Goodbye 2009

" it's been a long December, and theres
reasons to believe maybe this year will be
better than the last.
note: this is now a repeated quote, but it has a purpose.

2009 was quite the year;

Between finding my one true love, becoming an Aunt, learning to let go of bad/abusive relationships, moving out on my own for the first time, getting my first tattoo, adopting Maya, and meeting my birth family... I can definitely say it was one worth remembering. Of course I had many other momentous experiences but if you know me well enough, I'm sure you've heard of them.


As for 2010, my resolutions are the following:
Keep the apartment cleaner.
Work out at least 3-4 times a week.
Pay all of my car payments on time.
Continue to ride as much as possible.
Work really hard in college.
Live each day to the fullest.
And finally, let go of my past.

Oh, and just for kicks this is my new car!! :)
It's a 2009 Mazda 3.I wish it were black, but oh well.
I can always get a paint job, lol.

Car Wreck

Whip lashed/put in a splint for two weeks.
And the Vicodin isn't working as well as it should.

Some guy pulled out of an alley and hit me pretty hard from the side. I lost control of my car and swerved up onto someone's yard and into/through a telephone pole. Power lines were knocked down and everything. The son of a bitch fled the scene. Thankfully I have both medical and car insurance, otherwise I'd be super pissed.

Obviously my car is totaled. The good news is that I'm going to get a much better car out of this and my insurance is giving me a rental for 30 days. For now though I don't even want to think about driving. I will be stuck in bed for a few days.

It's December!

My favorite month of a year.
A month that over the past few years has been a struggle.
December 2009, though, will be different.

Today is the day

I got maybe three hours of sleep last night, I am super nervous and now exhausted.
I can do this, I can do this, I can do this.
God I hope they like me.

One week

Until I meet my birth family.
I'm starting to freak out and second guess my decision.

Too soon, too late, too much, too long.
Oh dear.

Music

It's amazing how easily it can bring back the past.

It's love

I woke up to this sitting on the bed side table this morning,
how effing cute :)
