and so goes the end of the crazy year of 2005.  a year filled with unforgettable highs and lows.  it began with the most intense tennis program of my life, challenging me nd pushing me to become the most fit condition i have ever been in, as well as training me to play the best tennis i have ever played.  it followed with a tumultuous, drawn-out, stressful and ultimately depressing sequence of unfortunate events which involved, in short, my coach lying and being appallingly deceitful in an illogical attempt to kick me off the tennis team when i had truly done nothing wrong.  the hardest part with dealing with that situation, was being so far away from my immediate family.  but fortunately, i had the greatest most undescribable support from ALL of my tennis teammates as well as my infamous and unforgettable extended family - TUG. without either, i would without a doubt not had the strength to fight it all the way to court (of which i won).  alas, the summer was unfortunately dreary, spending most of my time chasing after Canadian university deadlines, faxing transcripts left and right, leaving endless voicemails... so much harrassment from me that i beat McMaster into submission and they accepted me.  A new life, a new beginning... things were starting to look up.  But then, just a few weeks following PJ broke up with me.  It wasn't a surprise, but it definately hurt.  But I had experienced so much sadness, that I had almost become... numb to it, and I refused to let it break me down after all that I had gone through.  Jordan helped me settle in Mac, getting me a wonderful place to live, showing me around, and welcoming me into his Cline family.  The first Cline party, about the end of September, PJ and I decided to give Us another go (the craziest fight ever haha, lots of alcohol tears a punch in the wall and a slap in the face haha).  But we've been stellar ever since. He makes me so happy coz I can be the biggest goofball, he doesnt mind all my many imperfections.   What else?  I  finally got high.  That  was pure jokes.  I  got to see my favourite bands two nights in a row.  I got to experience the Canadian paradise that is Muskoka.   I became  devoted to the religion  of Molson Canadian and hockey nights with  my kick ass housemate Ames.  I  pulled my first real all-nighter over  the most intimidating subject I have ever taken.  This winter break has been... truly unforgettable.  I feel especially close to my family, of which I spent most of my childhood detached from.  An HNM reunion actually worked! Everyone showed up! In-sane & lots of fun to see my lovely girls.  I hit every single good mall in Ontario. Seriously.  And I cant think of a better way to celebrate New Years than with the best of friends, a fine 7 course meal, dresses heels and men in ties, and best of all - OPEN BAR!!

New Years Resolutions
1) Appreciate loved ones and spend more time with family and friends this year.
2) Work out, get back into healthy shape.
To balance out the alcohol gut of NYR #3
3) Drink more.  Haha. Seriously. I want a drinking set.
4) Learn something new
5) Push the envelope
Screw new years resolutions that are typical.  I wanna try real things.  Go fucking nuts.  Who fucking cares!
6) Move on from Temple.  Not forget, but move on and enjoy Mac.
The hardest thing I have ever had to do is to move on from my life that was Temple.   A life that I dedicated all my childhood working towards, so many sacrifices... and that I truly had some of the greatest moments of  my life.  I miss my extended family, and I'll always love them!
7) Meet Dane Cook.  Rape Dane Cook.
This list wouldnt be complete without an unrealistic NYR.

Wow, you made it this far.  Thanks! Have a nice day :)
