2010 Recap

In 2010, I...
  • I became a citizen of the United States and words can't even express the amazing experience it was. 
  • My boyfriend and I hit our 5 year anniversary of dating. yes.5.years. Where's the ring right?
  • Took summer classes so that I could finish my nursing pre-requisites quicker. 
  • Boyfriend and I got a puppy, an American Bulldog who we named Puma. 
  • Was introduced to the Hunger Game Series. Seriously, if you haven't read these books you need to. 
  • I had my 21st birthday. It wasn't as exciting as when i turned 15 and had my Quinceanera, or when I turned 16 and could drive, but hey it was another year of life that Heavenly Father gave me and I am thankful for each and every day I'm given.
  • Eclipse, the movie, came out and loved it so much.
  • I was accepted into the Nursing Program at my school.
  • I started blogging again and have met so many new people in just the past 2 months. i love you all and treasure your friendship.
  • Got straight A's fall semester.
December 
Has been the hardest month because I experienced my first lost. 
I lost my best friend to cancer.  
I think of her daily and I know she's with me. 
I also realized the love that's out there in this blogging community as you guys held my hand through this difficult time. You can't even imagine how much I appreciated your kind and helpful words.
December has also been a good month because well, we had Christmas! 
And I also received my first blogger award ever which made me jump with joy. 


Good Bye 2010,
Thanks for the memories.
Hello 2011.

I'm so ready for the New Year and am excited to see what's in-store for me!
2011 Bring it on!

  16. Sounds like you've been on a roller coaster this year, with so many ups and downs. My heart goes out to you for losing your friend. Cancer truly sucks!

    and this: "My boyfriend and I hit our 5 year anniversary of dating. yes.5.years. Where's the ring right?" <-- We hit our 5 years in April, engaged in September. Hang in there, it's coming. 8)
