45) Farewell, 2016

​Closing in on the year.

Here is my highlight list of 2016 (Chronological order from top to bottom. Many blog posts that I have written about are linked below as well.):

• ​Spent New Year's Day with my Grandpa (I wrote a blog post about him, "My Relationship with Grandpa.")
• Watched Kobe Bryant's last basketball game live before he retired. (Soon-to-be blog post)
• Met my close friend's favorite high school teacher. (Possibly soon-to-be blog post)
• Strongest body ever (by consistently going to gym)
• Watched stand-up comedy live for the 1st time
• Found a great barber
• Experienced a 2-week Europe trip
• Went to EDC Las Vegas for my 2nd straight year (and will be my last)
• Started on a blog, like this one
• Watched a free Air Supply live in concert
• Assisted in coaching boys' high school team tennis
• Went to Disneyland and Universal Studios Hollywood with close friend and his cousins
• Became a tennis coach at an academy
• Found a place in Sunnyvale
• Watched Kanye West live in concert for the 1st time
• Went to a very Christmas decorated and lighted home

I will continue to go strong starting January 1, 2017. Life Coach & YouTuber, Ralph Smart, said, "Nothing will change in 2017 unless you're willing to step out of your comfort zone and change the way you think and live your life."

2016 is almost over. Wrapping up the year. Enjoying and smiling for a new year to come. (Moving forward.) Photo shown below. (Background of Golden Gate Bridge.)

As I was being shortly recorded, I improvised at the top of my head on my main highlights of this year. The video shown below was clearly unedited.

(Before you push play, be aware of the loud windy noise in the background. Sorry about that. Video was only captured from iPhone 6.)
