In with the outro and out with the old
So, with this year almost over and Christmas here, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. Also to have a wonderful and healthy New Years. :)
This year flew by right before my eyes. It's been a great year, one of the bests that I've had. I hope for an even better one in '07.
But so far in 2006, I've learned that I truly have the greatest friends that anyone can have. They're there for me, we have the funnest times together, I can trust them with my whole life, and I respect each and everyone of them. I also love all of my friends to death. I couldn't (and wouldn't) ask for anyone else. Kelsey taught me to laugh and have fun. Carly taught me to love and really care for a person. Maryam talked me through problems and in return, I made her realize that everyone changes. Kate taught me to play the piano and to laugh til my sides hurt.
I also learned to play lacrosse this year. It was one of the greatest things that has happened to my life. Not only is this sport amazing, but my team.. there are no words to desribe how wonderful and amazing these girls are. I am so glad I did lacrosse and met the people who are not only my team mates, but my friends. I cannot wait til our season begins and the thrill of playing games starts.
Also, I've matured a lot over the past year. I've become more of a quiet person, but I can be loud and crazy when time calls for it. I might have my spastic moments. Haha. I've taken on a lot of new responsibilities. Starting to drive and work are big steps in my life, but great ones.
Next year though, I have a lot of things I want to accomplish and see happen. First off, I want to be able to live to my new motto: Live life to the fullest and have fun. Life isn't about all that drama and trouble. I want to be able to not stress out and care about silly things. I'm still young and I'm only young once.
Also, pushing myself to become a better athlete as well as the rest of the lacrosse team. We want state so bad this year. If we all get into the mind set of winning state, then we can. I have total confidence in everyone. I know we will do it this year.
I want to start being better to my family and helping out with them. I put my friends before my family a lot. I don't want to do that anymore. Although I say "family before friends", I don't show it. I decided that every weekend, I don't need to go out. Having a night with my family is good too. And helping out around the house, like cleaning some more.. my parents would appreciate that so much more. My parents do so much for me and I didn't even realize it. They pay so much for me and my sister - food, clothes, school, sports, band, and other needs. They do everything for us. And I love them so fricken much for doing that.
It's going to be a little harder next year, though. 2 of my best friends, Kelsey and Kelly, are graduating. Kelly is most likely going to BYU Idaho. Kelsey.. I know that she is going to get a lacrosse scholarship to BYU or ASU or something. So it's going to be HORRIBLE to see them leave. But I guess... Carpe diem - seize the day. Have fun with them while they're still here.
Well.. New Years is in less than a week now. Only 6 more days of 2006. I'll miss it.. but 2007 is going to be new start and hopefully a wonderful year.
