man, this past year seemed to have flown by. definately not enough mistchief caused. haha. anyway... had some great things happen this year. moved to california and strengthened my friendship with joss and made other friends too. learned to be more self disciplined and learned to have a little more fun as well. i figured that goofing off isn't always a bad thing. and so what if people stare? how else will you know that you're making an impact. sure there are things i think maybe i shouldn't have done, but why dwell on it? the only thing now is to learn and keep living. i got to spend more time with my brother this summer and really bond with him. also, got to spend christmas with my dad, the first time since 1996. and to top it off, it was a white christmas (the first in houston history). i told my family how i felt, probably the first time in a very long time. said things that needed to be said, maybe not everything, but one step at a time. i tried to be there for friends when they were hurting, and going through really hard times. i did my best, or what i thought was my best. there were rough times this year, but there were also bright spots.

so looking back on what seems like the shortest year of my life so far, i can smile and think that i made it alright. i've got more growing to do, but who doesn't? more learning and more changing. but i know that i make an impact on people's lives, and i won't be totally alone this next year. and for that, i'm utterly greatful.
