 In retrospect, 2007 was a fucking crazy/weird year.
But all good things.
Maybe it wasn't crazy by other people's standards, but for me there were definitely significant changes. Starting with the obvious, graduating high school and starting college.  My sister getting married, and going to her and John's new apartment and having them cook us dinner was definitely a milestone. My family went through crazy fights and a lot of trouble, that at times I thought we would not be able to recover.  But we became stronger and closer because of it.
I made a friend that completely changed my outlook on life, and because of him I met other wonderful people.  Who would have thought that by staying at patio would have allowed me to meet such a good friend.  Speaking of patio, I bonded with all the people I work with, that now I feel like it is some sick disfunctional second family. I grew closer with some friends, I think, despite everyone going away to school.  It made me realize how important they are to me and how much I love them when they are gone, but makes our reunions that much better.  I got away with a lot of crazy shit, and pushed my parents to the limit.  I gained a lot more freedom. I became more rebellious. I went to some wild parties. I saw girl talk and patrick wolf, both were life-changing experiences haha. I went to the city a lot. I took part in many girl talk dance parties.  Went to a balloon dance party! I accepted that I just need to danceeee and then I will feel better. I kind of fell in love with techno. I stopped caring about grades, yet somehow got a 4.0 my first semester of college? I was on the radio! In the beginning of the year I made a portfolio of art that I was totally proud of. I decided that art is definitely what I need to do, even though I am still piecing together my future. I went to nature preserves. I became more independent. I had some sweet jam sessions. I realized that I like being home for college, for the time being. I messed around with the ouija board, and had some fucking crazy experiences with the paranormal.  Which I am stopping! I helped a friend fight through some hard times. Naked chicken fights? Oh, and I played Joan Rivers in a play written by Jon and Eric and it was totally  one of my favorite high school experiences. There were definitely a lot of memorable moments, a lot of drastic changes, yet a lot stayed the same.

I am definitely looking forward to 2008.  I think it will be the best yet. I am seeing the spice girls with lauren in february, and I am seeing the pink floyd laser spectacular with steve and caitlin in march. Those shows alone will make it amazing.  All I need is to see daft punk and I will be set for life! I am getting new hair on wednesday.  I want total change. I'm joining a gym. Steve is going to teach me how to surf in the summer! Hopefully I'll go on some roadtrips. I want to develop artistically. I will hopefully find an art internship. And maybe some lovin? haha. I'm so excited for this break and for next semester. Overall i am content.  So happy new year everyone, I hope its the best yet!
