2016 was fantastic if you are at all interested in outer space: Vertical rocket landings, gravitational waves, Juno at Jupiter, ExoMars, a 10th planet, planets around the nearest star, ice deposits on Mars, and Earth has two freakin' moons!

The focus I put on my mental and emotional health in 2015 has started to pay off. I started saving money better. I got into NXT. I saw many good movies. I started drawing with pencils and paper again.

Conor McGregor was awesome. The Cubs won. The City of Edmonton restored my faith in humanity.

Went to my third Wrestle Mania.
Went to my third Comic Con, and got a photo with, and autograph from Kevin Conroy.
Visited, and got good photos of, Florida and Arkansas. Speaking of Arkansas, a short I helped a friend with was screened at a film festival.
Captain America: Civil War was fantastic, and Doctor Strange was enjoyable too.
Luke Cage and season two of Daredevil.
Pokemon Sun & Moon came out, and Fire Emblem Fates was released internationally.

Giant Pandas and Manatees are no longer considered endangered. (In the good way) Wild Tiger numbers are up for the first time in 100 years. Measels has been eradicated in the Americas.

I'm alive, my close family is healthy. I have a roof over my head and food on my plate.
Sometimes the simple things are best.

Got a great new job working for the government. allowed me to leave the horrible shit-show of a job I had before that.
because of said new job I reconnected with an old friend and made some new ones.
had a brief fling (that I'm glad is over) but it was good for me emotionally.
lots of awesome music came out this year. new CDs from Alcest, Ulcerate and an absolute killer of an album from Nails.
got into horror fiction in a big way this year. discovered the Splatterpunk movement wasn't anywhere near as devoid of artistry as I'd been led to believe by critics and read Thomas Ligotti for the first time, too.
saw more good movies than bad both at the theater and on Netflix, which is always nice.

Finally moved out of my Mum's house that was a big step, nice to have the freedom.
Apart from that got to see Deftones live for the first time, went to Japan, China & Ireland for the first time as well. Also taken up Poker and have met a few friends through that.
Entertainment wise it's hard to look past what Leicester City did really. Amazing albums from Bowie, Deftones, Vektor, Architects, The 1975 etc. Metallica released a half decent album with some absolute bangers on it which were nice. Cubs won the World Series. Chris Jericho & Matt Hardy both had career resurgences. My favourite wrestler Dean Ambrose won the WWE Title finally.
AJ Styles in general. What a year he's had.
Film wise really enjoyed Deadpool & Suicide Squad, the new Bourne film was great too.
And the Olympics again were an absolute joy for 2 weeks.

Had an awesome holiday in Barcelona, went to the 6-1 game where Messi passed a penalty. Hopefully I'll be boring people about it for decades to come.
