closing 2010

Goodbye 2010.
Oh, you have taught me much.
Remember that thought I had as I gazed out at the lake last New Years Day. The thought I had as I trailed my seemingly happy friends along snow and ice?
It was all brand new, the slate was clean, I could go do so much with 2010.
I did.
I was accepted into the most competitive program at my university of choice. I finished my victory lap and graduated high school. I fell, hard. I lost my summer job before it even began. I won a massive scholarship. My heart was broken. I grew closer to the best friend that I have ever had. I moved out. I started university. I succeeded. I toughened up. I closed some chapters. I grew closer to God. I finished my first term of university, satisfied.

I loved and lost this year.
I gained a whole new world.
I realized the true definition of friendship. it's not to take, but to give. some people need a lesson in that.

This was another fast and slow year. In a couple days, 2011 will begin and it will be a new clean slate once again. You cannot get in my way. You cannot weigh me down. I refuse, because I'm done with the games. And I'm changing some stuff.


Perhaps sometimes I will update this blog.
But that's my message, if people even read this. I don't really care that much.

Happy New Year.
