Tis the season for navel gazing...
More stuff about 2007. Whatever, I'm organizing my thoughts.
I keep thinking, "Wow, this has been a crummy year!" but it hasn't, really. It's been a crummy few months, but overall, it hasn't been a bad year.
In the negative column, I was fired from my internship, at least three people decided they had better things to do than be friends with me, I couldn't find a grown-up job, and I'm stuck living with my parents.
But overall? I graduated from college. I wrote more this year than I've ever written before. I made some new friends, I'm working at a place that I don't despise, and I'm making money (even if it's an abysmally small amount). In the end, I think the positives come out stronger than the negatives. The parts that were bad really sucked, but in the process, they provided good things as well. There were people, many who are probably reading this, who took their time to reach out to me during the bad times and entertain me or let me rant or... whatever. And. Guys. I love you, I really, really do.
I did a lot of awesome things. I finished a full month of itsproductivity, I finished my senior project, I went to visit scrollgirl, I entertained friends from far away, I got to see courtney_beth and Susie from camp again. I met Leslie and Lauren and Abby. I spent time with Steven and Alex and Caitlin. I was basically surrounded by positivity when I needed to be and... that's important.
I'm not really good at resolutions. I have my list of 101 things in 1001 days, and that's going to serve as my list of things to do. I'm going to try and write every day and above all, I'm going to try and sort out my personal life. It's a fucking mess, to be quite honest. It's all my own fault, but I can't let myself get into this shit over and over again. If I keep any resolutions, I hope it's that one.
Anyway, that's really that. Tonight I'm going over to my grandmother's with my mom and her friends, mostly because I don't really have any of my own. ::shifty eyes:: At least, none locally. I think quatredeathlady might be there, though!
So, Happy New Year, boys and girls. Let's make it a good one, yeah?
