2010

I was inspired by Shannon (in other words, I'm going to copy her) to reflect on the last year. 2010 was a strange, difficult, and awesome year all at once. These are the major events of last year, in  no order, and both good and bad:

1. Eric and I broke up for the final time. It took me a while to realize, but it set me free!

2. I took English 3400 and 3410 and fell in love with my major for reals.

3. I spent the majority of Spring Break and second semester with Justin, and we had a fun and drama-free relationship (the easiest one I've been in so far).

4. I saw several awesome concerts: Cake, Modest Mouse, Tegan and Sara, Reel Big Fish, The New Pornographers, Matisyahu, Beirut, Flogging Molly, Ben Folds

5. I got my current job at retail; I love it and I hope to keep it for a long time.

6. I partied like a rock star!

7. I kissed a girl (EWWWWWWW)

8. I met so many awesome people who are really important to me.

9. I broke someone's heart.

10. I went through some awful family struggles that have left me terrified of marriage and helped me learn where my loyalties lie.

11. I became addicted to coffee.

12. I quit smoking!  

13. I grew up. I still have a lot of work to do, but I've improved myself so much in the last year.
