well..here goes nothing!

Ah, I finally figured this thing out after about 30 minutes! Anyways, Happy New Year! Since it's the new year, I thought I could pick up on something new, so I figured why not blog! To begin, I want to say WOW what a year it was, good and bad! I have learned this year about finding myself. Sometimes I feel like I let others minipulate who I am, but they aren't me. I learned to be myself and not really care what others thought of me.  Well even if you don't care about my year, I'm about to put all the crazy stuff that has went down!
The beginning of the year was definitely a rough start. One of my closest friends, dad, was diagnosed with cancer and as I cry writing this part, cancer hasn't only changed his life but also the people that surround him. Seeing him go through this taught me never take life for granted because tomorrow isn't promised. Even if you aren't in the best mood, put a BIG smile and think about all the things that are worse than what has put you in a bad mood at the moment. ALWAYS remember, a day without laughter is a day wasted, and this short life we have, there's no time to have a wasted day! Along with all of this going on a certain person walked in my life, that didn't stay too long, but guess what, I gained a new best friend out of all that. SUMMER 2011, whoa! Let's just say what a summer to remember! Me and some of my closest friends went down for senior week but since we weren't seniors, we called it junior week! All I have to say is that was a trip to never forget. Although at the end of the summer it was hard saying goodbye to friends going to college, but at least they come home every now and then! As fall rolled around, the bittersweet moment of my senior year started! Can't believe in six short months, I'll be graduating high school! Thanksgiving and Christmas came and went and this year it was so weird, it didn't even feel like the holidays.. well maybe because it's 70 degrees in the middle of winter! Now that yesterday was 2011 I can say I brought in the new year with the greatest people!
Sorry for such a long blog, but since it's January 1,2012 I thought I should reflect my year!
