Yeesh. What a year...and we've only seen 18 full days of it! Remembering that this is a brand new year with brand new opportunities, filled with brand new responsibilities is somewhat comforting and at the same time frightening.
I've thought alot recently on mistakes I've made in the past. I've thought about what went wrong and what I could do today to a) avoid those mistakes and b) fix them should they occur. Then I had to start thinking about my future. In the next 2 years, my whole world is going to change drastically. People moving, jobs changing, saying goodbye, making friends...I'm excited and nervous. Updates as they come! Stay tuned :)
I'll be 24 this year. That's difficult to swallow seeing as I was voted "Biggest Little Kid" in high school and still frequently act like a 5-year-old. Next year I'll have been alive for a full quarter century. If that doesn't make a girl feel old, I don't know what will...but that's beside the point.
The head cheerleading coach and I developed a competition team who competed for the first time over the weekend. They took first in their division and received a bid to nationals. They were the only ones in their division BUT the judges weren't required to place them, nor did they need to give them a bid to nationals. Most of the team had never competed before EVER, and CR and I were so proud of them for their performance. It wasn't perfect, but they kept their energy up and busted it out. Good job ladies!
BS and I have many plans coming up...many expensive plans. That means our short weekend visits are going to have to be cut down. *sigh* Back to seeing each other every other week or longer. One good thing about that is we end up missing each other so much and we really get to appreciate and enjoy the time we do end up spending together...I can't wait for the day where we're closer to one another.
Happy Wednesday, readers! Have a great week, it's halfway over!

Resolutions and a weekend of Birthday Fun
Happy New Year, readers!! My new years celebrations were limited. Visited a couple New Year's parties but ended up back at home by 11:30 to ring in the new year with my love. We watched movies and played card games and slept till noon! Wasn't the celebratory new year that either of us were used to, but it was nice none the less.
This past weekend was a blur of insanity...BS turned 24 last Thursday. Thursday night we sat 3rd row from the ice at the Sharks game. The view from those seats were amazing. The atmosphere was electric! BS has said to several people that even though they lost, it was the most fun he's ever had. We really did have a blast. After the game, we went up to Neverland (our friends' home) in Sunnyvale and partied in honor of mister S. Then Friday night, we went to BJs with another group of people for drinks and appetizers, then back to BL's apartment for beer pong and rock band with his neighbors. THEN BS's official birthday party kicked off Saturday night back at Neverland. It was agreeably the most fun the group of us had had in a very long time.
Needless to say, Sunday was a day of lazy relaxing. And after a weekend of partying, I'm happy to be home working and coaching and going to bed at NIGHT (and not early morning!). Happy Birthday to the love of my life, my best friend, the greatest guy I know. I hope, BS that you had as much fun as I did. I hope that this birthday will be one for the books! :)
Now that the holidays are over, the new year has begun and most people struggle to adhere to New Year's Resolutions. I made a few resolutions for the new year. My top resolution was to eat healthier. Fresh fruits and veggies, cooking at home, eating smaller portions, etc etc. It's hard to maintain that resolution...and thus far I have done significantly worse than I thought I would do. I mean, I knew I'd screw up a couple times over, but with the party weekend it was hard not to eat like a struggling college kid (ramen, taqueria burrittos, jack in the box...we've all been there).
Resolution #2: get my resume done and get a new job, a steady one with security and stability that pays me enough to pay my bills and will get me closer to my guy. That's a work in progress.
My other resolutions fall under those categories...(lose weight, get my own place, etc...) Hopefully this will be a productive year. *fingers crossed*
