2011in review
- I graduated from college.
- I turned 25
- My Grandma overcame her illness after a year and a half of fighting.
- My Mom had 3 brain surgeries in a span of 3 months.
- I got a raise at work.
- I took the GRE.
- I spent a lot of time with my nephew— the one person in the entire world who I can truly say I love the MOST!
- I decided to apply to grad school.
- I lived through one of the worse wind storms to hit the city I live in.
- I applied for a job for the first time in 2 years.
- I went to Oregon for the first time.
- I found out I’m going to have a niece.
- I stopped being in love with the idea of someone who stopped caring about me a long time ago.
- I didn’t go to a single show (… sad…)
- I met two amazing friends.
- I realized the worse thing to do is listen to any negativity, whether it be from professors, peers, or people in the street.
- I learned the only thing that matters is I’m happpy doing what I’m doing as long as I’m not hurting anyone in the process.
2011 has been a trying year for me. I have grown immensely in ways I could not have imagined. I may not have stuck to my resolutions but life happens and I needed to tweak the plan.
So yes, there was a lot of self-loving and self-discovery and no, there was no journey to being insanely and inconveniently in love. Am I happy about how things turned out? Yes and no. Am I ready for 2011 to be over— HELL YES.
