December, Year-in-Review, and 2014 Resolutions

December Summary:
I was all over the place and it went by so fast (Bangkok, Hong Kong, Vegas, home, Pennsylvania, and now Detroit).
Bangkok- Protests, sweet hostel, good books
Hong Kong- Really cool place, lots of wandering around, good books
Vegas- Hung out and relaxed, had fun, some interesting live poker
Home, PA, and Detroit- Would not trade my family for any other
No online poker all month and I did not put a lot of work in off the tables either (I am refreshed though).

Year-in-Review (2013):
Poker- The biggest take away from my first year doing this full time is that I think I now see many things more as they really are.
- My "in-game", play, poker theory, or whatever you want to call it is worse (both absolutely and relative to the field) than I believed.
- Just how this whole poker thing works. Both on a macro/poker economy level and the game's e(a?)ffect on me.
I was about to say that my approach and has fundamentally changed, but that really isn't true (insert next post).
Life- I learned that people are so much more important than places. The two are not even on the same level. One is infinitely more important that the other.
I still have not personally met anyone who I can say I think is at there core bad or evil (and trust me I'm looking)....maybe next year.

Resolutions:
I think my resolutions last year were
1-Brush teeth twice a day
2- Stop taking myself so seriously
3- Have fun

A few comments and only a few slight changes for 2014:
1- I did pretty good if say so myself. Lets keep it going.
#1- Brush twice a day + floss a few times a week + go to dentist at least once
2- I am keeping this one like it is (And may I recommend this one to you too).
#2- Stop taking myself so seriously
3- This one is too vague. I like the Jimmy V idea that a day is complete when you laugh, think and cry....so
#3- Laugh, Think, and Cry a lot (in the same day) 
Some Holiday Shots (cool new camera!):
