HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Well its officially 2009! Crazy to think how fast the past year went! SOOO much has happened in the past 365 days that it is hard to think much more COULD happen in a years time! Guess I will just have to wait and see what 2009 has in store! Well its been over a month since I posted my last blog. Since then I have mainly just been working a lot due to the Christmas parade at Disney, and I was fortunate enough to be able to visit home around the holidays, which was great!!! In that time, I was able to: see a good old friend Charli get married, see Cassie and Andrea my 2 best friends from high school, visit with my high school sweetheart Erin, have our annual soup supper where I was able to visit with many neighbors and friends of the family, celebrate Christmas a few days early with my parents, brother, Papa Keith & Gram Rose, and great aunt and uncle Martha and Jerry, got some very cool presents including a camcorder and a hibachi grill, but the best gift was just being able to be home! On my last night I was even able to fit some time in at the hospital due to my dad slipping on some ice! I also got to experience what it was like to fly on Christmas Eve! Since then I have also managed to: celebrate Christmas day by doing 2 parades and then having dinner with some great friends and then opening presents with my best friend Tyler, find a new roommate who seems promising, made some great new friends, and rang in the new year with LOTS of champagne and wonderful friends to celebrate with! So needless to say it has been a pretty busy month, and a GREAT one at that!! I will quickly end this blog by including a few basic goals for 2009! I intend to: always seek joy wherever possible, strive to be as sincere/honest/caring/endearing/and helpful person as I can, make new friends, keep in better touch with old friends, have MANY new exciting adventures/experiences, offer a hug and a smile as often as possible, LOVE with all my might, and learn at least one new thing EVERY day! Happiest of New Years and may it be the best one yet!
