This year has been the most successful year of my life. I can honestly say that I have accomplished everything that I had dreamed of accomplishing at the beggining of this year. It started amazingly, continuing with ups and downs not all that unlike a roller-coaster ride, and reached a peak at the end of the year.
So.. I will try and recap this year....
The good:
-Being accepted to FIT, and chasing my dreams as a pilot.
-Losing my virginity.
-Pulling off a 3.7 at one of the hardest highschools in the nation.
-Attending some of the best parties I will ever see.
-Being in two commited, long term relationships (with a 5 month break between)
-Getting my own mini-van and drivers liscense!
-Getting my own savings account and checking account, and amassing a sum of 2000 dollars.
-Free loving day, 2005! Nothing more to be said.
-The sweethearts dance and valentines day, the first time I've ever bought a dozen roses.
-Summerschool fun and pulling the highest grade in Latin.
-Experiencing the fun that Lortabs can induce, and realizing that marijuana DOES have medical uses.
-Keeping a few friends back at home, when most others have lost all of their home friends.
-Got drunk for the first time... haha.
-Found out who my true friends are (more on that later).
-Getting an Ipod! They kick ass.
-Getting an aewsome laptop.
-Of course, the most important one of all... the greatest thing about this year was meeting Jen, the best girl and girlfriend who I will ever have the pleasure of knowing. The greatest thing about this year is being in a commited relationship with a girl who loves me just as strongly as I love her.
This year was not without its bumps and potholes, which sometimes seemed like canyons.
The Bad:
-I nearly died... gallbladder surgery.
-An 8 month relationship ended badly, something I had sworn would never happen.
-I did not pull off a 4.0.
Haha..
that's it, seriously. That's the full extent of the "Bad" of this year. Everything else was so minor, that honestly, it didn't even bother me.
My friends.. My true friends.. those that have stuck by me more than anything....
1) Jen. Jen is not only my lover, but my best friend, and I am glad to have her by my side.
2) Taylor Creekbaum. He's the most loyal friend that I have.
3) Mads! Maddison is probably the friend that makes me laugh the most.
4) Kenneth. Kenneth is the best friend at giving advice. He's been helpful the entire time I've known him. I'll miss that roomie.
5) Matthew. He's a friend back at home... and no matter the fact that I am always gone from my hometown, when I come back, he's always great to hang out with.
6) Ian. Another very loyal friend back home. His personality is relaxed and chilled out. He's wise and mature, and I love hanging out with him.
7) Kira. Another friend back home, haha, Matthew's girlfriend. She's fun to hang out with and watch movies with.
There are others, certainly. Many others. These people were the most influential, however, and I'm pleased to have them as my friends.
All in all, this has been the most succesful year of my life. I look forward to another great one.
