Oh goodness. Where to begin....
With my first semester of college over and done, I am proud to say that I survived! I have yet to gain my Freshman Fifteen (trying to keep it that way...) and I have yet to find out if I actually passed all of my classes...
2010, you have been a beast!! I have learned so much and hopefully will not quickly forget all of the things I have added to my experiences.
Moving to Salt Lake was just about the best thing I could have done for myself this year. I have made so many new friends and love where I am right now.
I am going to be an aunt!! I'm so excited, even though there will be hard times for my family because of the circumstances and situations.
I have come to love my family SO much! Every single one of them! Every time something new happens, good or bad, I end up loving them so much more!! I love that my family is both the white sheep family, and the black sheep family. We are so unique and have an awesome story together. I'm grateful for them.
I love the friends that keep me a part of their lives. We dont see each other often, but we work hard to keep our friendship alive, despite the fact that our lives have taken us different ways. After all, isnt that how friendship works?
My life would cease to be Mine if there werent changes thrown at me ever few minutes, so I look at changes as a challenge to make the best of them. I admit, I have lots of growing up to do, but all the changes I have overtaken have helped to shape me into the person I am today.
I think the most exciting thing about changes is leaving behind what was and looking forward to what will be. Goodbyes can be hard, but sometimes they are for the better. I can testify of this. I dont know everything, but I know everything happens for a reason, and thats enough to comfort me through most everything.
I know who I am and where I fit into the big scheme of things. I know who I need to be to fulfill who I need to become. I know my potential and I know I cant forget it.
These few weeks off of school will be great- full of seeing friends from high school and hopefully seeing lots of family. I cant wait to spend a few days surrounded by my family and everyone I love. There will definitely be pictures to come.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, Happy everything else...
2010, you were fun.
2011, I'm ready now.
