A Year Gone

Dec 16, 2008 18:01

As I look back upon my year gone by I realize that my life has been pretty weird. I'm at Westfield College, almost done with school (until the Masters), I've held my jib at Payless for a year and 5 months, and I'm still with Matt.

As far as everything else, I'm still doing stage stuff, I'm still close with Amanda, and now Craig and Fanboy have entered my life again. Really, I couldn't be more greatful for them. They make me feel like I'm worth something when others make me feel small and weak.

I wish I could say that I accomplished more this year, but my big achievements aren't that great. I passed one of my two MTELs, the Communication & Literacy, with one more to go. Yay subject matter. Great. I still haven't got a license, but that's my summer goal so I can go visit people. I finally made it to Disneyworld, which was amazing and a nice change. Dean's list for the fourth year running.

What I hated about this year: The death of Nick. I can't believe he's gone. It's hard to look back and realize he's not here. He's not in the hospital, he's gone. Sometimes I think he's still around us, laughing with us and helping us through our days. I still feel horribly empty without him, and I can't even imagine the pain Amanda is still feeling. If I learned anything this year, it was that Nick was a huge part of everyones lives, and he'll be the first one waiting for us when it's our turn to leave this world. You are missed dearly Nick.

But we move on, and we live our lives. Right now I'm just happy this year is almost over. I'm trying like mad to get into the holiday spirit, and my fanclub is doing everything in their power to help me get jolly. Thanks to Rayvin and Edward for making me smile and keeping me going. Thanks to Feronia and Shadow for keeping it real. I hope next year is as amazing as my dreams tell me, and I hope everyone reading this has a dream come true.
