And a Happy New Year!



Sometimes I've thought that life is equally balanced with good and bad, so if you have a really bad morning you usually will have an unusually great night. That isn't always the case, but I know that when I think back on new year's eves of my past I see great ones and really crappy ones. One year I babysat the whole night and ushered in the new year by watching dating game shows. (Sad, I know!) But new year's eve 2006 was one of the best I've known! Yes, I was wearing my new dress that my wonderful boyfriend Ryan bought for me, and yes, we went to a romantic dinner and held hands and sipped champange for hours before heading to a party with friends, but I am convinced that I could have been equally as happy sitting next to my fireplace in p.j.s as long as I could have the same company. Being in love makes little things great!
I had a fantastic new year's eve this year, and I'm so excited about this new year. I love the thought that I have no idea where I'll be next new year's eve. The future feels so big and full of possibility! I'm teaching English as a second language as well as working my web design job, so I'm gonna be busy. Plus I'm planning on going to the gym 2-3 times a week. And I want to cook dinner for myself/someone at least twice a week. And learn guitar. And learn hip hop. And learn to sing. And travel. And learn Spanish/French.
So what about you? Where do you hope to be in a year?
