It's still hard to believe that 2005 is over. It seemed to go slow at first and now all of a suddenly it's 2006. WTF. I have changed so much this year. All for the better. In January, I got out of my first relationship and was heartbroken for quite awhile, until good things started building up again. Then things got fucked up in the summer and in October I realized that the answer to all my problems had been staring me in the face since the very first day of college. Seriously, this was the very best thing that happened this year. And I thank God every day for it.
I got my medication changed and I think I've finally found something that works. I had my first withdrawals and realized that ordering medication prior to it running out is a very good idea. Without certain stressors I feel ready to take on life again. I've met new people and strengthened old friendships. I'm so glad Briley came to Maryville and I love hanging out with all the boys. My sister and I are closer. I love her so much. My dad is still an asshole, but I'm getting over it. My mom is still the most awesome mom I know. I'm weary about my major, as I have no idea how I'm going to get a job after college. I don't know where I want to go. I've kinda lost sight of a career. I feel behind, especially after seeing all the professional stuff Allie is making, and getting paid for. And after Children's Lit, it's got me thinking about writing again...and illustrating. Which is more schooling. And more money. I have no money. I need to work hard this summer but I want a decent job, preferably somewhere in TN. Whoa, I've gotten off track.
Despite the hardships of 2005, it truly did turn out to be one of the most awesome years of my life. I'd like to thank (on LJ): Jess and my roommates for putting up with my craziness (and clumsiness), Em Normal and the other quad (for great candid conversations and fun get-togethers), Allie and Erin (for being fabulous MI friends), Ashley, Ashleigh, and all the other TN girls (for making me laugh and being such good friends), Michael Myers (for all the wonderful things we've done and everything you've taught me about myself), Rammel Chan (for some awesome LJ entries that make me a-LOL), and Thomas Donald Russell (for everything. From the bitch sessions to the corn maze to New Years. For being so good to me. For loving me.)
Thanks to everyone else who made it through this silly entry.
