A New Start

Merry Christmas! and Happy New Year!!! I missed saying this on Christmas day.....so I figured I'd say it now! I got to spend Christmas in Kansas! Not terribly exciting for most people, but I have awesome cousins that live there :D So it was great! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas as well! Anywho, wow! I can't believe today is the LAST day of 2010. That just blows my mind. Seriously. I really wanted to do something exciting tonight, but I'm just hanging out with the familia. Movie night! Not what I was hoping for, but its still lots of fun. This year has been incredible. I feel like it went by SO fast but at the same time I feel like I did so much stuff! There were several ups and downs. Including my dad being without a job for the whole summer. But I really learned a lot from that experience. And I'm so very grateful that the Lord has blessed my dad with a new job. I hope we never take it for granted. I also feel like I kinda came out of my shell this year. I'm usually pretty shy but I kinda feel like I've left that part of me behind (for the most part). I'm still pretty quiet but I've learned to be outgoing, friendly, and talkative. Haha! I'm really looking forward to a new year! A new year means a new start. A chance to be someone different,. A chance to be the person you want to be. The hard part about a new year is letting go. Looking back there's so many things I wish I could redo. Mistakes I'd change, things I'd say, and things I'd do. Someone once told me: "Ask me anything. My life is an open book. No regrets." Wow. I honestly wish I could say that. But I wouldn't exactly say my life is an open book. There's so much left unsaid, and so much I can't bring myself to say. But maybe, just maybe, if the right person asked, I might tell them. Not to mention, I do have some regrets. But that's in the past! And looking back never got anybody anywhere. So I hope 2011 brings new friends, new opportunities, new places, and new things to learn. Happy New Years everyone!!!!!!
