Goodbye Old, Hello New.

It's New Years Eve.
There is snow on the ground, and the sky is a light gray color.
It's a funny thing, new years eve. People ask you how your year was, what made it good or bad. Was this the best year of your life? How can that actually be answered?
I have failed, been terrified, fallen, cried, ran away, and been broken to pieces this year. If you look at mere events, it would appear to have been the worst year of my life. However, I value every tear, every heart-breaking experience, every fight-because I have learned some defining lessons that ultimately make the difference between a little girl and an adult. It's high school, things that are really wonderful can sometimes become extremely painful. But was it worth it? Was it worth the heartache, the anxiety, the stress, to get to where we are now? Well, I'm still here, and I have a smile on my face and an excitement in my heart for the upcoming year.

Things to look forward to in 2010:
1. No longer writing the number nine on all of my papers. (my least favorite number)
2. Senior Trip
3. Prom
4. Graduating High School
5. Turning 18.
6. Establishing my new life at college.
Who knows, maybe 2010 will be the 'Best Year of My Life'.
Happy New Year, Everyone.
