Back in Black, actually orange an black
I'm wearing my tiger shirt. The super loud one that puts me in a good mood.
the last time I wrote in here, I had no idea it would be almost three months before I returned. Hope life has been treating all of you in livejournal land well. There is no possible way I could go into detail about the past three months in one entry, because then we would all be sitting here well into the new year. But I don't want to leave you empty handed, so here's a smattering of what's happened since I got a real job and opened a new chapter in my life: I started working full time (duh), I found out Muffin had a broken rib, I almost bought another horse, I got a speeding ticket and a wreckless driving charge, I went to court for the wreckless driving charge, I went to the Irish times for the first time and ran into Cori and company, I developed a crush, I turned 22, I went on a tour of the East Wing of the White House, I went to a Cori party, I drove down to Richmond at 2am for Ana's birthday, I've been riding Alex like crazy and now he no longer seems interested in bucking me off anymore, My mom went to India and came back, I cried one night and wiped my nose on Erika's sleeve, I saw the Redskins beat the cowboys, I lost my wallet, and after three weeks it was delivered back to my house by a man who hardly spoke English, and as a result I don't know what my wallet was up to for three weeks, I celebrated a very pleasant Christmas, Me and Danny roadtripped to Virginia Tech, I went to the Hustler club, I became addicted to the song "Hotels" by Broken Social Scene, the "Can't Forget About You" track on Nas's new album, Undeclared and sushi. I'm sure there is more I forgot to mention, that I'll be kicking myself for soon, but I guess I'll write about it later.
So this is that last year of 2006. I'd have to say this was a bootcamp year for me. I am happy to see it go, and I know it will sound cheesy, but I think everything that happened to me this year made me a stronger person. I've lost a few friends, but made some great new ones also. I've also caught up with some that I thought I'd never see again. My life has changed immensely in one year, I ended the era of being a student, and now I'm working on carving out a career for myself. I feel very independent and capable, and physically fit right now, and it feels great. A number of my friends are doing interesting things too, and I am very proud of them. At this time last year, I was in India, and scared out of mind because I didn't know what lay in store for me. I knew it was going to be a difficult year, and believe me there were. But I made it out alive, and I honestly do thank God for some of the great experiences I had, and allowing me to remain sane after the shitty ones, because those were numerous. Goodbye 2006, we've had our ups and downs. I'll never forget you, but I probably won't miss you. My New Year's resolution for is to start playing music again and just overall keep working on the foundations of many other things I've laid down this year.
Here's a to a soothing New Year. See you all in 2007.
