Another year has ended, so naturally that means a new one just started. Duh. For many people, 2016 has been like the worst year ever because of all the tragedies that took place. For some people, 2016 was legit a bad year on a personal level, me included. I can’t say it was entirely bad, there were bright spots for sure, but for the most parts, black and white was the most colorful thing I saw. I’m not going to get all preachy by talking about using negative experiences as lessons and all that stuff. I’ll let the life coaches do that. If I was a sports show, this would be like a “Top 12 Dunks of the Year” montage, only it would be about my life instead of a Larry Nance Jr. highlight reel.
I saw the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus live!!
Yesssss this was held at SM City Seaside in Cebu as part of their Don’t You Fake It 10th anniversary tour. 
Kennan in Bantayan
We did our team building at Bantayan Island. 
I (sorta) went up a mountain
This is in Q-Park in Compostela, Cebu. Right. 
My first hero, Kobe Bryant, retired
Anyone who knows me would know how much I idolized the Mamba since I was a little boy. His retirement on April 13th, 2016 had a profound effect on my emotions that day. 
My first time watching spoken poetry
I’ve been fascinated by poetry since high school, but this this the first time I’ve attended a night of spoken poetry.
Visited The Ruins, Campuestohan and Mambukal (again) in Negros Occidental
First time visiting the Ruins and Campuestohan, third time in Mambukal
More beaching in Bohol
Tried to find Dory.
I bought my PS4
I was vengeance. I was the night. I was Batman.
Runner up for August: my heart was shattered to a million pieces, August 27th, 2016. That’s all you’re getting from me.
Kennan’s Adventures in Camotes Island
Another one of our team building activities, this time in Camotes Island, Cebu. 
Got to hang with friends that I haven’t seen in a long time

Discovered the meaning of “Limitless”
New worldview: I am limitless.
Batman got to meet Wonder Woman
Thank you for helping me out of the darkness. Serendipity?
Not gonna end this by saying something corny about 2016 or 2017. But I will say this, though: it was really good to know I have really good friends.
Thank you to everyone that was there for me in my darkest hour. You are very much appreciated.
