Running, Running...
So last year I wrote this note to 2005 (and I pissed Bridget off my addressing inanimate objects):
Dear 2005,
You have thrown us for quite a loop already. You seem to be a trickster, but I have dealt with enough mediocer class clowns in my day to know that underneath most of you are good people. I am ready for you 2005. I am ready, whether you want me ot be or not. And when I say bring it on, I do not say it in the same way I said it before we played Amity in the Nikh Bowl, I say it in a more friendly way. An excited/nervous way if you will. And while we are working with the "/" I expect this year to be crazy/beautiful, bitter/sweet, and fun/sad. Let's see what you got, 2005. B/c as of right now, I love you already and I've only known you for 6 days.
Love,
Lauren
And, oh jeez, 2005 was a pretty amazing year. Graduation, grease, learning what I DON'T want in a boy, and then learning what I do <3, college, parties, tooling around, camp...pretty much every moment of 2005 has been, well...intense. But in intense in a good way. In a way that makes you step back and think, "shit, I did that?!". And the the thing is, yeah, we really did. And the most important thing is "we"...WE did that. I owe so much of my year, of my life to everyone that is in it. Everyone who makes it fun or silly or ridiculous or difficult or confusing or amazing or any combination of any adjectives you can think of. ::insert Hanson quote here::
And the crazy thing is, we have another year right on its tail. And just when we thought we have hit the peak of how funny or sexy or interesting our lives can get, things change, we change, the times change and something else comes flying our way. What does 2006 have in store for us? Hell if I know, but I'm looking forward to spending it with you guys...now that I can say with confidence.
