My 2006
All in all, 2006 has been a weird year for me.
I have felt everything from complete elation to great sadness, from being so loved to being so lonely, and from being relaxed and happy to stressed and tense. I did a few firsts and achieved some goals. I met some beautiful people and spoke my mind to not so beautiful people. Hopefully 2007 will be better for everyone! How has your 2006 been?
