Hey folks....
.
I could go on for a year about 2005. How much did 2005 play into my life?
Well let's see. I joined TYT (technically, this was in the end of 2004 but whatever). TYT had introduced me to the world of people. I met amazing people who were the for me no matter WHAT, and I have managed to be great friends with them since. I've also met people there who were not good people, but helped me see what NOT to be. I met Kristen and Kyle. The first time I met kyle was during birdie when we were all practicing "telephone hour". He told a quick story about how Oliva Newton John had to pee right after they put her into her costume that took a while. I laughed really hard, and Troy, who I met then said a sarcastic but joking remark back to him...Haha. That moment, just sitting there, was when I met one of my best friends, Kyle.
I met Kristen, going to "Picnic at Hanging rock", I went with her and Lauren. From that night on, I knew these two people would be my great friends, And we still are one year later. All of you, I'm just saying thanks for being there for me when I needed you, I'm not going into the whole list of names, but Thank you.
So. 2005? I was "Straight" up until about February? March? Jeff was the first person I ever told that I'm Gay. I told him because I trusted him, and he really has helped me come along way. Thanks bud. And to be honest? Every person I told progessively, one by one, you helped me become more okay with myself, making me feel proud to be who I am.
In the summer of 2005, after coming out to basically all of my friends...I came out to my parents. Very accepting, they hugged me and told me it was perfectly okay. I'm very fortunate to be born into such an accepting family. I thank for that, and appreciate it. very much. This year I realized the importance of family. My mother, for one, will always be here for me. My uncles, aunts, and my grandparents..I appreciate them and love them even more because I've realized how loving my family is (on my mom's side).
2005 was my year of finding myself. Sadly, a person influenced me into talking horribly about my friends, making them hate me for a while. They made me feel like it was okay to talk horribly about them because they did profusely. I learned from this person (we don't talk anymore) that Friends are friends, and you do not talk bad about them. Ever.
2005, I've learned the power of true friendship...how great it really is. This year, I can say, meeting Casey was amazing. He completely takes my breath away. We have been talking for 3 months, yet I feel like i've known him for a long time. I completely am head over heals for him, as you know. (We hung out yesterday, for 5 hours, it went great. =D). I think this year I have had my first real 'crush', if you will...and I'm starting to really fall for him. (In love? I don't know. I've never felt THIS strongly to anyone). He has a boyfriend currently, but something tells me it's not really going to last long. Even if it does? Oh well. We'll be great friends, and I'm thankful for meeting such an amazing person as him.
All in all, I really had an amazing year. It's been a rollercoaster, it's ups and downs really have made me laugh, cry, and feel everything. Honestly, I could go on forever, but I'm not going to because everything is in my mind, and 2005 will be known as my year of finding myself and maturing. Because I have matured extremely, wether you see it or not, I have. And I know who I am.
Resolution? To continue on being a better person. Not talking about friends badly ever. Getting closer to those I really love and want to. Getting closer with Casey, and the cliche one....Losing a few pounds then getting more toned..lmao.
