I have been out of the blogging loop on this blog for about a month. I’ve promised and promised all types of posts, but have often times fell short. I’m hoping to get back to blogging on this site regularly. While I probably won’t be able to post every day, I will be sure to get several posts out each week.
I would like to ask my readers what they want to see me write about. Perhaps a short series, or even just a particular topic — I’m always open to suggestions. Be sure to drop me a line, or better yet, leave a comment on this post telling me what you would like to see me write about.
I’ll be writing several things this weekend and upcoming week, so be sure to stay tuned right here. And thanks to all my my readers who have supported me in the past.
I would imagine it’s something like this. Cartoon made with ToonDoo.com.
So, it’s now 2009! Happy New Year! Upon looking back at 2008, I’ve discovered what a great year it has been, and I hope that 2009 will be just the same. I figured I would share some of my experiences from the year, and give you a little retrospective of my life for the past year.
From ending my high school career, to beginning a hopeful college life, this year has been pack with plenty of amazing feats for me. One such feat was beginning a job with my favorite blog, TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog). While I started last December (December 12 to be exact — here’s my first post), I completed by first year with the blog this past month. I have been able to meet some amazing people through my work at TUAW, and many of these people have quickly become my best online friends: Erica Sadun, Michael Rose, Dave Caolo, Christina Warren, Nik Fletcher, and the list goes on and on.
In May, I finished my high school career. Many people lead me to believe that I might not be the best “college material” … and if I had listened to them, I might not have ended up where I am today. I set out to prove them wrong.
The summer was an exceptional one, because I was able to write for one of my favorite Mac publications, Mac|Life. I wrote almost 30 iPhone application reviews, and 2 pages of tips and tricks for their < ahref="http://corybohon.com/2008/09/yours-truly-in-print/">iPhone Handbook publication. While writing for the iPhone Handbook, I met some awesome people, and I’m grateful for the things that I learned while writing there.
Many of my Twitter followers know that I have been over-obsessing about my grades in college. Well, that over-obsession finally paid off. I am proud to report that I completed my first college semester making a 3.75 GPA, and getting on the dean’s honor list.
Now back to where I am today. For the past two weeks, I have been working on some iPhone applications (which you will hear about in the coming weeks). So, everything would seem to be “looking up” so-to-speak, and I can’t wait to see what the new year brings. So, I hope each and every one of my readers have a very happy new year!
