2012 was one of those years that had incredible moments and some of the worst times of my entire life, however, life goes on and all we can do is learn from the bad and hug the good. So, here goes!

I started off the year by making good new Mexican friends in Austin (sadly a rarity for me).

Shot my first short film in 35mm film. 

Dated a nice girl.

Worked South by South West, getting to watch a bunch of movies and making great connections as well as friends.

Directed Mexican-heavy short films to show my love for me country.

Managed to make a great short film praised by the professor who first told me not to make it.

Got elected as president of the University Filmmakers Alliance (UFA), one of my favorite activities in college.

Survived the Community hiatus.

Went to New York!

Met Patrick J. Adams!

I mean, there's just so much New York to add to this list... Statue of Liberty, Rockefeller Building, Empire State, hanging out with Austin friends in New York...

Grew my hair longest than it had ever been.

Cut my hair the shortest that it had been in years.

Went to Monterrey for the first time.

Directed a film with a studio setup. 

Learned who my real friends are.

Worked the Austin Film Festival and met some of the friends that would keep me alive during the semester.

Met Damon Lindelof!

Got featured in the Daily Texan for being the president of UFA.

Got incredibly obsessed with Community... I saw every season thrice...

Got to be a model for a vampire photo-set for the Daily Texan.

Got cast to play a homeless man in a feature film.

Freaking dyed my hair white... well, actually freakishly blonde. (Semi-accomplished a dream I've had for over ten years).

Dyed my hair black... well, actually blue steel.

Shaved my head, something I've been wanting to do for years. Although it was really weird...

Saw some of my best friends graduate from college, which was excitingly terrifying. 

I got a job offer from the IMAX theaters of Austin.

And now I'm getting ready to road trip to LA to CommuniCon. But that'll be a major part of my 2013 list.
