WOW 2010!

January 1, 2010 - 9:00 AM

Oh my goodness, I cannot believe that it is 2010 already. Like I said in my last blog I feel like I started college just yesterday. Where has the last year and a half gone? I don't know. I'm really excited for 2010 though. It will bring fun travels, cool classes, boring classes, fights, and changes. I used to hate changes, but I'm so ready for them this year. I want them so badly. I lived relatively the same way for the last twenty years. I'm finally ready for a change. I used to be so scared of it and now I'm meeting it head on and creating some of it as well.

I remember when I was like ten that 2010 seemed so far away. I was never going to make it to high school. I was so excited for the next step. Now I just want to take a quick break or at least slow things down a bit. There is no need to be grown up so fast. I know in my heart of hearts that is what I have wanted for so long. I felt it would be better for me. I have a hard time connecting with people my age, but it is due to things in my past that I am getting over, with the help of the UO's counseling center. Now I'm learning how to act my age. I can be who I am, crazy responsible, and still have fun. I just have to not care so much. Well that's not exactly how I mean that to come out. It's hard to explain. Like I'm a super caring person, but I have to not care so much about friend's choices, because I might feel they are horrible choices, but I'm not the one making them. It's easier then.

Well I wish everyone a super, amazing, fantastic, wonderful, and every other adjective you can think of, New Year. 2010 holds so much for all of us. We can all take this head on. I challenge everyone to think twice when in a sticky situation, don't fall to peer pressure so quickly, and most importantly HAVE FUN! Enjoy every day as if it were the best ever and the best gift you have been given. So enjoy this day and every other. So until next time...
