Today I turned another year older, and I think a little retrospective is in order. In the course of a year its sometimes hard to see the little things and I sometimes have a habit of overlooking all that I’ve accomplished. After sitting down with my employer yesterday for a yearly review I decided that maybe I should do the same for my life outside of my day job, so as a little experiment I figured I would list all of my quantifiable achievements and deficiencies over the past year. I: spent 7 months unemployed spent 5 months employed by NCARB sat for 7 sections of the ARE waited over 2 months for my last ARE result to arrive passed 7 sections of the ARE was licensed as an Architect in 2 jurisdictions (Virginia and Washington, DC) started my own architecture firm, studioSML, LLC wrote 40 posts to this blog had a gap of almost 5 months between posts wrote 2 posts for Greater Greater Washington wrote 15 posts for DC Metrocentric visited 3 homes by Frank Lloyd Wright wrote 0 articles about those homes (which I plan on remedying as soon as possible)
