovelikeapolaroid.blogspot.com) and attempt taking a Picture of the Day in 2012... another buddy of mine did this on Facebook too in 2011, so I need to ready to start tomorrow. I have my phone on me all the time anyway, and I like using Instagram, so that's likely where they'll be.
But I did want to do a quick photo review of the past year in snapshots, so here goes...
(Note: I really didn't take much pics throughout year, or have pics taken with me in them, haha... So some months I struggled to find a pic in my library, or I had to pic just one in eventful months like August where Chicago easily trumps seeing Adele in concert.)
JANUARY - Completed leg 1 of the Triple Crown series of San Diego half marathons by running in the Carlsbad Half
FEBRUARY - A shot from Sunset Beach in Orange County, during a trip when I came to visit Sarah and we went to see Hair
MARCH - ...uhhhhh I bought a new computer. :P But I do love this thing!
APRIL - Completed the 2nd leg of the Triple Crown in La Jolla... and totally kicked that Torrey Pines hill's ass. (You try running it and let me know how it goes.)
MAY - Was in my first musical production and had the support of friends and coworkers coming to see me
JUNE - My parents enabled me to celebrate my birthday at work by bringing in lunch for me and my awesome coworkers
JULY - My cousin and his longtime girlfriend tie the knot in a beautiful ceremony (that I had the honor of officiating)
AUGUST - Family vacation to Chicago! My favorite snapshot of just a part of the gorgeous skyline. San Diego's got nothing on you, Bean Town.
SEPTEMBER - Hiked the long trail at Mt. Woodson and got to the Potato Chip cliff!
OCTOBER - New York City trip! Checking out the amazing views from the Top of the Rock observatory with my friend Suzy
NOVEMBER - Seeing Jason Mraz in a special acoustic intimate setting was a nice way to end the Thanksgiving weekend
DECEMBER - Christmas Day at the San Diego Zoo with my cousin and the cutest little 10 month old in the history of ever who even though she was tired, whenever I'd give her a goofy grin, she'd give me this huge smile back with both her mouth and eyes, and those smiles were like a gift in itself that day...
So there's 2011! Cheers to more pictures and memories in 2012...
