Ranking The TV We Watched in 2015
Growing up I was always a movie guy. I spent much of my summers at the movies seeing as many films as I possibly could. As I've gotten older I've migrated more to television. As you hear a lot now this is the golden era of television and judging by the list of shows we watched this year that's absolutely the case. There wasn't one bad show we watched this year (well maybe UnREAL) because if there was there were ten other shows we could watch. So without further ado here is my personal rank of the 17 full seasons of television we watched.
Recap Goals of 2015 - How Did I Do?
I've seen a lot of stats thrown around about people and their new years resolutions. I think most consistently you hear that 80-90% of resolutions fail. In an effort to hold myself accountable and push myself even further in 2016 I wanted to take some time and look back on the goals I set out for myself in 2015 (written a year ago) and see how I did.
My Top 5 Games of 2015
Sadly 2015 was probably the least amount of games I played in a long time. With two moves and just less games that appealed to me personally I just didn't put in the hours on my consoles like I have in the past couple of years. That's not to say I've at all fallen out of love with gaming or that I've grown bored of it. The games of 2015 were spectacular, in fact it might have been one of the best years in recent history. Sadly though the majority of those amazing games were in genres that I don't love.
2015: My Year in Numbers
For seven years of my life I was an analyst. I spent much of my 40-hour work week running numbers in Excel and making it look pretty. 2015 in a lot of ways was the continuation of a trend of personal analytics. Using the power of "smart" technology you can learn a lot about yourself just by using the phone already in your pocket. I might have went a bit overboard this year but here is a look at a year in all of the statistics I've been tracking in 2015.
Movie Review: Ex-Machina
A couple of weeks back I came down with a cold and had a day at home during the week where all I did was watch episodes of Jessica Jones and watched a movie I've been dying to see, Ex-Machina. It's a movie I wanted to see in theaters and like a ton of movies this year never got around to doing it. Luckily it just recently came out on Amazon Prime so while I was hopped up on Dayquil I sat down and watched it.
Christmas Decorations - 2015 Edition
What a year its been. 2015 is only the second time since Jenn and I have been married that we haven't decorated our home at The Colony in Newport Beach. Sort of crazy right? Although we anticipated this being the first year we decorated our new home that wasn't meant to be and we couldn't have been more excited to decorate our new apartment.
