2015. A whole new year. An opportunity to start over or improve upon ourselves.There are a few exciting things I have to look forward to this year. I will finish my first year of college in May, in August I'll turn 20, and in September my cousin will be getting married. While it's not a long list I know there will be many more exciting things to come.
As a new year begins I have to think back on all the things that have occurred in the previous year. And as I do I come to realize I'm not the same person I was this time last year. Many big things happened in 2014, some good some bad, some unexpected some I had been waiting for.My girlfriend of a year and a half broke up and left me heartbroken. She's now dating someone else and I'm still trying to find out how to move on. I graduated from high school which was even more exciting than I expected. I started college 570 miles away from home. Which has been the best experience of my life. My cousin got engaged to a great guy. I've gained new friends. I've lost some old ones. I've become more independent and I've grown to know myself. 2014 has been a wild ride with many ups and downs. But both the highs and lows in our lives make us who we are and shape us as people. I know that sounds like some bullshit people say in bad times but I think it's true.
I'm hoping that 2015 is a good year. But I hope that whenever bad moments come I remember they are temporary and if I get through them good times will come.
I'm terrible at making and sticking to my normal new years resolutions. But I'm going to try once again to make some and stick to them.
1. Read more. Reread. Read something new. Anything I can get my hands on.
2. Enjoy life and live it fully. Find happiness. Get excited about small things and big things.
3. Study and do well in school. Getting that degree is important to me.
Happy New Year's Day and I hope you have a great year!
