An introduction to... me?

Hi everyone, 
My name is Jonathan Bowers and this is a new experiment for me. I've been trying to learn more about myself in these past few months, but I don't know how to do that. I'm going to be honest, I meant to start a blog or a Youtube channel a long time before now (Still planning the Youtube channel, and writing scripts for that), but it's taken a long time to actually do anything about it and I couldn't think of a name for a long time. I decided to go with "A Self-Proclaimed Dreamer" because I have a lot of ideas, thoughts, and other things, but I don't share them with anyone, they just live in my head (and laptop), so no one else would really call me much of a dreamer unless I know them super well. That's part of what this is about, I guess, sharing my thoughts with others. That means opinions, ideas for writing, and excitement about various different upcoming projects are all on the table. Upcoming projects is a phrase which here means, "video games and movies." I am definitely one of the biggest Disney fans that I know, and that goes double for Theme Parks, so definitely expect to see some content about Disney World on here. I'm trying to make this about things that I like and less about being an online journal, but sometimes the two go hand in hand, if I feel like it makes sense to include some tidbit about my life, maybe I'll include it, but I certainly will try my best to not forcibly subject you all to this. I'm excited for this project and I hope you guys will like it too! 
Hope to post again soon!

A Sober Speakeasy...

      Hey there, friends! Are you looking for a new feeling of community? Do you like dressing up like someone out of the roaring 20's? Are you planning on observing a "Dry January" or do you just enjoy non-alcoholic drinks and would like to know how to make one for yourself? I have just the event for you! I've been working with a group of young adults from Smoke Rise Baptist Church for the last few months on a pop-up event in collaboration with Princeton and we've come up with something pretty unique! We call it a "Sober Speakeasy," where we will capture the essence of a cool exclusive club nestled in the heart of Downtown Tucker, Georgia, but we would love for people to come! We'll have some silent films in the background while you meet and converse with people, play old games, and a tutorial to show how to make non-alcoholic "mocktails." Make sure to keep your eyes peeled though, I've heard rumors of another club in town that's p

Growing up with games (Thoughts on positive impacts of gaming on a person)

When I was little, many of my friends played video games pretty often, and as we grew up, many of them drifted away from the medium, many of whom didn't really want to be friends after they stopped playing. It was always a sad time for sure, but nothing lasts forever I suppose. I'm thinking a lot about my own personal background with gaming this week while I prepare for a pretty exciting trip that involves a discussion about how I began my history with gaming, and I thought I should share some of my credentials here this week, and it's funny that it has taken me this long to talk a bit about my times playing games. This week will be a little more self-reflective than I'm used to, somewhat to convince me that I'm worthy of talking on that topic. I'm getting to where I can accept that I'm deserving of good things, and my friends have felt that way for a while, so I would like to take a moment here before I begin to thank all of them for encouraging me. It'

Another year, another birthday! (Birthday post 2023!)

     Hey friends, I'm Jonathan, a Self-Proclaimed Dreamer, and a few days ago was my birthday! A lot of times, I write this post the week before my birthday, but it has really snuck up on me this year in a way that it really hasn't previously! The day itself was fantastic, and even wrapped up with a nice surprise party from some new friends that I've made this year. I don't intend on talking too much about the day itself, even though I did have a great one. This post every year is more of a reflection of the year itself and how my life has changed during it. This year has really felt like I've begun to get things together, though I still have a long way to go! Let's just go ahead and talk a bit today, I hope you'll join me during this short recollection of 2023! Getting a little personal     I made some new friends this year, as I said, and really I feel like my life has improved so much because of them. The last few years have definitely been rough after th
