Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end ...

So as 2010 draws to a close, I feel like I should be posting a deep and meaningful blog about the year. A uleogy of sorts perhaps. I'll give it my best shot but chances are, it will be nothing special.

This year has been one of the most stressful, hectic, enjoyable years of my life so far. It's been jam packed with decisions and forks in the road that the rest of my life depends on. In the last twelve months I have:

• decided on a career path
• decided on a study path
• made plans to move out
• started looking properly for a job
• made a lot of personal changes.

For me, this year has been huge. Some parts have made me want to run away and hide until it had all blown over, but some parts have made me wish I could replay them forever. 2010 has been a real mixed bag for me, but it has been wonderful.  I've made some of the best friends I've ever had in my life and I've also lost some friends.  But you have to take the good with the bad, right?

I'm sure that the people important to me know just how wonderful I think they are, even if I don't say it all too often. But I love every single person in my life. I couldn't be more thankful for good friends. I see my friends as the family I choose for myself and I couldn't ask for a better bunch of people. I love you guys.

This was the year of my 18th birthday. A big step for the baby of the family, who never really wanted to grow up. I may be an adult now, but by no means am I grown up. I'm still as immature as I was at 15 and sometimes, I couldn't be happier with that fact. The next few years of my life will be even more trying than the last I'll bet and so, I'll probably blog a lot more- ranting and raving about my life.

I can't wait for new years. I'm spending it with a bunch of the best people I know- it should be freakin' awesome.  I hope everyone has a wonderful (and safe!!) new year celebration and I'll see you all in 2011!
